MINIMALIST AND SUSTAINABLE LIFESTYLE WITH NORDGREEN

MINIMALIST AND SUSTAINABLE LIFESTYLE WITH NORDGREEN

Hello Everyone,

I hope you’re all doing great and still pushing on be it indoors or starting to venture out a bit. Now I don’t know about you but when it comes to fashion, I am not one to follow trends or go with the crowd. I prefer having something I really do like and fits in with my minimalist and sustainable lifestyle and thanks to Nordgreen, I get to do just that by adding a Native black leather watch to my wardrobe essentials which suits me perfectly and I couldn’t be happier. If you haven’t heard about Nordgreen, well it’s a Danish watch company that offers a sustainable, functional yet affordable collection of men’s / women’s watches with classic Scandinavian design.

STOVE TOP TENDER CHICKEN STEW

STOVE TOP TENDER CHICKEN STEW

Recipe week (Day 5)

We are almost there, it’s day 5 and another recipe is coming your way. So apparently we are going to be on lock down for another 3 weeks, at this point I don’t even know what to think anymore. I used to complain on how school runs were getting difficult and tiresome but its times like these that I’d totally love to walk for 30 minutes and pick up my son. How are you all coping by the way? Unless I am the only one overreacting and I have no idea. My baby boy turns 2 this weekend and I have already seen what the terrible twos have in store for me that’s why the playground being open would totally be lifesaving or anything that doesn’t involve running around the house screaming. Let’s just jump right into today’s recipe, my stove top tender chicken stew.

Hey, it’s me again and we are on day 3 of this recipe week. I hope you’re all doing great and that you’ve already seen my day 1 and 2 for this week. So what’s on today?

I don’t know what it is but it just doesn’t mesh well with me when it’s super plain hence my recipe for you today are these delicious and simple tuna fish cakes. For this recipe, you will need;

Hiya,

I hope you all had a good break now that schools are back on. I thought it would actually feel like a real break for me  but let’s just say that having both of them at home, at the same time, all day and the gloomy weather wasn’t as relaxing. Anyway, a while back I decided to give you all a recipe week where I shared a recipe everyday to catch up with my cooking videos, which can be hectic to schedule to go with a blog post at the same time. So today I am back with another recipe which didn’t make it to that list but so worth it and it’s my roasted butternut squash soup. For this delicious soup recipe, you will need;

CHECK OUT THESE 10 REASONS WHY YOU SHOULD START A BLOG

Hi Everyone,

How is everyone doing? I hope you had a great start of the year. I don’t even know where to begin since it’s been a while since I came on here and wrote something. A little update about my life, so we moved house and still have stuff in boxes, I am yet to put up curtains and drill holes. My son had to change schools and the closest one is apparently out of spaces left. My school runs are not as exciting as before but he will still have to change schools again come next school year. Anyway, it’s been a lot and I have literally not felt like writing anything nor have I recorded any recipes. So, since February is here, I decided to give you reasons why you should start a blog today.
