Last week was busy and felt like it flew by. I have friends whose kids are involved in multiple activities, and I don’t know how they do it. I feel like my schedule is packed and currently the only activity around here is school, until baseball starts again in the spring. Anyway, here are a few highlights from the week.
Weekend baking with my favorites |
{eating}
- 4-ingredient granola – This was so easy to make! I added it to yogurt all week to make breakfast feel like a treat.
- Chicken and veggie stir fry – This is a weeknight dinner go-to. I love how easy it is to change up; this week we had it with chicken, peppers, and broccoli, but it’s also good with pork and other veggies–just use what you have.
{reading}
- A year of reading the world blog – On the latest What Should I Read Next? podcast, Anne’s guest mentioned that she was challenging herself to read a book from every country. Anne mentioned a blog from a woman who did just that, so I had to check it out. I haven’t yet read many of her posts, but her book list is amazing.
- The Success Principles by Jack Canfield – I just finished listening to this on audio. He has a lot of valuable advice, but be warned–this book is long!
{listening}
- Unruffled podcast: No Bad Kids: Questions about Tantrums, Mealtimes, and Cleaning Up – This episode was as if Janet Lansbury was observing my life lately and telling me, “You need this.” Sometimes I feel like my life is one big power struggle with Violet, and her podcasts–this one in particular–remind me that it doesn’t have to be that way.
{shopping}
- Loft sale – I picked up this midi skirt, this heart-print top, and this black subtle bubble-sleeve top on sale at Loft over the weekend. I walked away from a dress and pair of jeans I loved… so I came back on Sunday and bought them. Shopping success!
What were some of your highlights last week?
