See :: The Masked Singer. Obsessed with this show. My guesses have usually been solid on this show up until this new season where I’ve yet to guess a single revealed contestant correctly.

Do :: Make these bacon crackers. How something so simple could be so delicious is mind-blowing. Maybe follow it up with this parmesan popcorn.

Read :: Things I Bought and Liked. Highly entertaining, and the recommendations are always spot on. Love her Instagram page and the blog is a great, quick resource of products that have been tried and tested.

Learn :: How to arrange pillows, because apparently they are “jewelry for the room.” I can’t quit you, Pottery Barn!

Tuesday Tidbits {02.04.20}

See :: Anne with an “E”. A fan of the books and the 1980’s movies, I wasn’t sure what to expect from this retelling. It’s darker, for sure…diving deep into Anne’s abusive childhood with flashbacks and sending Gilbert on adventures most adults wouldn’t brave…but two seasons in, I’m addicted. Devastated there is only one more season to go, which won’t nearly cover the romance between Anne and Gilbert. I’m in the “depths of despair” over this.

Do :: Update your LinkedIn profile. If you haven’t updated the content of your profile in some time, you’re doing yourself a disservice. Your skill sets may have expanded, you may have spoken on an emerging topic or you may just not look like that headshot you had taken straight out of college anymore. The new year is a great time to revisit how to differentiate yourself from the crowd.

Read :: The Official DC Super Hero Cookbook: 60+ Simple, Tasty Recipes for Growing Super Heroes. My son is an INSANELY picky eater. Seriously, thank goodness for breakfast foods, chicken nuggets, yogurt and vitamins, because it has been the only thing keeping him alive for years now. He originally found this book at the library and loved it so much that we purchased it from Amazon. He actually wants to make — AND TRY — food from this book. Even if it’s only a taste, we’re trending in the right direction. So far, he loves the Superman smoothie — which is the first bit of spinach to hit his body in about five years.

Learn :: All of the travel hacks for our upcoming cruise vacation. Facebook groups, forums, Pinterest — I’m am hitting them all for the best ideas as to what we should bring with us on our upcoming cruise. While the hubs and I were avid cruisers BC (before child), this is our first time back on the high seas with our wee man in tow. And we’re taking him on a cruise, where literally all there is to do is eat. Here’s hoping that superhero cookbook works miracles.

F5 :: FIVE FOR FRIDAY {7.27.18}

July 27, 2018 by playworkrepeat Leave a Comment

This week seemed like a marathon. Corporate events, industry events and…you know, work in general…had this home body living for Friday all week long. With those seemingly impossible deadlines nearly behind me, I say a very hearty “welcome” to the weekend!

New York City

::1:: I’ll admit it, I’m a fangirl of America’s Got Talent. I first watched the show in 2016 and became instantly hooked. I absolutely cannot wait for the live shows, but am also very happy the human fountains are behind us so I can hold down my dinner on Tuesday nights again.

::2:: In other amazing television news, this BBC America gem, Killing Eve, is a must watch. The acting is stellar, the storyline is fascinating and the characters are so compelling. It will be interesting to see how the season ends!

::3:: During a sale this Summer, I bought a Beauty Bioscience GloPRO. I’m not going to lie…I was TERRIFIED this microneedling tool was going to hurt, so it sat for a couple of weeks before I (drank a lot of wine first and then) used it. I swear, it does not hurt and I feel like I’ve seen results even using it only sparingly. I wouldn’t lie — this body has ZERO threshold for pain.

::4:: Speaking of pain…why, why, why are corporate events SO PAINFUL for marketing staff?! The industry in which I work is not known for its happy employees, but the amount of complaining at an incredibly successful event was at an all-time epic level this year. Perhaps if they knew complaining was bad for your health, they would start to smile every now and again.

::5:: In practicing what I preach, writing a list of things I’m grateful for and excited about every day has been helpful in rewiring my mindset in a more positive direction. You must be so sick of me saying it, but this Panda Planner has truly been life changing.  What surprised me was how hard it was — especially at first — to come up with even one thing I was grateful and/or excited for. And my life is pretty darn good, but I was so focused on trying to mitigate the negative that I wasn’t seeing the positive right in front of me.  Just like an instrument or language, a positive mindset requires practice.
