Monday - Crockpot Carnitas Rice Bowls. We've gotten a carnitas roast from Aldi a few times before and it is SO good and so easy. You just toss it all in the crockpot and cook like a normal roast. I'll make rice and a side of black beans when I get home from school and … Continue reading Meal Plan This Week.

I have so many things on my list for month. I'm so excited about it … Continue reading A September To Do List.

This week’s meal plan for the curious! Monday - BLTs with tater tots and salad - I always try to keep Monday nights easy, so I’ll make the bacon in the oven (at 400 on a foil lined pan for about 20 minutes), slice up some heirloom tomatoes, add iceberg lettuce because it has the … Continue reading Meal Plan This Week.

A Summer Bed Makeover with Garnet Hill.

June 13, 2022June 13, 2022 ~ emetroka ~ Leave a comment

I’m about to turn in for the night, and since making the bed up with our new bedding gifted from Garnet Hill, I can’t help but pinch myself that this bed even exists in my house. Listen though, a cozy bed does not have to be expensive. Most of our bedding has been from target, … Continue reading A Summer Bed Makeover with Garnet Hill.
