Welcome to my weekly recap post where I share a little peek into our week, share some links to things I don’t want you to miss, and highlight some things you may not have seen on the blog this week.
So much has happened over the last few weeks, so this past week, Jesse and I sat down and recorded a podcast episode filled with lots of family updates and news. I share a crazy travel story, talk about my surprising sourdough journey, we give you some can’t-miss cold shower updates (please laugh!), talk about a book I finished recently, and tell you about a book light we love!
We hope that this podcast episode feels like you are sitting in our living room with us chatting about life and things we’re thinking about, trying, reading, and learning. We also touch on how our commitment to circadian rhythm and sunlight before screens is going and talk about how we are challenging ourselves outside our comfort zones for personal growth.
Psst! We also offer you a coupon code on my new 10 Weeks of Money-Saving Menus — exclusive to our podcast listeners! Listen to the episode here.

- What We Ate Last Week + What We Bought at the Grocery Store — instead of posting my menu plan and grocery purchases, since I often reverse meal plan, I thought I’d share with you what we ate this past week and then what we bought for this coming week. I don’t do a rigid meal plan most weeks; I usually just make sure we have enough on hand for 8-10 different dinners and then I plan that day what we’re having based upon the time I have and what sounds good. See what we ate and what we bought.
- 35 Things You Don’t Need to Buy — Looking to lower your grocery bill or your overall budget? Here’s a post with 35 Things You Don’t Need to Buy. You might not agree with everything on the list (you probably won’t!) But I’m guessing it might make you think!
