Happy Friday! Can you believe it’s already November?! Where did October go? I feel like I was just scrolling Facebook and seeing everyone’s first day of school pictures, and now it’s already time to order Christmas cards! This week flew by, but I was able to sit down and reflect on some of my favorite things from the week. I’ve been excited to share these with you!
Favorite Recipe: Everything in this Trader Joe’s Shopping List and Meal Ideas Post
I am obsessing over and SUPER thankful for this Trader Joe’s Shopping List and Meal Ideas from one of my favorite bloggers, Lynsy of Lynsy & Co. She’s a Connecticut Lifestyle Blogger and one of my muses as I’ve started my journey with blogging. My husband and I have tried three days of her Trader Joe’s Meal Ideas and we are loving the variety! Each meal is super easy to pull together…and so delicious! The shopping list and meal plan are printable to make things easier — I highly recommend checking it out! I bought everything on her shopping list and spent about $110. We’ve been able to stretch most dinners into lunch the next day, which helps a ton! Two of my favorites were the meatballs with simmer sauce + mango chutney and the orange chicken + broccoli… so good! Both were ready in less than 30 minutes!
Favorite DIY: Thanksgiving Tree
This Thanksgiving Tree DIY is so near and dear to my heart that I did a whole post about it. It’s easy and kid friendly! Most of the items you already own (scissors, construction paper, a tree branch from your yard). 🙂 Plus it fosters such great family time! Read more here.
Favorite Purchase: Jubilee Farm Community Supported Agriculture (CSA)
We recently joined our local CSA via Jubilee Farm (Fall City, Washington) and received our first box full of local goodies this past Wednesday! We will receive a box of local and organic fruits and veggies weekly for the next 6 weeks. Our first box contained whole wheat flour, lady alice apples, green tomatoes, spinach, mustard greens, leeks, potatoes, beets, winter squash, celery, and carrots! I’m so excited to start getting more creative in the kitchen because of these weekly boxes. 🙂 Below is a picture of just some of the goodies!
Favorite Accessory: Blue Floral Scarf from the Loft!
I’m loving this scarf because it’s lightweight and it’s coloring is perfect for all seasons! I’ve been wearing it a lot with sweaters this fall, but because it’s light weight, I got a lot of wear out of it this summer too!
Cheers to a lovely weekend! We are headed out to Eastern Washington to visit my sister and her husband! Macey does really well in the car but still wish us luck as we tackle the 3-4 hour drive. 🙂
Happy Friday!
