What I'm Reading This Week #36
Well hello you! So happy you stopped by and hope you're ready for September. It was a nice birthday week in comparison to last year when we rolled into Kentucky to be greeted with 103 degrees. So 81? Yeah, I'll take it! I saved the gift boxes from my friends to open on my actual birthday including a surprise box I wasn't expecting and it sat in the Amazon pile a little longer than it should have so that was nice. We got my free bundtlet from Nothing Bundt since I pre-worked it off with 9000 'steps' on the bike for 800 calories. We both rolled our eyes at the insane amount of visual shrinkage going on there as the cake doesn't even touch the sides of the package anymore like it used to. If you think we're paying $6 for that crap, you're nuts! (We don't get them unless there's a bogo going on anyway- way too expensive now compared to the $3.99 they were when they rolled into town 8 years ago. Anyhoo... It was your typical midweek...
I'm glad you're doing this to make it easier on yourself after doing workouts and PT. I can help with it too, especially if it's a heat and eat kind of thing. I am also looking forward to trying out some of the new recipes you have in store to incorporate more vegan into our meals.
ReplyDeleteI try to do meal prep, but don't follow through very often. It's something I'm working on because when I do cut veggies and/or batch cook I always appreciate my efforts later. I just can't seem to make myself give up a chunk of my weekend to do it on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteI typically don't prep for the whole week but I will prep the day before. If it's something that I can fully assemble the night before I'll do that too. But I try to do the chopping, sorting, marinating, etc the day before if possible. I love the idea of having most of the dishes done ahead of time that way.
