Happy Sunday and welcome to brunch with Desby. I'm your host Des also known as Desby here to provide you with your favorite way to start the week.

Every Sunday we explore new topics and dive into conversations that matter in some that truly do not tune in each week to smile learn something new and join your favorite brunch gang. Let's get into it.

Alleluia and God bless we have made it back to yet another beautiful week of brunch with Desby. I'm your host as always in the be today stands for badass tattooed muscle mommy brunch podcaster cool girl energy as well as the baddest cherry slush from Lonnie.

You guys can tell already have a different setup. I'm kind of trying to play around with it. This is new for me. This is my new mic. I'm kind of trying to figure out where does it need to be. How is it going to sit here because ultimately I don't want to have to like use my hand all the time like I don't want to have to hold a mic all the time.

So we're going to kind of play around with it and just see what this looks like and sounds like moving forward. But I am going to go ahead first and foremost and crack open a baby cherry slush. We're going to take a sip together because Sunday, fun day. We need to turn up. We need to get ready.

Oh, I've not had a cherry slush in about a week. You guys know I've been cutting back on my energy during conception. I was very open and honest about that. So I'm back in the game babe back in the game. I'm feeling good. It can't wait to give you guys a wellness corner update. We chat all things skin. We chat all things body physique.

It's fun. Everything and wellness, even when it comes down to just my current favorite lip glosses. Okay.

I always bring a drink down here and it's my toxic trait that I end up not drinking it. But first, let's get this elephant out of the room of how cute my sweatshirt is. Okay. I'm exercising. This is our DBFT merch for a spooky season collection launch, which I absolutely loved. We do it every single Halloween and it's just like my favorite time of year.

In spooky season, we have funny, witty shirts, merch, tumblers, flags. We have some brunch merch. So we have a lot of really great opportunities to find something that suits you that you can represent support quite literally a very small business and also have fun wearing and rocking. So that's elephant number one.

Elephant number two is the fact that I did get my hairy done again. This was like kind of embarrassing because within three weeks I had three different hairstyles.

And it was actually four. I had my hair before I went to Florida. I took my extensions out before I went to Florida, came back home, got my hair redone extensions in.

Then I got it fixed extensions are still in for volume, but I got my hair color and I got my hair cut. So you might be like, whoa, bitch, your hair was longer last week. Yes, it was.

And stop judging me for it. Okay, but we have a lot on our plate today. We have a lot to chat about a lot to talk about a lot going on a lot of pop culture, a lot of.

Honestly, maybe not as much pop culture this week because my life enough is my life enough is crazy. All right, my life is the pop culture. My life is the roundup for the week. My life is what you need to know.

We have a lot going on. So number one, I went to Starbucks quite a few times this week because I went to Columbus, Ohio last weekend by the time you're watching and I went to the patulacent tensile.

Okay, when I was there, I pulled up my Starbucks rewards to go, you know, through the drive through upon opening it and asked me to update it for the fall gives me this really pretty fall look really cute.

You know, welcome, fall is here, Desiree. I'm like, oh my gosh, so sweet Starbucks love you. So then I go ahead and go to these like, what do you even call my power ups.

It's kind of it's kind of saying, hey, Des, I bet you can't come six times in a row and get 50 bonus stars. I bet you can't do that. I bet you won't even come three times and get 30 bonus stars.

Like Starbucks is egging me on. Bet you won't bitch. I'm a competitive angel. Okay. So when it comes to Starbucks saying, visit six times in a row and get 60 stars. I'm like, no, I'm coming seven times. You know what I mean?

Do not tempt me Starbucks. Okay, I will always outshine what you're asking. So I then got into this like whirlwind in my mind of like Starbucks rewards are crazy because you're getting one point.

Per dollar spent and it takes about 400 points to like get a free drink. Now I think I'm overexaggerated. I might be like 200 something like 200 dollars. You spend to get a free drink.

That just doesn't seem right to me. Then they're telling you, hey, come six times in a row and get boned like insane reward system.
