🪛loved this one! So excited for your new house. As for painting Lyla’s room, choose a neutral. If you really want color on the wall add a chair rail and paint one section or paint an accent wall. You’ll likely update her room a few more times - make it easy on yourself
I am a little older than you and my children are all almost grown.. I just wanted to let you know that I have an open concept kitchen and I don't really like it. When you are cooking you are not relaxing.. you are still in the middle of all of it. When you want to relax after dinner... cleaning the kitchen and turning off the light and leaving the kitchen is such a nice way to say you are done there. Anywho... just something else to think about... so excited for your new house!! 🛠
We do set days of the week for meal planning and it’s really been working for my family (I’ve gone through all different meal planning styles). Here is our schedule, if you’re looking for ideas Pasta on mondays Taco Tuesday! L/o or wildcard Wednesdays Curry Thursday (my whole family loves curries, this wouldn’t work for everyone) Pizza Friday
🔨 I had a full response written out and then my iPad decided to act out. Reaction was completely deleted. It were some suggestions on your new house but I decided not to write it out again. I’m sure you and Sam have gone through all the options and decided what was best for you and your situation.
Have you ever been to the factory??? I'll occasionally run up there and you can get some really good deals plus its really neat to see. I LOVEEEEEE the mini gummy bears from them. You can get oops bags there too like 5 pounds of gummies for around like $8??
🪛 For your chicken pot pie soup recipe, you can try taking out some of the broth and potatoes, blending them and throwing them back in to create some of that creaminess. Im no cooking expert, but that’s worked for me. :)
A suggestion for something healthier than bouillon cubes. There's a product in a jar called "Better than Bouillon" that really is delicious. And it comes in a variety of flavors. How exciting to be getting things ready at your new house! Here's to easy home renovations by your contractors!
🛠️ I think you can never have too many potatoes! For several years, I’ve been making condensed cream of chicken and cream of mushroom soups from scratch for recipes. The condensed cream of chicken in particular is quick and easy to make. So that’s always an option if you don’t have enough of the canned soup.
🔨Congrats!! When we added our overhead lighting we added flexing fans. We loved them!

Thanks!

The other recipe I saw did that, I was trying to keep it simple and have one less dish!! Thanks for the suggestion though!!

Since Lyla loves books, what about little bookworm?
No such thing as too many potatoes
