Day in my life 💞 diy and meal prep ideas

I wanted to share what productive things I've been up to lately!

🐕 Reduce & Reuse 🐕

We got an old twin size mattress topper which was not being used anymore. I always prefer to repurpose over throwing things away!

🦴 I cut the mattress topper in half, and stacked both halves together for a thick and comfy bed.

🦴 I also got a blanket from goodwill also cut in half, and covered both sides

🦴 I used a knot technique to attach and finish the edges. This is great because you don't need a sewing machine!

🍍 Meal Prep Diaries 🍍

We meal prep every week, but I really have a hard time posting about it because cooking is just so messy! Hard to make that look aesthetic. But this pineapple chicken and rice was SO GOOD and I managed to get 10 servings!

I followed a recipe from Pinterest, and absolutely would make again.

❓🗨️ What is a Todo list item you finished that makes you feel proud of yourself ❓🗨️
