If you need a laugh today, scroll to the bottom for Grey’s reaction to his very first rollercoaster. There have been a lot of firsts this trip, and there is nothing like seeing your child light up with a sparkle you haven’t yet seen before, and a new core childhood memory unlocked. What a gift 🥹. Today’s Scrolls has a little shimmer for all of us – a scrumptious (and healthy!) fruit dip, 3 movement motivators if you need a swing in the right direction, and mind-blowing links we loved this week to top it off (including how to save a life). Welcome – we’re so glad you’re here!

Meals

Oh MY is this dip delicious. If you’re looking for a fun fruit dip with a twist to bring to your next bbq, might we suggest this one? It’s only 5 ingredients, a healthy serving of protein to balance your blood sugar, and you can dip anything from pretzels, fruit, graham crackers – whatever you fancy!
