[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]Welcome to January 23rd and Day 23 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, January 23rd in 1988, The California Raisins’ Motown Classic “I Heard It Through The Grapevine” peaks at #84 on Billboard’s Hot 100. Written by Norman Whitfield and Barrett Strong for Motown Records, the song was first recorded by Smokey Robinson and the Miracles in 1966, released as a single by Gladys Knight and the Pips in 1967 followed by Marvin Gaye’s classic version in 1968. But remember when “I Heard it Through the Grapevine” got new life in 1987, when it was used in commercials for California Raisins, with claymation raisins performing the song? This one takes you back! I was 15 about ears old…
[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column width=”1/2″][vc_text_separator title=”Song of the Day” title_align=”separator_align_left”][vc_column_text]In addition to boosting raisin sales, the California Raisins became an ’80s fad and were the most popular Halloween costume that year.
Because I’m on sort of a Creedence Clearwater Revival kick, I thought I’d also share their version, first recorded for their 1970 album, Cosmo’s Factory, ultimately reaching 43 on Billboard’s chart. I could listen to this one on repeat!

Still starting over every Monday? 👀
You ate great all week… then Friday night happened.
Dinner out. Drinks. Pizza. Maybe some dessert.
And suddenly it feels like you “blew it,” so you might as well enjoy the rest of the weekend and start fresh Monday.
Sound familiar?
Here’s the thing 👉 you don’t need another fresh start. You need habits you don’t have to keep starting over.
One meal doesn’t ruin your progress. One weekend doesn’t erase everything you did all week.
Have the pizza. Enjoy the birthday cake. Go out with your friends.
Then come back to your normal habits at the next meal.
This is a HUGE part of what we work on in my 1:1 Nutrition Coaching Program.
We’re not looking for another diet you can follow perfectly for a few weeks. We’re building realistic habits that work with your actual life — weekends, vacations, busy schedules, dinners out and everything in between.
Because the goal isn’t to be perfect.
The goal is to finally get out of the cycle of being “good,” falling off, feeling guilty and starting over again.
Ready to stop starting over?
Schedule a FREE nutrition consultation with me through the link in our bio and let’s talk about how 1:1 nutrition coaching can help you reach your goals. 💪🥦

25 minutes. Just you, your pace, and a whole lot of work. 😮💨
Bike. Lateral box step overs. Walking lunges. Double unders. Repeat… and repeat… and repeat. 🔁
Nothing fancy. Just one of those workouts where everyone puts their head down, settles in and gets after it.
The best part? Looking around the room and seeing everyone working right alongside you. 🔥
Strong people. Good energy. Another day at CFB. ❤️💙

What a gorgeous morning for a stroll through Citizens Park and the gardens at Journey Care.
Happy Monday all!

🍽️ What does 100g of protein in a day actually look like?
Hitting your protein goal doesn’t mean living on chicken and protein shakes.
When you spread protein throughout your meals and snacks, it becomes much more realistic—and your body will thank you.
💪 Supports muscle maintenance & recovery
⚡ Helps keep your energy steady
🍽️ Keeps you fuller for longer
🧠 Supports healthy aging and overall wellness
Start simple: aim to include a quality protein source with every meal, and build from there.
Small choices. Consistent habits. Big results. 🙌
