[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]Welcome to Day 11 of 365! You’ll find our stories of the day – past, present & future (events) – right here on today’s DailyPage.
Because every day has its own rhythm, we’re sharing a song of the day here at 365Barrington.com.
Today’s features American blues musician Slim Harpo. His most successful and influential recordings included ‘I’m a King Bee’ (1957), ‘Rainin’ In My Heart’ (1961), and ‘Baby Scratch My Back’ (1966). A master of the blues harmonica, Slim’s stage name was derived from the popular nickname for that instrument, the “harp”. He was born on this day, January 11th, in 1924.
One of my first jobs was as a radio DJ hosting a blues show at WEFT 90.1 fm Community Radio as a freshman at University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign. They had walls and walls of vintage vinyl which sort of blew my mind. Ok so it might not have been a paid gig but it was THE BEST! I loved every minute because I appreciate how some music takes you back… in the same way memories of your grandmother connect you to a fascinating world before your time.[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_column_text]

We took the beloved Roman-style pizza and elevated it. If you’ve never tried Roman-style pizza before, get ready to be surprised—it’s lighter, crispier, and more delicious than you could imagine.

🌟 Client Bright Spot 🌟
Each Friday, I ask my CFB Nutrition clients to share a “bright spot” from their week — something that made them feel proud, empowered, or simply joyful.
This one stopped me in my tracks:
💬 "All three of my kids can wrap their arms around me again."
Yes — losing weight, shedding body fat, improving health markers… those things are incredible. But this? This is what it`s really about.
✨ It’s about getting your life back.
✨ It’s about being present for the people you love.
✨ It’s about feeling connected to your body — and your purpose.
✨ It’s about moments that a scale could never measure.
Non-scale victories like this remind us why we show up every day.
If you`re ready to experience what it`s like to really take control of your health — and gain more than you ever thought possible — the CFB Nutrition Program is here for you.
📝 Ready to start your journey? DM me or click the link in bio to join the CFB Nutrition Program. Let’s create your next bright spot. 💛
