My Top 5 Go-To Weeknight Recipes

one Comments

Do you cook the same things on rotation week after week, or do you find new recipes to try each week? I go through phases of each of the above, but lately with limited time, I keep falling back on my tried and true, easy weeknight recipes. These are the recipes that I keep coming back to, time and time again, and almost have the ingredients memorized. To streamline my meal prep, I eat the same breakfast and lunch every weekday. So, when making my grocery list, I just have to come up with 5-6 dinner meals (Fridays are ALWAYS…

no Comments

Last week I shared my holiday gift guide for kids, and as promised, I'm back this week to share some gift ideas for the grown-ups on your list. The items on my list are things I've bought, or been gifted, and use often. If you are looking to support some small businesses this holiday season, I've denoted those with (SB). And you can always buy books from local bookstores in your area to support local too.

Hi ya'll! I'm back after a few weeks off to vacation with the family and soak in every last minute of summer break before my 5 year-old starts kindergarten this week (how is that possible already?!). While making the most of my last few weeks of summer break, I managed to squeeze in some time to visit Ikea. It's been a while since I took a trip to Ikea and last week I had the perfect excuse to go peruse the great Scandinavian showroom. I'm lucky enough to have an Ikea just a mere 25 minutes from me, so when…

My Favorites: In the Laundry Room

no Comments

How many loads of laundry do you do a week? With 3 kids and a husband, I'm sure you can imagine the amount of time I spend in my laundry room, so today I'm sharing my tried-and-trues that make laundry day(s), dare I say, enjoyable (okay, maybe just tolerable). Okay, yes, everyone has hangers (I hope). But, have you tried having all the same hangers? There's nothing that makes your closet or laundry hanging space look more organized than unifying your hangers. I use this style, in white, for the majority of my clothes, but pick a style and color…
