and some life lately + some links…
– we are having lots of guests over for dinner this week. 5/7 days! two down already. We had grouper (that JB caught-the best) tacos last night with all the fixings. I think I could have that every night and not get bored. JB made this amazing mango butter that I could eat all day everyday. It’s butter sauteed with garlic and onions and then you add in the mangos. Butter is my love language.
-I discovered these packable pails and bought one up for Mexico. normal ones take up so much room! when you get to the resort, sand toys are generally a fortune … I’ve found out the hard way :/
-Bridget is packing up and moving to Italy for a few months (#lifegoals) and I loved her post on versatile pieces for a long trip. This post would surely help be perfect if you are traveling or studying abroad. I’m not sure I’ve ever mentioned this but we moved to Milan, Italy when I was 7 for a year. Those are still some of my favorite family memories, that time taught us all so much, and gave us all insatiable wanderlust.
-I finally read The Life Changing Magic of Tidying Up during some downtime at Disney last week. Some of it is a bit wacky but overall it’s a great read for people who are prone to clutter (me!). I cleaned out my closet on Friday using her tips. Basically if it doesn’t bring you joy or fit properly, thank it and let it go to a new home. Two huge bags later to salvation army, I feel so much lighter. I also can see everything in my closet. It’s helped me realize I don’t need new clothes … well maybe some new shorts because I am SO hot. Also giving away all the stuff I rarely wear, have stains, or don’t fit has made getting dressed every day easier.
-I try to eat after every time I nurse so I can keep my energy up. These whenever bars are my favorite. As are these toasted coconut chips. I eat them plain or throw in my yogurt.
-I am obsessed with our CB2 marble shelves – they are only $60, too! I keep waiting for them to go on sale so I can scoop more up.
– I’m loving the new show – the astronaut wives club. I could watch anything in that era, if only for the fashion. I wish we all still dressed like that.
…. annnnd wesley is up from napping (Tuck is at grammas)! Happy Tuesday!
