Normally, I choose not to “clutter up” my blog with special deals and discounts, but since this bag is honestly one of my favorite, favorite things {and it’s an amazing deal} I couldn’t pass up the opportunity to share it with you.

I recently posted a potential floor plan for our new kitchen — one that Dave and I had dreamed up after quite a bit of time — and you all smashed it to smithereens!!
At first, I was completely overwhelmed with all the suggestions, but after I had a couple days to process everything (and meet with the cabinet designer)… I came up with another plan!
The other night, I was in a pinch because our plans changed at the last minute and I didn’t have dinner ready. My first reaction was just to make sandwiches or a frozen pizza, but then I remembered I had chicken and several boxes of frozen veggies.
Within minuets I whipped up this super simple and extremely delicious semi-homemade Chicken Teriyaki. It was a hit!
Yes, I’m aware that it’s only the beginning of June – but what better time to organize your gift wrap 🙂
Our gift wrap was getting out of control and I was having a difficult time finding the supplies I needed to wrap gifts. So the other day, I took about 30 minutes and got everything organized again… just in time for wedding season!
As I’ve mentioned before, I use Gmail for all {10} of my email address. I love Gmail!
But since I use different signatures for each of my email address — and I’m not willing to manually type out a different signature for each email I send — I rely on Gmail’s super cool feature that allows me to set up different signature for each of email address…
A few weeks ago, I was in the mood for chocolate… and I had a package of Double Chocolate Chunk cookie mix in our pantry. However, I started to wonder if I could do something else with it, besides just make “boring” cookies again.
Today’s recipe is SOOOO yummy… but if you’re on a diet, you might just want to stop reading now!
So I know I’ve mentioned {several times already} that I write everything down… and I honestly do. I have my planner and a pad of paper with me where ever I go… and am constantly adding things to my lists {even in the middle of the night}.
Today, I’m sharing a few tips for both HOW and WHY I write everything down… and I’ve love to know if you have any tips or suggestions to add.
Now that summer is ALMOST here — which means Dave will be home everyday, we’ll be making a huge mess during our kitchen remodel, and I won’t have my beloved college girl coming to clean every friday — I’ve decided that my summer cleaning schedule is going to be REALLY relaxed.
I’ll only be cleaning about 1/3 of our house… can you believe it!
I hate clutter {especially cord clutter} and I’m always on the look out for space-saving, cord-organizing products that serve more than one purpose.
I recently came across Energizer’s new Universal USB chargers and knew I had to offer them as a giveaway because they are everything I just mentioned above… and more!
As many of you know, Dave and I are gearing up for a really messy kitchen renovation this summer.
I’ve been doing quite a bit of “behind the scenes” work these past few weeks… the bulk of which was designing the floor plan. It’s still not 100% set in stone, but as you’ll see by the images below, we’re adding a TON of cabinet space and creating a much more open and user-friendly place to cook, eat, and just hangout.
I wrote a bunch of guest posts this month and included a few of my favorites right here. If you’re looking to simplify your summer schedule or add hours to your day, I’ve got several tips to share.
I’m also talking about the pros and cons of working as a virtual assistant, as well as how listening to music can actually help you be MORE productive!
Creamy chicken packets were one of my favorite weeknight meals growing up — mainly because I loved anything with chicken, but also because I absolutely LOVE crescent roll dough.
I got this recipe from my mom, but she got it from a school cookbook… so you know it has to be quick, easy, and something real families will eat!
For the past year, I’ve been on a mission to take more pictures — and as you can probably tell from all the pictures of Nora, I’ve been doing a pretty good job!
However, I’m still failing miserably at my goal to actually print off and display my photos. So after thinking about it for awhile, I’ve decided that I’m no longer going to print pictures… come read my reasons why!
This time of year, 2 lt. bottles go on sale for as low as $0.79 and I often have $0.75 off coupons… which means I can get multiple 2 lt. bottles for ALMOST free. And even though it’s definitely NOT a health food, I try to have a variety of flavors on hand for last-minute BBQ’s or family gatherings.
However, I just hate when we end up with several half-empty bottles… If you share my frustration, here are a bunch of creative ways you can reuse your flat soda/pop.
It seems like almost every week we get asked to give some type of donation to a charitable cause, non-profit organization, school fundraiser, church event, etc. etc. Of course, all of these requests are for wonderful organizations that really DO need donations.
I feel guilty for saying no, but Dave and I just can’t say yes to every request. If you’ve ever felt guilty for saying no to a request for money, or if you’ve ever given out of guilt, I might have a “solution” for you…
The other day, I was talking with some of my friends who have really picky eaters. Because of this, they choose to make multiple meals in order to please everyone.
So since I like to keep things simple (and I definitely don’t want to cook 2 meals if I don’t have to) here are three super popular kids meals that should also please the adults in your home!
Over the years, I’ve been known to stock-up on sample-size products. I just love the small sizes… and the fact that I get all of them completely free!
Last week I showed you how I created free first aid kits for our vehicles using sample-size products; however, a first aid kit isn’t the only use for sample-size products.
Two years ago I got the “crazy” idea to start a blog about simple organized living… and after about 4 months of hashing out design details, SimpleOrganizedLiving.com was born in September of 2010.
I can hardly believe that over 2 million people have visited SimpleOrganizedLiving.com — and since you’re one of those people, I’d love to know how you’ve benefited from my blog!
