16 Things You Didn’t Know About Fixer Upper’s Chip and Joanna Gaines – Anyone else obsessed with Chip and Joanna? We refer to them by their first names in our house. I’m actually kind of in love with Chip, mostly because he reminds me so much of Mal. And, of course, I LOVE their decorating style. It’s exactly what I want in my forever home.
Big Spring Sale at Athleta – Lots of markdowns on great gear! Woohoo!
Canyon Bakehouse Gluten-Free Bread – FINALLY! A gluten-free bread that actually tastes good. Hallelujah! Mal found this brand at Whole Foods and, wow, it’s good. (He bought the 7-Grain.) He made me a sandwich with it the other day, and I actually thought it was regular, gluten-filled bread. It’s THAT good.
An open letter to aspiring exercisers who parent young children – This made me laugh.

P.S. Be sure to enter my giveaway to win a gift card to Massage Envy! I will pick a winner on Monday morning.
Such a fun post! I love reading your posts. I also love Fixer Upper – my mom and I are obsessed – we even get my dad in on watching. There are lots of fun links today that I will definitely go back and look through. I barely sweat working out – which is frustrating when I work really hard it doesn’t always look like I have – ha!
I think beer infused ice cream would be better after all they do make good root beer floats! I’m loving those mini Justin’s pb dark chocolate we got in our Blend swag.
Yes!!
@Megan @ Skinny Fitalicious: I’ve had stout ice cream before and it was awesome.
A gluten-free bread I think is awesome is Udi’s Ancient Grains chia-millet bread. I’m not even gluten-sensitive and I love it!
The wine ice cream is actually really good! It’s made sort of locally to where I live in Northern Ny. They ship on dry ice, you should try it!
Fixer Upper is my favorite show! I want them to help me find a house. Their finished products always look amazing, and they’re SO cool! Can I just be friends with them please?
Love Fixer Upper and Joanna designs are amazing!!
Tina – try the Canyon Ranch Gluten Free cinnamon raisin bread – it’s awesome and would make killer cinna-raisin French toast!
Love these links. Ummm wine ice cream!? It’s like killing two birds with one stone! And when I run or spin I’m like an 8.5 out of 10 in sweatiness. But lifting I’m at likeeee a 6.5/7. Hope you have a great long weekend!
I sweat like crazy! Reminds me of that part in Sandlot when Ham says he’s “baking like a toasted cheese”. That’s what I feel like when I workout. My face also gets bright red, so that certainly adds to my attractive look. But I don’t care as long as I get a good workout!
It depends on the season, but I’d say I’m as sweaty as a rating of 4.
I love Chip and Joanna, I want to move to Waco, TX just to be on their show. I can’t wait to try the Canyon Bakehouse Bread, thanks for sharing!
LOVE LOVE LOVE those empathy cards! So perfect, I want to buy them all!!
I’ve had the wine ice cream before. It’s… interesting. I’m not really a “fruity” type ice cream girl, though. I think I’d rather have a glass of wine with some cookie dough swirl 🙂
I am a horrifically sweaty runner, and that article was really interesting! It used to be so bad that I’d just think about running, and start sweating — seriously! I also sweat when I’m sleeping, no matter the temperature of the room. My husband is one lucky guy.
that bacon and egg tart looks like perfection!!
That bacon + eggs tart?!?! Yes please! And yeah, I’m a super sweaty person … like 7-8? Of course more when I’m exercising and such. Sexy, I know.
The Canyon Ranch gluten free Cinnamon Raisin is soooo good. With almond butter + coconut on top. Yes!!!
I LOVE those sympathy cards. I need to buy all of them. Ha!
I LOVE Fixer Upper! I’m secretly hoping we get stationed in Texas next so we can enter to have Chip and Joanna redo a house for us. I love their style. They haven’t done anything I don’t love!
I love Chip so much – I have a tiny crush on him.
