So glad to see your beautiful face. Don.t stay away for so long... miss you
What a great video. Great job Shannon. luv from Australia.
Love the new frig we have a white Frigidaire with the freezer on top then frig on bottom no ice maker or drink thing just a plan Jane frig
My meal planning got easier when I set each day of the week for a certain type of meal... for example, Monday was potato based meals, Tuesday was Italian, etc. I had a salad day, a soup day, a Mexican day, I even had a leftover day which was usually Saturday. Just sharing as an option... PS I still don't like meal planning, but this worked when I was cooking for 8.
So glad you're back!
I’m so happy to see you! Hope you are doing well ❤
I can eat quesadillas all day too ❤
Yay, you are back ❤
Ooo egg rolls. Fun! I love egg rolls.
I like seeing you go through the fridge and pantry for ideas! ❤😊
Also your house looks delicious 😂 you have such yummy stuff. I wanna come for dinner.😊
You know you are grown when appliances excite you - good to see you again
Why are you SO FUN to "hangout" with !?
I think because Shannon you are just like all of us and you don't seem like you're all stuck up or trying to be perfect and I really love how relatable I feel like you are.
Thank you for being you,you lift me up so much
We are so very much a like xxx
Regards Tracey
I feel your pain. Thinking of what to eat is worse than actually cooking. Thankfully I am great a leftovers. I usually freeze at least one portion of whatever I have cooked a big pot of and my future self-thanks me when I find that frozen treasure in the freezer. :-)
I am happy to see you.😊🧡💛
So happy to see you 🤗 Beautiful fridge and freezer 💛 we also keep protein in one freezer and vegetables, fruits, and convenience foods in the other freezer. It makes it much easier to see what we have.
I enjoy your videos ❤️❤️
It’s so good to see you!
Can I get an invitation to lunch like.. every second day maybe? 😃
Sounds yummy what you came up with!
I'm so glad you finally got a nice new fridge. Great meal planning too!
😮 I saw this and forgot to watch it! But I'm here now 😂 Can I come over for lunch and dinner? 😂😂😂 I've been on a weird health journey since my health issues got worse this past summer. Sleep who? Who's she??!! And my relationship with food in general now is a bit precarious. I enjoyed getting lost watching this and hope to live vicariously through y'all. It's baked chicken and veg for me most days 😭 Currently having a cheat meal of pizza, so it's not all bad.
Good to see you back.
If Wednesdays are busy due to church so you end up eating out maybe instead plan a hot dish cooked in foil and use paper plates and cups. Eat, toss and head out the door. No guilt on cost or paper product waste as eating out would cost more and also creates trash.
I love left overs. It's nice for me to just have something to heat up for lunch and not have to cook again. I like making extra pasta and rice just to have to throw together other meals. But they do still get burried and lost and forgotten as stuff shifts.
You have no idea how happy I was to see your video. It was nice to see you again. Yes, meal planning is a thankless job but does make the process somewhat easier. I feel like I'm always making the same things over and over again and I am always seeking interesting recipes. However, I am looking for simple recipes that don't require 25 ingredients, if you know what I mean. I love your new refrigerator. I can't justify buying a new one as ours is just fine, even if I do hit my head on the freezer door handle at least once a week. You'd think I'd learn but nope. Anyhow, look forward to seeing more videos. You've been missed so much.
Glad to see your back missed you please try not to be gone so long I miss watching you. Hope you all are doing well and that hubby is doing better
You are doing so well, out and about, so happy to see this!!!!
Your family has wonderful lunches! I kept it simple with sandwiches or soup and salad. My kids would’ve loved to live at your house!
❤❤❤😊
So happy to see you back! ❤❤❤❤
Those hair curlers were called spoolies in the sixties!!!
Yes, I knew the concept rang a bell when Shannon showed them. The shape seems a bit different, but quite similar. Very nostalgic.
