    • In less than a month, that mini blob nugget (8-ish weeks old in this picture!) will turn 1! The joy I have felt from watching him develop into a busy, curious, independent (almost) toddler is immeasurable ❤️
    • I don't shop often for clothes, and when I do it's usually #secondhand but with free time being a much more limited resource these days, I am starting to turn to sustainability-focused brands for closet updates.⁣ ⁣ I recently posted a list of great sustainable clothing brands on the website - if you're curious then click the blog link in my profile and search "sustainable clothing brands"⁣ ⁣ For instance, I'm still really happy with the order I received from @organicbasics a few months ago. If you're in the market for basics like t-shirts and underwear they are a solid option!⁣
    • Happy Mother's Day - I can't believe that this day last year I was 8 months pregnant with this little miracle boy! ⁣ Feeling both grateful for him and for my own mommy (his "mimi") today ❤️ I can't believe this guy turns 1 next month!!!⁣
    • My husband is an awesome cook (#ChefBoyarT) and cooks almost every single meal for our family each week (the man legit delivers breakfast to me upstairs so I can eat it while getting myself ready in the mornings before work...).⁣ ⁣ My husband is just a little less good at cleaning (my job!) so considering all of the meals he creates in the kitchen and coffee he brews in the mornings, our sink takes a beating. It usually looks a bit more gray/brown at the end of the week than it did at the start.⁣ ⁣ Easy solution: baking soda + hydrogen peroxide.⁣ ⁣ Wet your sink, sprinkle baking soda, soak a sponge or cleaning cloth with hydrogen peroxide, the scrub away stains.⁣ ⁣ It works incredibly well - you have to try it!⁣ ⁣
    • Earlier this week I posted about our #zerowaste grocery haul - but I also want to shout out a (new to us) produce delivery service called @imperfectproduce.⁣ ⁣ With my husband and I both managing full time jobs plus an 11 month old and ambitious house project goals (garden beds are SO close to being complete!), it's always a bummer when precious weekend hours are spent on chores like grocery shopping.⁣ ⁣ @imperfectproduce has been a time saving option that we can feel good about from a sustainability perspective. Check out their website to see if they deliver in your area!⁣
    • My husband (#ChefBoyarT) is the cook and grocery shopper in our household, and he has done SUCH a good job with using re-usable bags, sticking to bulk bins and avoiding plastic packaging.⁣ ⁣ This is a photo of a recent haul from our local @sprouts - not pictured are the jars he had the butcher fill with meat (that we store in the fridge). I want to make it clear that we aren't perfect - sometimes a plastic jar of PB comes home or a box of crackers or pre-packaged baby food (#life) but the progress feels good so far!⁣ ⁣ When he comes home, my job is to organize the fridge and empty bulk bin bags into clean jars for him to easily access when he cooks our meals that week. We make a pretty good team :😊
