✨ Task: Baking Day
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I always add something baked to the lunchboxes like a muffin or biscuits. I usually always bake with the intention to freeze. I place the frozen muffin/biscuits into lunch boxes that morning and it's always defrosted by morning tea time. I spend an hour or two in the kitchen every few weeks to stock up the freezer. My favourites are coconut & pineapple muffins, 100+ cookies, and ham muffins 👩‍🍳🍪

✨ Task: Wardrobe Declutter
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
In our new year refresh series, we turned around our coat hangers to see at the beginning of the next season what we haven’t worn (my hanger method). I forgot to take a photo but you will see the number of clothes I haven’t worn between then and now in my stories. There were quite a few. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have since gone through and purged them and because I have to be honest with you, I have put on weight in this past year and choosing clothes to wear in the mornings has been a little depressing as there are quite a few that don’t fit me. It has only been 24 hours since I tidied up my wardrobe but waking up this morning and picking my clothes was already a brighter and easier start to my day 💛
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
LOL, and yes I colour code my clothes.

✨ Task: Create A Meal Plan
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Each week I plan my meals for the upcoming week- what most people call meal or menu planning. I have been doing this for a good 18 years and I can't recommend it enough! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
It really is a simple task that takes 5-10 minutes to plan one week of meals. The money and time that these five minutes save me throughout my week, makes it well worth the effort. Plus, I’m not a huge fan of visiting the grocery store more than once a week 🛒
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I have been online grocery shopping for nearly 2 years now. I love it, I rarely see the inside the grocery store these days. I do a local pick up and use my laundry basket with legs instead of bags. Makes unpacking when in the kitchen so much easier 😊
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Do you meal plan? If not will you give it a try? If you do, why do you love it?
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Don't forget to share your photo!
