On Mundane, Practical Resolutions and Making Them Happen.

January 3, 2023 ~ emetroka ~ 1 Comment

Every new year I sit down and write a lengthy list of goals. Last year I did it stream of consciousness style on a Google doc. Most years past I've used a notebook to jot things down. Neither are a bad way to do it, and it's always nice to read back through to see … Continue reading On Mundane, Practical Resolutions and Making Them Happen.

A Look Inside My Golden Coil Planner.

November 16, 2022November 16, 2022 ~ emetroka ~ Leave a comment

A post I've wanted to write for a while, but am just now getting around to. The overwhelm when it comes to trying to choose a functional, well laid out, everything I need in my life planner is a lot every year. I spent years making and printing my own planning sheets out because I … Continue reading A Look Inside My Golden Coil Planner.

Meal Plan This Week.

November 6, 2022November 10, 2022 ~ emetroka ~ 1 Comment

Sunday - Lasagna with Caesar Salad. I use this recipe from my Betty Crocker cookbook. I'm sure there are much more complicated ones out there, but when I'm looking for a classic recipe I always look to Betty. She's never steered me wrong. She keeps it simple enough that it's manageable and she offers lots … Continue reading Meal Plan This Week.

Meal Plan This Week.

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.

An August To Do List.

August 1, 2022August 1, 2022 ~ emetroka ~ 1 Comment

You guys, I was looking through my blog this morning as my first *School Year Is Starting, But I'm Not Working Yet* order of business, and I really thought I had more on here than I do. Ha! It's a bit bare bones isn't it? I have pages and pages full of post ideas. One … Continue reading An August To Do List.

A February To Do List.

February 9, 2022August 1, 2022 ~ emetroka ~ Leave a comment

Feels a little late to be sharing this, February being a short month and it already being the 9th, but better late than never! But I can imagine this coming in handy next year when I'm looking for monthly to dos. I think I'll share every month (but hopefully a little earlier next time!). Now … Continue reading A February To Do List.

Making Every Day Special.

January 12, 2022January 12, 2022 ~ emetroka ~ 6 Comments

If you follow me on instagram, I've talked many times about a document I made several years ago after having my first son, Charlie. To give you a little background - I was just going back to work after maternity leave and felt so sad about it all. I wanted to stay home longer with … Continue reading Making Every Day Special.
