Today I’m sharing TWO of my favorite raw veggie salads. They are both SO flavorful, and an easy way to enjoy raw veggies without a lot of work or extra ingredients.
If you’re a salad-lover, I have a feeling you’ll like these salads too — even if it is a little strange to have a “salad” with no lettuce!
On an average day, I accomplish more by 8am then I do for the rest of the day. Part of the reason for this is because I wake up early, but another huge factor in my morning productivity is that I plan ahead to set my mornings up for success.
Even if you’re not a morning person, the concepts in this post can be applied to your life to help you make the best use out of YOUR most productive hours of the day!
HAPPY NEW YEAR, FRIENDS!!!!
I had a fabulous “week away” from my computer, the blog, social media, and even from most of my emails… but I’m excited to get into a better routine again.
Of course, you know that another new year (and month) means another new list of my favorite things!! Feel free to share some of YOUR favorite things in the comments!
Obviously, I’m a huge advocate for simple-living. HOWEVER, I also know there must often be times of busyness, stress, frustration, and “too much” in order to reach a goal, meet a deadline, or get where you want to go in life.
If you’re in a season of extra busyness, but you feel like it’s the right thing for you at this point in your life — I hope today’s post will offer some encouragement and motivation to push forward!
Over the past few years, I’ve talked a lot about selling our unneeded items. However, what I might not have said in so many words is that I most definitely do not SELL everything we purge. In fact, the majority of it is donated on a regular basis as I just want to get it out of our home ASAP!
Today, I’m sharing my opinions on when to sell and when to donate…
When it comes to gross kid germs, I’m honestly not a germaphobe as I know it’s beneficial for their immune systems. That said, I still don’t love it when my kids are stuffed up or “under the weather”…
Today, I’m sharing my super simple, super frugal tip to blast away their colds. It seems to work for us every single time!
Have you ever wondered something like, Can I freeze this food?, Can I swap these ingredients?, Would this style flatter my figure?, Will this product work for my home?, etc.?
If you sometimes feel paralyzed by indecisiveness or even just unsure of what to do in various situations, give my worst-case-scenario approach a try. I have a feeling it will liberate you and help you move forward in so many areas of life!
This time of year, I always get so many questions about planners. And due to the craze in Bullet Journaling, lots of these questions have been about any stickers, color-coded systems, or embellishments I add to my planner.
Surprisingly (or maybe not) I don’t add anything to my planner… in fact, my planner is REALLY messy! Today, I’m sharing why my “messy planner” works for me!
Today I’m wishing the happiest of birthdays to my most favorite person!
And in honor of Dave’s birthday (which perfectly coincides with the holiday baking season) I’m sharing a bunch of his most favorite Chocolate + Peanut Butter Desserts. If you’re on a diet, you probably don’t want to read today’s post!
As many of you know, Dave and I are not the shopping type. We prefer to stay home and would probably rather have some type of operation or even get a tooth pulled versus going shopping the day after Thanksgiving!
That said… there is one deal we ALWAYS capitalize on during the holiday season. I’m sharing the details today!
One of my favorite things about the holiday season is the extra time I have to do a little more reading… it’s too cold to do yard work and we rarely do any house projects over the holidays, so I have enjoyed the extra “down time” and have read several books these past few weeks.
I’m sharing a few more of my favorite things in today’s post!
It took time for me to get onboard with veggies for breakfast — and even more time for my family to stop thinking I was completely crazy — but now breakfast is honestly my favorite meal of the day. I love coming up with new and different ways to work more veggies into our morning meal.
If you’d like to try incorporating a few more vegetables into your breakfast, here are 5 ideas to get you started!
Due to a change in plans, our family essentially “skipped” Thanksgiving in the sense that we didn’t do any holiday parties, we didn’t have traditional Thanksgiving foods, we didn’t scan the ads for amazing deals, and we didn’t see any extended family members or friends.
Before you click away, thinking we are a family of Scrooges, please just read through to the end… the whole weekend was a revolutionary experience for Dave and me, and I just had to share!
