Top Five Friday : Getting HOT HOT HOT

And just like that, it's summertime in Pittsburgh.  Last week I was running in temperatures in the 30s and 40s, and now all of a sudden we're in the 90s!  How does that happen?!  Luckily I love warm weather and I'm looking forward to spending a lot of time outside this weekend.  We have some fun plans which include checking off some breweries on my "Tour de Beer" list, and hope to get in some hikes with Selma.  I hope you have a sunny and happy weekend as well!

Song : Despacito Remix 

I feel like I've been hearing this song everywhere lately, and I don't even care because it's SO GOOD.  It makes me want to dance every time it's on (which means I had to put it on my running playlist!).  It's catchy and I think it'll be my summer anthem.

Podcast : Girls Gone WOD

I've been listening to this podcast for a really long time, but have to mention it now!  Joy and Claire (the two hosts of the podcast) just started a Whole30 and are documenting their experience every single day.  I've gone through two Whole30's myself and had a great experience with them, so if you're thinking about trying one out or want to learn more, I would suggest listening to their thoughts, which are being shared in real time!  Plus- this is a Crossfit podcast, which means that they'll be covering the Regional competition that starts today, as well as the Games later this summer!

Product : Suave Kids Detangler

I'm not embarrassed to say that this is my all-time favorite hair product.  Not only does it do a great job of detangling my hair (which can get really knotty if I'm not careful), but it also smells amazing.  I use this after my shower to help me comb through my hair, and it leaves my hair silky smooth and with no knots.  If anyone here follows Alina Gonzalez (aka thehyperbalist) on Instagram, I also use this as part of her #lifechanging air dry hair tip!  It works perfectly, and I've loved having wavy, air dried hair lately.

Show : First Dates

I admit that when I heard the premise of this show I thought it would be really dumb and cheesy, but I'm actually obsessed with it and binge-watched every available episode!  The show follows couples (usually about four per episode) as they have their first date.  There are interviews with each person before, during and after the date, as well as a couple interview where it gets awkward and the producers ask if there will be a second date.  It's a really sweet show that shows so many different types of people in a raw and authentic way.  I highly recommend it!

Random : Team Bonding

This week was my group's annual All Hands meeting, where we had presentations and activities all week.  This is always a really educational week, where we get to learn about different projects and teams in my group, as well as do some deep dives into emerging trends in the industry.  We always get to do a fun group activity as well, to get to know people in other groups on a more casual and social level.  This year, we got to make tricycles and wagons, and decorate canvas bags that we filled with books that were going to be donated to local non profits.  We also played a very competitive puzzle game, where my team ended up having one of the best scores!  It was a long week with 12 hour work days, but it was so nice to get to interact with new people and find out what's happening across the company.