I would want to get a deep tissue massage for neck, shoulders and back because I sit at a desk 39 hrs a week. I want to watch Fixer Upper now have never seen it! I’m probably a 2-3 on the sweaty scale, I’ve always been surprised I don’t sweat more…
H
That is my favorite GF bread; my Target sells it. I toast it — so good!!
I’ve seen that wine ice cream before but never actually got it to try… sounds like it could be really good or really weird… haha!
I would love to try that wine infused ice cream. I want to get it for our girls’ nights when we watch The Bachelorette! That would be such a fun addition. Have a great weekend!
I LOVE FIXER UPPER! I’m actually watching it right now!
Chip and Joanna are close friends of a good friend of mine and apparently they are just as lovely in real life. She said seeing them on TV is uncanny because they really are just like that.
I’ve had that wine ice cream. It’s actually really tasty!
That’s good to hear! I want to try it!
Fixer Upper is easily my favorite show on HGTV. Joanna and Chip are the best, and he’s always making me laugh since he’s such a goof.
Great list, thanks. Alcohol infused ice cream sounds great as long as it’s vegan too. 🙂 I occasionally watch Fixer Upper, great inspiration. And I’m a huge sweater, especially since getting into running!
As someone who HAS to eat gluten-free bread, it makes me cringe when people who don’t need it eat it. I just want people to enjoy real bread like I wish I could! What’s your reason for eating gf bread but still eating gluten from other sources? Previously you said you liked the taste better but this post seems to say otherwise. Absolutely no judgement, just extremely curious! 🙂
I am only a 4 or 5 on the sweatiness scale; it totally depends on what I’m doing. And I don’t know about wine ice cream…. I gave tried beer flavored ice cream and did not like it AT ALL. Maybe wine would be better?
I discovered that bread at Target a few weeks ago!!!
I need to start buying it there. I bet it’s a whole lot cheaper!
I LOVE LOVE LOVE fixer upper! That article is so fun!!
I’m an 8 on the sweaty scale especially after spinning!!! I don’t think I’d like wine ice cream…rum and whiskey is a hole other story!
I like wine and I like ice cream, but not sure if I want to combine the two…would need a taste test!!
Love Fixer Upper and really every HGTV program, good stuff!
I’m a sweater, always need a towel at the gym, especially at spin!
Have a great Memorial Day weekend!
ooh definitely going to go check out that sale at athleta!
Watching Love it or List it as we speak. Cannot get enough of these shows!!!
Have an amazing weekend!
I love Chip and Joanna! I mean seriously. ..who doesn’t!?!?!?
Canyon Bakehouse IS the best GF bread. You can get it much cheaper at Target!
Yes, I’m totally intrigued by the wine ice cream. Happy Friday, Tina! 🙂
That shelter dogs on their freedom rides link made me cry! But a good kind of crying, so I guess that’s OK.
I am a huge ice cream lover, but I don’t know if I could get behind the wine-infused flavors. But hey, I won’t knock it until I try it!
Canyon River Bakehouse is the best! There are other flavors but multigrain definitely wins in my book. You can even keep it in the freezer- put in the toaster and it is delicious 🙂
I’m a 2 on the sweaty scale. I used to be told I wasn’t working hard enough until people actually saw me work out.
I am 10+ on the sweaty scale – I am a sweaty beast! A workout towel is a necessity for me.
Me too!
I LOVE chip and Joanna. We talk about them in our home too, as if they are our best friends, we are major creepsters. My husband and I just purchased a fixer upper of our own and so I need to channel my inner JoJo.
I love these posts – you always find such a good array of links! I live like a mile or so away from Canyon Bakehouse and it always smells so good when I ride my bike by there – I haven’t had their bread though, but might have to give it a try soon. I am also a big fan of Fixer Upper — their style is awesome!
I love Fixer Upper! I started planning my gym visits around when that show is on because I don’t get HGTV at home.
