Listen, Honey! I'm Back from The Beach Blessed by the Thrift Gods

Listen, Honey! Y'all know I was heading to the beach for a birthday vacation, right? Well, Lucy, Dylan and I met up with Hannah and James at Panama City, Florida last week and had the best time. It was a little cooler than beach weather so we really just hung out and let the kids run around, but sometimes that's just what you need to restore your soul, right? We're at home this week and honestly, I am beat. But I figured it was a good idea to record a little at home episode to fill you in on all the fun we had and places we recommend. Of course, I also go over the pre-vacation part of vacation, which is as important as the vacation itself. I explain the obsession I have right now with meat. Especially ground beef. I'm not one to start a conspiracy theory, but I am a little paranoid about our food system and think we should all be watching it closer than we are. I've been a little suspicious that the meat I'm getting at the store just ain't right. So I have been tracking down some local beef farmers and would encourage you to do the same. I found some and the taste is just better, y'all. At any rate, the ground beef we got at one of our first restaurants in Panama City was about raw. I don't do that, so I wound up cooking most of the time rather than eating out. Although, when you go to Panama City, you have to stop at Thomas Donuts at least twice.  As I say in the episode, if they don't have their Chocolate-Covered Cream-Filled Long Johns in Heaven, I'm gonna have to talk to somebody. But the highlight of the trip was that the Thrift Gods smiled on ya girl! I left Goodwill with no less than two full buggies. And that doesn't count the Salvation Army or the thrift stores Hannah went to with me. I got dresses for me and Lucy, shorts, a purse and all kinds of other things. There's more details in the episode so give it a full listen! And I got off track with my GLP1 and ate too much sugar all week, so I feel like I've been run over by a truck. But I'm cleansing and recuperating this week, so I'll be back to feeling better real soon. Even though I did for a few days, I want to make sure you don't forget Amble. They're helping me on my weight loss journey and vacation aside, I've lost 80 pounds! Sign up and join the journey at joinamble.com.  Listen, Honey! Is produced by Jason Falls at Falls+Partners.
