Untraditionally Traditional: A Millennial Homemaker

Do you feel like you have a never-ending to-do list that you can’t seem to get out from under? Do you forget things you were supposed to do or wanted to accomplish? That was me before I developed a task system. Originally it was on paper, but it has been transitioned to software I came across that makes managing the many roles in life so much easier.

Overwhelmed by cleaning? This episode is for you. There is a better way to clean our home than the 3 hours of dedication one day a week. Let’s face it, that method doesn’t last. Daily rotational cleaning is the answer. Join me as I discuss how this method works and why we love it in our home!

Let’s get into the garden! In this episode, I discuss different garden styles and why we chose raised beds. We started our garden from scratch this year, and I am sharing that process and some of the costs in this episode. This episode also includes a huge time-saving tip for starting your seeds!

In this episode, I dive into meal planning, bulk grocery shopping, and bulk washing/prep of produce. I have adopted a practice that I genuinely look forward to every week. Most people hear the words "meal planning" and want to run in the other direction, not with this method. It will feel like a weekly treat, and you will be thanking yourself all week long when you know exactly what you are making for dinner and have all the ingredients on hand and ready to go!
