Currently August 2023
August was a busy month. Most importantly, my baby STARTED HIGH SCHOOL!!!!
For my August pages, I used my Leo collage kit. Here’s a timelapse video of me working through my pages!
I always seem to use orange in August.
RAWR
Hooray for Leos.
Let’s break it down!
August was a busy/creative month!!! Here’s what kept me busy:
A meal planning class with my friend Helen Jane! We taught it over zoom and it was loads of fun!
From there, I put together my Meal Prep Planning system together as a printable!
Meal Prep/Planning Printable Pack
You can see more of that in the video below:
I also created a Leo Collage Kit!
Inspired By:
Lots of fun things happened this month. Things that inspired me:
Helen Jane was in town and we had a sleepover!!!
Silent Disco at Convert!
Swam in the bay for the first time in a LONG time.
I got an apple watch for my birthday and I am quite excited about that!
I moved my typewriter and have a whole new view now when I’m doing my morning pages.
I love being able to make an arrangement of flowers from my garden 🙂
Had a fun get-together at Neiley’s with MC.
Some quality time with Lisa!
I also went on a mad cleaning spree in the kitchen and my prop closet and pantry are cleaned out now.
YAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAY.
Watching:
I’ve been watching a lot of YouTube lately for research. As you can see with my Mom, I’ve been more in output mode than input! I need a legit vacation!
Reading:
I read through Thriving as an Empath and Simple Abundance when I need a pick-me-up/something to motivate me throughout the day.
Thinking About:
- The next year
- my future
- taking a vacation
- taking a break from being online
Listening To:
Glad to have this in the mix.

On repeat:
Dream Life:
Got pretty crazy around the Blue Moon. Whoa!! I am not getting enough sleep as per usual. Womp womp.
Eating/Drinking:
I updated my Giardiniera recipe photos!
It’s been enhancing all of our meals this month! Breakfast included.
I made a few batches of Almond Flour Chocolate Chip Cookies this month. I have a stash in my freezer for safe keeping. They’re amazing!
I did a few meal preps this month. WAHOO. Back into the swing of things.
I enjoy making breakfast for Casey.
Mexican Food with Helen Jane!
I made some tacos that my family raved about.
First sope with Reese!
Neiley made an amazing dinner.
I love making Sol Food Chicken for MC.
