HELLOOOOOOO!!! Well y’all, today is the big day – I’ll be doing my presentation at the Arkansas Women Bloggers University conference on food photography! I’m pumped about it and hope that it’s super helpful to these amazing gals in this state – I’d love your prayers and happy thoughts! It’s the first time I’ll be away from my boys for a few full days and while I know Nate’s going to rock it (let’s face it, they’re all past due for some dude time), I’m going to miss them so much. There will probably-slash-definitely be an obscene amount of tears on my part when I leave later this morning.

 

OH! OK, so I’ve been hard at work the past couple of weeks on this presentation and the one I’ll be doing on Sunday morning, but one thing I’m super excited about getting more involved with next week is PERISCOPE! Have you heard of it? It’s like YouTube, but you can stream it live and the replays only live for 24 hours after the live stream. You guys can ask questions and make comments while I’m chatting too, which it awesome – I love hearing from you guys! It’s an app, so make sure you download it and follow along @heathersdish. My initial thoughts are to do coffee dates, talk about blogging and motherhood, work-at-home-mom stuff, and probably just some general shenanigans…but please contact me however you want if you have questions or want to know about specific stuff!

 

Alright, I’m out…but y’all enjoy these awesome links this weekend!

 

1. The Allume Keynotes are up from last year! Y’all, these are some amazing talks. I can’t pick just one favorite – you’ll want to listen to them all! (Allume)

 

2. A great post on how to balance life as a working mom. So many great tips, and so sweetly written! (Glitter Guide)

 

3. Absolutely can’t get enough of this terrarium side table. The very moment I have time to make it, it’s happening. BIG TIME. (A Beautiful Mess)

 

4. Ever wonder how to achieve that French girl style? This is a great little “tutorial” with fantastic examples. I’m all over the stripes one! (Verily)

 

5. This is by FAR the prettiest tart I’ve ever seen in my life. Like, I want to cry it’s so pretty. And then I want to devour it. (Southern Fatty)

 

6. Mary Beth has a new website that’s a great resource for motherhood – Schooner Kids! Love her style, her heart and her knowledge! (Schooner Kids)

 

7. This new-to-me blog. Love the photography, the city guides, the podcasts, all of it! (From the Table Top)

 

8. This. I don’t think I’ll ever have it all together, but when I look at the two sweet, cuddly, amazing reasons why? I’ll take it! (Wit & Delight)

 

9. Monica has a new awesome series on parenting teen & preteen boys! I’m a ways away, but I feel like this parenting thing is the test of a lifetime and I better start studying now. Loved this second post a TON! (Monica Swanson)

 

10. While my tomato plants are lazy and producing next to nothing, two of my jalapeno plants are rockstars and kicking out a ton of spicy peppers! I’ll be making a bunch of my friend Rebecca’s Cowboy Candy with them. A few months from now I’ll be shoveling it into my face for days… (Foodie with Family)

☀️Samples time! Interested in snagging some ☀️Samples time! 

Interested in snagging some clean sunscreen (FSA eligible🙌)? Or what about brightening your complexion? Or both? I’m sending out samples this weekend and would love to get some happy mail to YOU TOO! Drop your favorite emoji below and I’ll be in touch!
Just popping in from the place moms flock to on ra Just popping in from the place moms flock to on rainy days just to get out of the dang house: the aisles of Target. 😂 Not a lot to say, but I’m going to leave you  with 3 affirmations I want you to repeat to yourself today:

❤️ I AM STRONG
❤️ I AM CAPABLE
❤️ I AM ENOUGH

BECAUSE YOU ARE. Have a wonderful day friends!
Working on my #avoquados y’all! This protein smo Working on my #avoquados y’all! This protein smoothie has 40 grams of protein, lots of green goodness and tastes like a pineapple-vanilla dream!

