[vc_row][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Welcome to This Day in Barrington History” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]Good morning and welcome to February 20 and Day 51 of 365 in Barrington, Illinois! 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.
On this day, February 20, the band Coldplay’s second album, A Rush Of Blood won Best British Album at the 2003 Brit Awards. One of our favorite songs from this album is ‘Clocks‘ which was released on November 4th, 2002. ‘Clocks’ was written and composed during the late stages of the album’s production. A riff popped into lead singer, Chris Martin’s mind late one night in Liverpool when he came into the studio, where he then developed it on piano. According to Martin, ‘Clocks’ was inspired by the English rock band, Muse.

The incredible, edible egg! (remember that?!)
At gigi, Chefs Jessen & Mario have taken this humble kitchen staple and turned it into something truly special. A soft-boiled egg, dressed with anchovy aioli, crisp frisée, osetra noir caviar, trout roe, fresh chive, and housemade croutons.
The perfect start to your meal, there’s umami, there’s salinity, there’s sweetness, and there’s textural contrast. It’s also the perfect size and really prepares your tastebuds for the gigi experience. IYKYK.
Try it for yourself the next time you stop in — reservations at the link in bio!

📞 Your future self from January 1st, 2026 just called…
And she wants to know—how did you take care of her the second half of 2025?
There are 6 months left in the year.
Before you race ahead, pause and reflect:
💭 From January to June:
• What were your 5 most energizing moments?
• What were your 5 most exhausting ones?
Now ask yourself:
✨ When did you feel your best? Were you sleeping well? Moving consistently? Eating food that actually fueled you?
😩 And when did things feel hard? Were you skipping meals, staying up late, running on stress and caffeine?
Let’s learn from that and be more intentional with the next 6 months.
🗓 Block time for the things that help you feel like YOU:
• Nourishing meals (not just grabbing snacks between errands)
• Walks or workouts that lift your mood
• Quality sleep schedules
• Saying no to things that drain you
You don’t need a total overhaul—just small shifts that compound over time.
✨ If you’re ready to create a routine that supports your goals and your life, my 1:1 CFB Nutrition Coaching is here to help.
Together we’ll dial in your food, movement, sleep, stress, and mindset so you can finish 2025 strong—and feel proud of how you showed up.
