K8 & GINK

^{The sisters known as the Internet! 👯‍♀️}

In last Sunday’s edition, we talked about the importance of eating with the family. This week, I want to share how I am the odd one who loves to try new foods, especially seafood (except cooked fish). K8, on the other hand, is notorious for being a picky eater—chicken fingers for life!

When I was younger, 🧬 and 🦷 would try to get me to behave with small bribes, which were always food-related. Like every young person, I had to get shots from the doctor as I got older. Initially, these shots didn't go well for me until I was bribed with sushi. If I behaved for every shot, I was promised a sushi dinner.

When I was seven years old, one Friday night, 🧬 took us to a restaurant to get the lobster special for himself. When it came to the table, I freaked out a little because the eyes and antennae were staring at me throughout dinner. The following Friday, 🧬 wanted another lobster special, so we went back to the same restaurant. This time, I asked if I could order one for myself. 🧬 and 🦷 were shocked and excited to see me cracking and eating my own lobster.

As I got older, I started trying more and more seafood—clams in Rhode Island, fried clams, shrimp cocktails, and lobster rolls by the ocean. I've enjoyed oysters in New Orleans, Chicago, New York, and wherever K8 takes me on an adventure.

In 2022, K8, Sierra, and I went to New Orleans for my bachelorette party. One evening, we went to dinner, and I asked Sierra if she would share a dozen oysters with me. When they came to the table, they were so big that Sierra tapped out after her third one. But for me, it was like having a small slice of heaven on our table!

It's funny, though. Every time I send a picture of my oysters to 🧬, he always tells me I'm going to end up with hepatitis. I always tell him, “Well, at least I’ll die happy.”

Whenever I am near the ocean or truly in relaxation mode, you’ll definitely be seeing me ordering some sort of seafood!

I can’t wait to visit Morgan and Merek in TC to shuck our own oysters!!!!! 💙

SMALL WINS

^{Let’s dive into the *~magic~*!} ✨

In a world that's all about the big moments, it's time to give props to the small wins—like finally nailing that thing you put off & it only taking 5 minutes, catching a breather mid-chaos or hustling through a workout when you'd rather binge, Bridgerton. They might not make an impact, but these wins? They're the rizz to leveling up. So, let’s celebrate our accomplishments and manifest for the week ahead.