- 1 cup water
- 1 cup frozen pineapple
- 1 cup frozen kale or spinach
- 1 scoop vanilla protein
- 1 serving collagen peptides (I use 2 scoops of @bulletproof brand; some brands just have one big scoop)
- 1 scoop greens powder (I used @amazinggrass)

Blend and enjoy!
🥗 FAST FOOD! Real real: I hate when people are 🥗 FAST FOOD!

Real real: I hate when people are all, “you can cook food in the same time it takes to grab takeout.” That is not always true, and sometimes it’s just about not wanting to try. Effort is hard, amen?!

Today I’m thankful to have had the energy and want-to to cook something a little healthier and save a little money. That’s not always the case, but today it was and I’ll count it as a win!

In the bowl: 3/4 cup black beans, 1/4 cup corn, 2 big handfuls of spinach, and two eggs. Seasoned it all with salt, pepper, garlic and smoked paprika!

Any wins y’all feel like sharing today? Let’s hear it and celebrate!
Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Oats! (AKA the thi Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Oats! (AKA the thing I’ve been eating on repeat all week):

- 1/2 cup old fashioned rolled oats
- 1/2 cup water
- 1/2 cup milk of choice
- 2 tablespoons brewed coffee (optional)*
- 2 tablespoons powdered peanut butter
- 1 tablespoon cocoa powder
- 1 tablespoon ground flax seeds
- 1 serving unflavored collagen peptides
- Sweetener of choice
- 1 tablespoon chocolate chips

Heat the oats, water, milk and coffee in a small saucepan over medium heat. Cook until thickened to your liking (although keep in kind the flax seeds and cooling will thicken it even further). Remove from the heat and stir in the remaining ingredients except the chocolate chips; I like to use a whisk to make sure the collagen doesn’t clump. Pour in a bowl, sprinkle with the chocolate chips and enjoy!

*I love to add a little coffee to mine to help enhance the chocolate flavor, but you do you!
And sometimes this is what it means to “work fro And sometimes this is what it means to “work from home.” 😂
Mentioned this yesterday in the ol’ stories, but Mentioned this yesterday in the ol’ stories, but thought it was worth sharing here too. When it comes to how I plan out meals, I look for 3 things:

🥗Whole foods. Not like the store (that’s called Whole Paycheck, right?), but meaning foods that haven’t been minimally processed. Fresh veggies, lean protein sources, whole grains, etc. I do have a few processed things on hand (protein bars) just in case I’m in a place where I need something SUPER quick, but that’s it. 

🥗High fiber. There are so many reasons we should be getting in plenty of fiber (Google is your friend here guys), but if I’m being honest I just feel better when I’m getting plenty of it. Leaner, more regular, more satiated. The list goes on! Besides the obvious fresh produce, I also eat plenty of legumes, whole grains (rolled oats, farro, quinoa - even though it’s a seed), flax and chia seeds.

🥗Hit my protein goals. Again, an essential nutrient. I have composition goals, and for my muscles to recover from my hard workouts I have to make sure I’m getting in enough protein. For me this means chicken, fish, and the occasional beef or pork.

Wondering - would y’all be interested in how I do my meal planning and shopping trips?  If so just drop your favorite emoji below!
It’s Friday, which means a myriad of things:

1️⃣Weekend vibes! Think soccer games, yard work, church, family time. Love it!
2️⃣The end of my meal prep. Not gonna lie, I won’t make this stew again...although the couscous was a fun addition!
3️⃣Sleeping in. HALLELUJAH.
4️⃣A chance to set up next week to be a great one!

It’s going to be a fabulous weekend y’all. What are you up to?!
#brinner to the rescue tonight! I could just kick #brinner to the rescue tonight! I could just kick myself for not showing y’all how orange these yolks were. 🍳 Eggs are one of the foods I spend a little more on because the flavor and nutrient density are worth it!
.
Pictured: seared mushrooms, roasted baby broccoli, bacon and 2 eggs. Not pictured: another parfait like last night’s because 😋.

What’s your brinner go-to?!
