Currently: January 2015

It’s that time of year when I’m still feeling the post-holiday-season high, and I’m not yet so tired of winter that I’m crying into my ankle boots. I may be singing a different tune in February, but so far, so good, January. Here’s what I’ve been up to lately.

Planning: weekly and monthly goals. I just made a list of my goals for 2015, and now I’m breaking them down into bite-sized pieces. The only thing better than making a big list is checking it off. 2015, it’s on! 

Hoping: to win the picky eating battles. Jona went from eating everything to being Picky McEat-Nothing. Lately I’ve been serving up the old standbys because I know he’ll eat them, but it’s time to get creative and get that boy to eat something besides fruit, yogurt, and peanut butter. 

Baking: Graham Cracker Toffee from Gimme Some Oven. So the last thing I need at my house is more sugar, but I saw this recipe and couldn’t resist. It’s ridiculously easy and oh so good. If you need a quick party snack this is a great one to try! 

Wearing: clothes from my winter capsule. This capsule is a lot of neutrals (again) and coziness and warmth, with a few bold colors thrown in for good measure. What I’m most excited about wearing are a couple of pairs of new shoes I got, some taupe leather ankle boots and a cute pair of desert booties. 

Resolving: to focus on contentment. While I’m definitely a resolution/goal-maker, I also like the idea of having one word or theme to focus on for the year. My word for 2015 is contentment. Too often I get caught in the comparison trap, and I find myself feeling like what I do and what I have isn’t enough. This year, I’m going to try my best to be content with and grateful for what I have.
