Heyyyyyy! Happy FRIDAY!
It’s Friday and you guys know what that means: What I’m Loving Lately! Sorry that I am getting this post up a little later than usual. Quinn slept late this morning (7:15 AM!!!), which means his morning nap was much later. It seems like he’s on his way to one nap, but we shall see. Yesterday, he took two short naps (1:15 + 0:30) at daycare and then went to bed without an issue, so who knows. We’re just going with it. Anyway, here’s what I’m lovely lately!

I am totally an introvert too! I think a lot of bloggers are. That sunscreen idea is brilliant! I’m going to check it out the next time I’m in Boston!
Sunscreen dispensers — that’s amazing!!
THANK YOU for sharing our campaign Tina!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Happy Friday, Tina! š Hope you have a wonderful weekend. And I love that sunscreen dispenser!
Those lunches look amazing! I’ve definitely hit a lull with what I bring to work with me, so this is great. Have an awesome weekend!
Love the sunscreen dispenser, that’s so cool!
TJ’s has some great stuff! I’m now addicted to the milk chocolate jumbles. But I’m sad to say I wasn’t a fan of the PB&J yogurt š
Thank you sooo much Tina and General Mills! I got my 2 boxes of free cereal today along with a great letter about GM’s journey to removal articifial junk from all their cereals! Yahoooo!
Chickpea cookie dough is something I make for my siblings and they have no idea that it’s good!
I can confirm. Chickpea cookie dough is everyyyything.
Yays. Happy friday. Free sunscreen in the park is the best idea ever. This needs to be done all over the country. This can really save lives.
Chickpea cookie dough! That sounds amazing! Great articles!
Two things. First, I have not seen those Trader Joe’s sweet potatoes chips! They looks delicious. Second, those sunscreen dispensers are fantastic. I hope it spreads to other parts of the US. Thanks for sharing this great list of things you are enjoying now!
I love these posts so much. I’m sure they are time consuming to put together so I appreciate the great links. I especially loved what they don’t tell you about motherhood and how to be a successful introvert, thank you!
I had the PB&J yogurt yesterday! I was really excited about it, but…it’s terrible.
Oh, man, you’re the second person who has that said. Maybe I’ll skip it then.
The chickpea cookie dough is sooo yummy!
OMG the sunblock dispenser is genius!
CHICKPEA cookie dough? I’ve made the raw kind with a cashew base but never with chickpeas… curious š
Those work friendly lunches look really tasty!
Ooh those protein bars look good!!!
I will have to look for those sweet potato tortilla chips on my next trip to Trader Joe’s! Have a great weekend, Tina.
Sunblock dispenser?! Genius!! If only this could be the factor that convinces us how a small difference in our daily habit can be life saving! š What was the SPF ?
The sunscreen dispenser is an amazing idea.
That chickpea cookie dough looks yummy!
I wanna make the chickpea protein snack, I saw that on Katie’s blog once. Not sure if the recipes are the same. I saw those TJ sweet potato chips, I knew they would be good, but I didn’t wanna too crazy on chips.
Next time š
