Happy Friday! We had a few days of absolutely gorgeous weather this week! It was in the upper 70s with low humidity, and that isn’t something we get too often down here. Zoe and I took full advantage, trying to do all the things outside!
We are excited to celebrate Father’s Day this weekend with Chris. We have a few things ordered and most everything has come, fingers crossed the rest comes today!!! We will be spending the weekend at home, but maybe we can order BBQ or have some steaks delivered to cook out. Do you have anything fun planned this weekend?
Favorite Purchase: I ordered a set of these pink pom pom baskets for Zoe’s room. For the price, you really cant beat them! They came with four, so I put three in Zoe’s room and I kept one for my office on the floor next to my chair with a blanket. They are a great size and can be used for so many different things. I like them so much, I might order another set in white.
I also finally decided on a nightstand for Zoe’s room. Now that she has a big girl bed, she needs a nightstand! Hopefully we can go to HomeGoods soon so I can get a little lamp or frame to decorate the top with. Oh how I miss HomeGoods!!!
Favorite Recipe: Each week, I have been trying to add in one or two new recipes to keep things interesting around here. I mean, over three months straight of cooking all the meals….you experience some burn out.
Anyways, I made these Feta Cheeseburgers in Tomato Cream Sauce. They were easy, low carb friendly and delicious and came together in under 30 minutes. I paired them with some roasted brussels. Even Zoe approved and asked for seconds.
I also made an oatmeal cookie protein shake for breakfast this week. This really is like an oatmeal cookie in a cup!
For this you simply blend a scoop of vanilla protein (my favorite), a cup of almond milk, a 1/2 cup of oats (I used old fashioned but you could use rolled too), 1 tsp of maple syrup and 1/2 cup of ice. I think this would be so delicious with a sprinkle of cinnamon or a handful of cocoa nibs if you want to get fancy.
Favorite Workout: I find that Madfit workouts are short and to the point. I am always sore afterwards! I really enjoyed this Thigh, Booty and Calves one that she released earlier this week.

I just adore that pic of Zoe with doggie! YUMMO on that meal girl, great new recipe. LOVE the pom baskets, so cute! I am rolling at the memes, may have to use that Lucy one today, that song is a fav and I Love Iggy Azalea, but where did she go, is she still around? Happy weekend babe!
Those baskets! <3 I wish they came in navy or a darker/boy color!
Low humidity is always a beautiful thing! Those pom pom baskets are so cute. Haha cracking up at the batteries funny. Some toys just need to be silenced. Hope you have a good weekend!
The weather has been so perfect this week – I’ve gotten about 2.5 miles done at lunch every day this week, with minimal sweating! Love that cute picture of Z – I think she is really starting to look like you!! 🙂
That shake sounds amazing! Since I’ve been home, breakfast has been my hardest meal for some reason. I hear you on burnout… I made pork nachos for dinner last night. LOL. Love the pic of Zoe – really wish they made an adult version of that dress!
The Lucielle Ball meme is too cute and accurate on how I feel daily. Ha. That cheeseburger dish looks really good. I am having a hard time with meals again as we have just made so many things. I love those pom pom bins. I think the girls need some for their room for their toys. Have a great weekend!
The night stand and baskets are so so cute! I bet her room is adorable and the perfect little girl haven 🙂 Hope Chris had a happy Father’s Day!
I won’t lie… I blow the lines of residual dirt away. Hahaha.
Omg, that dust pan meme – SO TRUE!!! I also love the one about the mind, humor, and body — my body definitely wants to know if I’m alive most days. LOL
Those pom pom baskets are super cute! And boy do I miss Homegoods as well.
