I told myself I wasn’t going to make a St. Patrick’s Day craft. Too many holidays, you know?  But then I went to the craft store and as I was checking out I saw these buttons. I’m a sucker for cute packaging, and these were practically screaming, “BUY ME!” anyway, so I tossed them in …

Call me crazy, but an hour of solitude with my planner makes me happy. The pens! The stickers! The washi! The getting-everything-organized-in-my-brain-for-the-next-week…it’s therapeutic. The biggest problem I face is where to keep all my junk. I carry everything back and forth between the office and home (because OMG…what if I need my pink Flair pen …

We all know the story. We’re traveling…for work, for fun, for whatever. And although we start with the best of intentions (“I’m totally going to work out!”), by Day 2 we’re making excuses (there’s no gym here, I don’t have any equipment, I’m too busy…). So we’ve put together a list of hotel workouts for …

The 21 Day Fix program has worked wonders for my attitudes about food. The container system has always made sense to me, and I like that I’m not just tracking the quantity of my food…I’m also tracking the quality of my food. You don’t need the containers to measure out your food, though…here are the 21 …

I don’t know why (really, I don’t…) but I seem to do a better job of crafting with food than cooking with it. My M&M Christmas Trees and Berry Centerpiece are examples of my random food crafting. And today, I’m going to keep this trend moving forward with a Candy Heart Wreath.  Unlike most attempted …

A couple weeks ago, someone in our 21 Day Fix Facebook group (come join us!) asked for a fix-friendly cheesecake recipe. I didn’t have one at the time, but just days later the 21 Day Fix gods smiled down on me and presented me with this stunning 21 Day Fix Cheesecake recipe. OK, actually it wasn’t …

Claire was sick today, which meant we spent the day indoors. She spent most of the day clinging to me, and took a couple of naps for good measure. But she’s three, so…she still wanted to play and needed to be entertained. And frankly, I did too! So we busted out a couple of crafts …

I am a chocolate addict. I love, love, love chocolate. Particularly in the form of actual chocolate or brownies. And lately, there have been a lot of people in our 21 Day Fix Support Group (come join us!) asking for dessert recipes. So I thought I’d dial that in a little more and find us some …

Guest blogger Liz is sharing how she uses the Instant Pot to simplify dinnertime – be sure to check out her favorite recipes at the bottom of the post! The Daily 5pm Scramble – What’s for Dinner? I started my blog, FI with Kids, to record our journey to financial independence, which for our family, will give us …

Is one of your goals to meal plan? I’m telling you guys…meal planning is SO HELPFUL. When we meal plan, evenings are just easier. And that’s saying a lot…because evenings are basically crazy. Really, though, it’s true…meal planning makes for a less stressful dinner. We save money. We eat healthier. We eat together as a …
