Intentions for the Week- Week 39  in 2021

We spent the weekend up in Windsor for a baseball tournament. Unfortunately, it didn’t leave me time to do some meal prep! We were wiped out! Cooper has outdoor education this week (yay Cooper!) so we are spending our Sunday night getting him all packed and ready for that. Time to sit down and write down my Intentions for the Week- Here’s what’s up!

Here are some of my intentions for the season!

Here’s my Autumn Bucket List from last year!  

I really do enjoy putting together these vignettes. It helps me be more intentional about time. It has become a nice ritual to collect items that catch my eye during the season and place them in the frame. 

If you would like to join in on making an Autumn Bucket List, you can download one from my shop here! 

Post a picture and tag @shutterbean and @thehandwritingclub

I’d love to see what you’re up to this Autumn.

Sourdough Pizza Dough

If you got into the sourdough revolution like me, have you made Sourdough Pizza Dough? If you haven’t, you should!

This recipe makes three pizzas. Great for our family of three 🙂  We all can do whatever we want with our pizzas.

All you need is to get your sourdough starter fed, some flour, and water and you’re good to go. It’s less time-consuming than making sourdough bread and you can make a legit dinner with it!

My Everyday Life Week 37

Here’s what this past week looked like- My Everyday Life Week 37

I have to get another mammogram soon to get another look. I’m trying to stay positive. I posted about it on my Instagram stories and heard from so many people who have been in the same boat. There were a few older women who left comments and this one made me feel comforted. It’s something my Mom would have said.

It meant that I spent less time online this week.  I gave myself some space to think.
