MEAL PREPPING

Image may contain: food

Hello everyone and welcome back!!

Today I tried something new! I am meal prepping. I am trying meal prepping because I live a very hectic life. As does everyone else. From school to work, I do not have time to breath. I go straight from school to work or work allll day. Which means, I have to pack breakfast, lunch, and dinner. Also, I am not the healthiest person in the world. I definitely eat fast food at least once during the week. There is only one thing that can solve all of my problems. TIME TO MEAL PREP

Ingredients-

  • 1- red Onion
  • 1- medium zucchini
  • 1- cup of chopped grape tomatoes
  • 1.5- heads of broccoli
  • handful of asparagus (honestly not really sure)
  • 2- boneless chicken breasts
  • 1 cup of rice
  • olive oil
  • italian seasoning

Cooking-
Preheat oven to 450

1.) Cut up all of your veggies and chicken into bite size pieces

4.) Place sheet of veggies and chicken in oven. Bake for 20 minutes or until chicken is cooked through.

This will provide me with five dinners this week. I also made veggie pasta for my lunch this week. I added a picture of the pasta I bought.

Shopping Shopping and More Shoppig

Does anyone else absolutely love shopping?

I am the shopping QUEEN. I know this, because I always have to sneak past my mom when coming home with ten shopping bags… Honestly, I had to do this today. Sorry mom.

Do you ever pray that your online orders come when your mom, dad, or significant other is not home? Trust me I have been there. Multiple times. I have been caught… multiple times.

All jokes aside I want to share with you guys my favorite stores.

1.) Glik’s – I know what you are thinking. You work there, obviously you would put it at number one. But, you would be wrong. Glik’s provides affordable clothing close to home. Glik’s had a huge variety for everyone. That is what I love about it. I attached a photo below to show a full Glik’s outfit!

2.) Forever 21 – Everyone loves this store. It is cheap. It is.. well it is cheap. The cheapness is the best part. Forever 21 is very affordable but you HAVE to have time to look. So if you are not a big shopper, then this is not the store for you. Below you will find a trench coat I adore from Forever 21 in Chicago. THIS COAT WAS ONLY $12!!!

3.) Last but certainly not least: Express – I am in love with this store. Now, Express is on the pricier side. Express is a great place for business appropriate attire. They have a classier style. Also, if you sign up for rewards then you can get some amazing deals. In the picture below I have a top on from Express. I snagged this shirt for LESS THAN $20!

I would love for all of you to let me know what topics you would like to see more or less of!

Thanks for joining me today! Stayed tuned next week for more! XOXO

About me:)

Hello beauties!

Thank you for visiting my pages and I hope you enjoy.

A little bit about me:

I am a small town girl with a big city mind. I currently attend Lewis and Clark and will be graduating this spring. HOORAY!! This upcoming fall semester I will be attending Columbia College of Chicago. At Columbia, I will be studying fashion. I am not sure if I want to study merchandising or product development. Either choice sounds AMAZING to me.

My job occupation is retail. I work as the senior assistant manger at a store called Glik’s. Glik’s is a lovely company and has outstanding choices for everyone in the family.  Glik’s has fed into my fashion addiction. I job shadowed at the home office at Glik’s. I was shadowing for fashion buying. This experience definitley showed me that I am on the right track.

Blogging is also a very new thing to me. I am so ecstatic to share my life with you all. I will be blogging about fashion tips, college advice, food recommendations, and much much more!

Stay tuned for my second blog post, which I will be posting soon!

Thank you for joining me on this journey! 🙂