❤️♥️❤️🥰
I need to be better about meal planning, but I'm in a tough season of life to sit down and plan, lol. I have an 11 year old daughter that's in 6th grade and is about to start back in theater for her spring play, a 4 year old son I'm trying to get ready for pre-k, and my youngest daughter that just turned one. Plus my oldest son is in college. I feel like I'm just constantly going. 🥴💕
Edited for typos.
Happy to have you back. Hope you are doing well!
💜💜💜
I think you’ve done an excellent job of keeping your freezers and pantry organized! Kudos!
😊❤
My favorite calendar is the Big grid TF publishing walI calanders. It's big and has lots of space. I used a magnet thing from an old calander and slide it on to hang from fridge side. I love that it is more business than fun. The one I got this year has pretty flowers on it by the month though. Other years I had different patterns. I like it plain as possible. I also will get a big desk calander for back to school section. And I use Velcro command strips to put on the wall for a command center type area. I like to use post it's for activities one color for kid. When I have my life together a bit more. Thai year I didn't hang it yet. 😂 But did get a new fridge calendar and am using that. I like the idea of having a specific meal planning calendar.
May I suggest you consider having a theme for several days of the week. We always have Mexican food on Thursdays and pizza on Fridays. Wednesday is a meat plus starch plus veg, Tuesday is usually a one pot meal. Some parameters helps ease the decision fatigue.
Also, don't feel bad about dropping meal planning for lunches. My kids eat leftovers or a simple charcuterie type lunch daily (pepperoni, cheese, cut raw veg, and nuts).
I’ve totally transformed green bean casserole into other casseroles. I also try to use the evening before trash day to chest out my fridge. It works for awhile, then I slack and it’s a mess again. 😆
Wonderful to have stuff on hand to use up! You have a nice selection! Hope you didn’t get snow down there! So good to see you! ❤❤❤❤❤ em
So happy to see you again! Nice refrigerator. Mine is falling apart. We need another one and a new sofa. All in time.
Nice fridge!! Not gonna lie, when you said “let me see if I have a can of enchilada sauce” and went right past the one in front, I wanted to come over and arrange your cans so bad! 😂 I finally broke down and got a can organizer and love it, though the style I have might not work for your family. The risers might work? Anyway, good to see you and you have some yummy meals coming up!
So good to see your beautiful face. Love your new refrigerator. I need to clean mine out. Probably growing a science project in there. 😂😂 I really do need to meal plan. Between me and my husband.. it dont matter, whatever you want, are we cooking or eating out. 😂 gets kinda old. I am happy my husband will eat what I fix. I enjoyed hanging out with you today. Take care. I hope to see you soon.
Nice fridge!
Fridge looks great. Love your honesty..it's for real 😂❤
I agree, meal planning is the way to go. The only meal my family of four will all eat is spaghetti. It’s so frustrating having such picky eaters, including my husband. 😊
I'm so happy to have a video from you!! Your new fridge looks great! Now I am hungry ... 😊
I watched a video the other day where the person said to change one word ... instead of saying, "I HAVE to," say, " I GET to." I've been trying to put that change in my life (mostly when doing dishes), and it has helped! 😊
Very pretty calendar, good to see you ❤
Love the new fridge digs!!
For work I have to plan 3 meals a day its taxing for sure. But once I’m done it’s so freeing.
Happy Eating!!!
I meal plan every week... we didn't fo it over Christmas and I was totally lost. Couldn't wait to start again 😂
So glad to see you. I absolutely love meal planning. I have been trying to make a side hustle out of it 😂
Definitely ginormous! Lol.
I love your videos and how really real you are ! Plenty of people say they keep it real I truly think you do so glad to see you are back ❤❤❤
Lovely to see you again ❤
Missed you, congrats on Fridge🎉
Meal planning saves money! I plan out an entire month at a time. It includes leftover night the dinner before the trash run. Also one quick and easy meal. It could be something in the crockpot that simmers most of the day or corndogs and tater tots. I eat out only one day a week. Used to be I ate out 3-4 lunches and 5-6 dinners. Make sure you include healthy snacks and desserts.
