Life, My Favorites

Friday Favorites

November 7, 2014

I’ve seen other bloggers and vloggers do these Friday Favorites posts.  I’ve even done several YouTube videos with this title in the past.  I may add this as a new series here on my blog.  My favorites will be things that I’ve loved during the week.  It will include beauty, food, life, etc.  So, without further ado, here are this week’s Friday Favorites:

1.  This was one of my favorite meals.  It’s a spaghetti squash marinara casserole from Tru Foods.  My mouth is watering just thinking about it.

IMG_9852 2.  This donut shop in the the Farmers Market at the Grove in LA had the best donut holes ever!  I went there twice in the 4 days we were in LA and even brought some home with me.

3.  This Wet n Wild matte lipstick in Mauve Outta Here is so pretty.  I wore it most days this week.

4.  I’m loving the fall temperatures that have finally made an appearance here in Texas.

5.  I’m loving my new Fitbit.  I lost my Fitbit One a few weeks ago and replaced it with the Fitbit Zip.  There’s not much difference except that this new one doesn’t track my sleep, which I wasn’t tracking anyway.  I need to get back into my walking routine.  If you use a Fitbit tracker and want to be friends, request me at thejools123@gmail.com

Did you have any favorite things this week?

    Hi Stacie, I love the lipstick color you shared! Matte lipsticks are a nice change from shiny lipstick or lipgloss! I bought wet n wild nail polish recently in a brown color that is nice and i’ve gotten a lot of compliments on it. You don’t always have to spend a lot of money on makeup!

    I love all your favourites especially Bob’s! We went there about 5 years ago! I tried pumpkin ice-cream for the very first time from there and LOVED it. I also tried an apple doughnut which was to die for. I can’t wait to go back there one day.

    Thanks so much for saying g’day. Have a great week.

Just a few of the gems I picked up from the Nordst Just a few of the gems I picked up from the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale 💛 

After trying on a dozen dresses, these two made the cut (I’m 5’1” and 60 years old) as well as this gorgeous new bag that I couldn’t resist. Classic, versatile, and a little fun—just how I like it!

✨ Which look is your favorite? Tell me in the comments and let me know if you’re shopping the sale too!

Bonus, both dresses are under $100 and I know I’ll wear them for a long time to come. Let me know if you want the links.💖

At 60 years old, I’m walking with intention — At 60 years old, I’m walking with intention — and a weighted vest. Adding this simple tool to my daily walk is already making a difference in how I feel, move, and show up for myself.

Here’s why women over 50 might want to give it a try:
1️⃣ Supports Bone Health: Extra weight = gentle resistance = stronger bones = less chance of fractures in the future.
2️⃣ Improves Muscle Tone & Posture: Great for balance and core strength.
3️⃣ Burns More Calories: A simple walk becomes a low-impact strength workout.
P.S. It’s great for men & women of all ages!💪🏼

It’s never too late to level up your wellness routine. And you can get the benefits while doing your house chores, going up and down stairs, gardening, etc. for even more opportunities to improve bone density.

Do you walk with a weighted vest too? I’d love to hear how it’s helped you!

Comment LINK for more information on this particular vest and why I purchased it after a lot of research.💗 (be sure to follow to receive my message with the link).⚠️

I couldn’t resist this audio! It’s been in my I couldn’t resist this audio! It’s been in my back pocket for a while just waiting for the right moment to use it.😂😂

We all want what we don’t have… I’ve always wanted straight thin hair, but my genetics decided that wasn’t in the cards.

Anyway, this root touch up powder is my new best friend for covering my grays roots between salon touch ups (which happen more frequently these days).😅

It’s a clean beauty formula too! Let me know if you want a link to purchase it for yourself. It’s available in 5 different shades. I’m using the medium brown.

By the way, I turned 60 years old a few months ago and love sharing beauty, fashion, life stuff and my travels. If that sounds like something you’re interested in, then follow my account and let’s be midlife friends. It’s harder to find friends at this stage in our lives and this platform is where I’ve found some of my besties.💗💗
