Happy New Year,
I hope you have had a great start into the new year. I for myself can´t complain. We went to bed right after the fireworks and had a restful night. The first walk around the neighborhood on New Years Day is the most calm of the whole year. Most people are still asleep or still out and about. We didn´t do anything at all on NYE, made pulled beef, spinach dip and got a delicious bread. This is our yearly tradition. On the 1rst of January we always visit my in-laws for some chili at night. The sky this night has been amazing. I have never seen a pink and purple sky before. It was like a sign from above that this is going to be a great year.
Christmas break was really fun and filled with lots of activities and family time but we are ready to get back to normal life with Kindergarten and schedules or at least I am.
Anyways I wanted to start my Weekly Review series again. I was a pretty beloved series I have startet last January but I got pregnant and only made it to #8 before I was always sick each and every day and after that it was pretty much surviving with two toddlers at home.
Meals
WEDNESDAY – We had Chili for dinner at my in-laws. I don´t know the chili recipe my MIL is using but I love this one and the best is that you can throw it into your slow cooker and it is done when you get home.
THURSDAY – was leftover day. Some potatoes, meat and different sausages had to go so we made roasted potatoes and added all the other ingredients to it.
FRIDAY – It was take-out pizza day cause I have been cleaning and putting away Christmas all day and was too tired too cook.
SATURDAY – Homemade tomatoe soup. I always cook the same soup you can view the reicpe here.
SUNDAY – Beef stew at my in-laws house.
Fashion
Since I have started #nospendjanuary I am still sharing outfit inspo but I only might be able to links some of the newer pieces, if they are still in stock.
Activities
To be honest with all the days off and winter break time really flies by. All the kids are at home and need constantly something so the days fly by. It was snowing the last two days so the bigger kids were able to build little snowmen and go sliding but that was quite it. This week included lots of playtime at home and also at grandma´s house.
Misc
Although I am not buying anything this month I wanted to share that H&M is having a huge sale with lots of pieces up to 70% on sale.
