Here's the Last Melon... {LM Weekly Update}

Hi Reader, My husband and I quote a lot of movies - dumb movies and great movies. Kid movies and classic movies. One of our most quoted? "The last melon" from Ice Age. The animals encounter a colony of Dodo birds prepping for the Ice Age. They have one female, who sadly meets her demise, and 3 watermelons to last them "underground for a billion, billion years." Pretty soon they're down to the last melon....and then no more melons (or Dodo birds for that matter). So with that silly mindset,...

Hi Reader, The weather finally turned this week. We've had chilly mornings, some rain even (yay!) and I'm starting to look for the layers I have packed away in my winter clothes storage!! I wasn't sure I was ready for cool weather, but it feels good. I want to hang onto this early Fall for a while now!! A few fun things to share. We visited Chico, California last weekend. I grew up 20 minutes away and am back frequently, but my husband and I got to play tourist and had a lot of new...

Hi Reader! I've mentioned many times before my love of Beautycounter skincare and the news earlier this year about the company hitting pause...until 2025! 😢 BUT, affiliates (like me!) have an opportunity to buy products for a short time and that time is NOW! 🥳 Below are some questions and answers I hope will help you. Ordering will be done through me. I will be in direct contact with you before placing your order via email, Instagram, or Facebook Messenger. You will need to send money to me...

I love the Nordstrom Anniversary Sale. I know - sustainable Luci? But, yes!! I don't throw everything out the window when it comes to shopping the sale either. I look only for sustainable brands, eco-friendly materials, and/or a specific need in my closet. Often I hit 2 of these, and frequently I can hit all 3! The sale often sells out of some items really fast, but there are still SO MANY good things available... This black leather jacket has been a mainstay in my closet for nearly a decade....

Hello you fabulous person! Many of you have caught up that Beautycounter is going to be MIA for the next few months. I shared it briefly on my Instagram and then in my general Luci's Morsels newsletter. But I wanted to share a little more of the whole story and then some great alternatives because I refuse to let any of us not use glorious skin products to look fabulous all the time! So. The BC story. Basically, the founder of the company sold the company to an investment group about 5 years...

Hi Reader, It's been a few weeks, but we're home. We started our trek back from Edinburgh (a few days spent after our trip to Ireland) last Saturday night. A short flight to London and a night in the hotel before 3 flights home. In reality, it was a straightforward trip home, but the 1-hour delay on our last flight from Seattle may have sent our emotional functioning past the point of no return. But. The real question....did we have any luggage mishaps?! No!!! I thought we handled the no...

Hi Reader, I just started reading another non-fiction book - Liz Moody's 100 Ways to Change Your Life. I'm not very far in, so I don't have a review yet, but there's a chapter (all of which are 2-3 pages by the way) about doing N-of-1 experiments and it resonated loudly with me. Basically the idea is that while an idea, practice, or belief might work for many people, it may not work for YOU. It encourages you to do an N-of-1 experiment where there is only one person (you) in the experiment...

Hi Reader, I just finished reading Atomic Habits by James Clear. I'm actually not a big fan of "self-help" and business motivation books.I find them frustrating more than motivational. And I usually read before bed, which is NOT when I want to read such things. A friend of mine, however, has a practice of reading 10 minutes of nonfiction first thing in the morning...so I thought I'd give it a try. Full disclosure, I took up this book as a suggestion because one of my biggest professional...

Hi Reader, I hope you are well. It's wet out there and my body is letting me know it's dry 🤪! As I've been sharing on IG, my skincare has kept my skin moisturized and happy for the first time in years during these dry winter months, but the rest of my body is letting me know it's a lil dry and needs some attention (and keep drinking water). There are a few exciting things to share with you!!! First, Beautycounter is offering FREE SHIPPING on all orders over $50 through January 31. Pretty...