What brand and model is your new fridge? I love it!
I went to culinary school and meal planning is too much for me. We also have multiple food sensitivities here so dinner is multiple dinners usually. We ah e gluten free dairy free egg free and also different preferences. Even on nights i make meals every one can eat somone else decided to make their own food or complain. It sucks. 😢 But also... We all gotta survive. I have been more what do i have in the hosue. Lets make that kind of aproach nit planning ahead... But taht also isnt working so i need to start planning. Even if it isn't day by day but at least having a list of set meals for the week. And my family eats too so wr are at like 4 meals a day for the kids usualy. Plus snacks when they are all home.
💜
😊😊😊
You've got plenty of frozen foods on hand. Yay❤😂🎉
I just made the next week's meal plan this morning. So good to see you! Love the fridge. 2024 brought me a new fridge. It's crazy how exciting a new fridge can be!😂
I meal plan ish. I have different meals I can make with ingredients on hand. So, I make suggestions and we can choose what we want that day. Breakfast and lunch are basics that they decide on the day. It was great seeing you and watching a professional at work. I've really missed you. I've watched your bedroom clean up so many times. I don't know why it's so relaxing to me. My husband wants a french door refrigerator. I caved in and got a stainless steel oven. I hate it. I know he wants a stainless refrigerator. So, I think I'll have to give in when the time comes. Take care, Linda 🦋
I am very happy to see you again. ❤
Welcome back!
Ugh the dreaded meal planning 😅 I have a tough time sticking with it but love it when i do😊
Ooo new fridge! 😁❤
Very nice new fridge! Having space in the fridge helps so much doesn’t it? Great job doing the meal plan! Have a wonderful weekend! 😊❤
You’re back!! Praise the Lord!
😊
Your skin is absolutely beautiful and flawless. Please do a video on your skin care regime. So glad for your new video! ❤
The shaving cream helps with pre venting prints too
Your nails are really pretty 🙂
So Glad to see you. Hugs ~Samantha
I have the same kind of ice maker in my freezer, it came with a bin that perfectly catches the ice...you shouldn't have had to find your own basket/bucket...check with the manufacturer.
Since you homeschool, why don’t you make lunch leftovers? That’s what we do everyday and if we don’t have leftovers, I always have cup of noodle soup, frozen chicken tenders, or PBJ….
You know what I did? Had breakfast late. Or have cereal twice. She knows what she's doing. Her kids probably get tired of the same ol'. I know I do. I haven't willfully enjoyed ramen until recently, and it's been ten years of taking a break from it. Same for anything frozen chicken whatevers. There IS having too much of a good thing. Just some food for thought for you. I personally hated PBJs and soups from cans. That's bland baby food to me.
On pintrist there is a taco lasagna that is really good. I add tomatoes that it doesn't call for. Serve with salsa and sour cream. Really good.
❤️❤️❤️
Shannon....another utuber said dollar store mens cheap shaving cream works good on the stainless steal..try on a small spot first to make sure...
Very impressive, especially planning out the lunches. Most days I just eat a sandwich for lunch 😂
I needed this to clear & organized freezers!! Thank u! Miss ur pretty face Shannon! How r u feeling?❤
💖💖💖
What brand is your fridge? It looks great😀 I am looking to get a new one - ours came with the house when we bought it 12 yrs ago, and it keeps having broken part…
Yes, I looked at your Amazon storefront to see what brand of fridge you brought. You didn't list. 👀👀👀
Thanks for sharing !!
Hi Shannon
Love your channel.
Can you let me know what kind of refrigerator you have. I am going to be purchasing one and yours looks like the one I want.
Thank you
🎉
Ooo egg rolls. Fun! I love egg rolls.
