What's Up Wednesday {June 2023}

Happy last Wednesday of the month! How are we already here?? The last Wednesday of the month means...What's Up Wednesday with Sheaffer and Shay! 

1: WHAT WE'RE EATING THIS WEEK: 

Monday night we had chicken caesar salad wraps...frozen chicken tenders and a bagged caesar kit all rolled up on a tortilla! Yum!

Last night I made crab cakes, and they were SO GOOD. I started out with Shay's recipe, but I added about a 1/2 cup of mayo, some Old Bay seasoning, and a little fresh lemon juice. I baked them in the oven on 375 degrees four about 25 minutes. Per Shay's recommendation, I served them with some pesto penne! We also used Redbone Alley Nawlins' Remoulade to dip them. They were way easier than I thought they would be! 

Tonight we're having Shay's Pepperoni Ranch Pasta Salad with a sandwich.

Tomorrow night we'll have fish tacos. 

Friday night, well.....probably Mexican😂.

2: WHAT I'M REMINISCING ABOUT: 

This past weekend....

3: WHAT I'M LOVING:

I've never really been one to care that I was super pale, even in the middle of summer. I value my skin way more than a tan. You can always find me under an umbrella with TONS of sunscreen on! BUT, this past weekend something changed. What that is, I have no clue😂. I used some of my sister's self tanner and really loved it. I really don't know if I'll even have a chance to go to the pool or beach this summer. So, I decided to grab some Jergens Natural Glow at the store to try and keep up a little of the tan. I guess I'm loving tan skin lately😂.

4: WHAT WE'VE BEEN UP TO:

Well...I quit my job and decided to go back to school😳. QUITE an eventful few months it has been since deciding that! And Caleb has been working non stop....other than that I feel like we're constantly doing laundry and cleaning up the kitchen. Adulting! 

5: WHAT I'M DREADING: 

I can honestly say there is nothing I'm dreading right now! I'll take that as a win! 

6: WHAT I'M WORKING ON: 

Finishing up my book, so I can finish up my June Book Review!

7: WHAT I'M EXCITED ABOUT: 

We are going on a cruise in December with Caleb's family, and although I've been SO nervous about it, and I even tried to back out of it last week, I'm now really excited about it!! All of your cruise tips are welcomed! 

8: WHAT I'M WATCHING/READING: 

My June Book Review will go live tomorrow!! I'll be rushing to finish up my last book all day tomorrow! 

I'm also still reading my Bible! Not everyday lately, but I'm still doing The Bible Recap. I've just gotten really far behind, unfortunately. I'm trying to do better with it, though! 

9: WHAT I'M LISTENING TO: 

Well, I haven't changed any in the last month, so I'm still listening to Taylor Swift. Constantly. 😂

10: WHAT I'M WEARING: 

It is HOT in Mississippi already, so I'm trying to stay as cool as possible in lots and lots of dresses! Here are two recent faves...

Pink Amazon dress

English Factory dress

11: WHAT I'M DOING THIS WEEKEND: 

I'm off on Monday and Tuesday, so I'll be headed to my mom's for the weekend. My plan for Monday is to get a new passport, get a new phone, and go spend the rest of my bridal credit at the store I did my wedding registry at! Big ambitions for that day! 

12: WHAT I'M LOOKING FORWARD TO NEXT MONTH: 

Well....my last day of work is at the end of July, so YAY! Then, I'm headed to Nashville with my sister and her boyfriend to go visit our dad. I can't wait for all the good food and shopping!! And then Caleb's birthday is at the end of July. Lots to do next month!!

13: FAVORITE AMAZON PURCHASE THIS MONTH: 

Hands down, these face towels! I have always hated using hand towels to dry my face. I refuse to use one that's been used- all I can think about is bacteria! These make it SO much easier. Plus, they are biodegradable! I like the XL better, and went ahead and set up an auto shipment, so I never have to worry about reordering or running out.

    What a great idea- I've never thought of making crab cakes before. YUM! Good luck on going back to school.

      I've never really thought about making them, either! They were sooo easy though. Thank you so much!

 Happy Friday, friends!! And Merry Christmas Eve Eve Eve Eve Eve- that's a thing, right??😂 I'm linking up with Erika and Andrea today to share some faves from the week, and then I will be off for the holidays! My plan is to see y'all back here on January 13! For some food faves.... I grabbed the raspberry kringle at Aldi the other day after seeing so many positive reviews on it. It is really good!! I had some with a cup of coffee a couple times this week! Last night, Caleb made lasagna soup- YUM. Definitely a favorite of mine lately! A great way to end the night.... Caleb made me a cosmopolitan the other night. Yum! I am really going to miss this sight.... This is my favorite time of year for sure! Twinkly lights and candle light = the BEST. On my drive home from work yesterday.... This was a fun little surprise. I don't remember this from last year! I hope you all have a great weekend and a very Merry Christmas and a Happy Holiday! However, whatever, whenever, whereve...

 Happy Friday, friends!! How was your week? One of my summer classes started this week, so I have been getting back into a bit of a routine which is nice! As always, I am linking up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from the week.  How cute is our new wreath sash?? My mom got it for us, and I am obsessed! Lots of food faves this week.... Another salsa I am now obsessed with! I found this at Aldi, and y'all it is SO good! I used it in a recipe, but I am definitely going to get another jar to eat for a snack or with lunch or dinner! Now for a Tik Tok "recipe". I used quotations, because it's really just a chop/open a can and throw together situation. Corn, black beans, pinto beans, onion, tomato, cilantro. I ate it with tortilla chips for lunch this week. It was so good! Next time, I would add more tomato and use less onion (maybe even no onion at all), and I should have chopped up the cilantro a little better! I also squeezed in some lime juice and added salt a...

Friday Favorites {8.29.25}

 Happy last Friday of August! As always, I am here to link up with Erika and Andrea to share some faves from my week.  To be honest, it feels out of touch to make this post. After the devastating news of yet another school shooting, my heart is so heavy. Innocent lives taken and still no changes from people in power. I honestly do not know how anyone can see news like this and not be enraged and demanding for change. I do not get political on here, because that is not what I want for this space. However, I feel the need to share my thoughts about this. America needs gun control. ALL Americans need access to healthcare, especially when it comes to mental health. America needs change. Remember these things when you vote. Think about your babies, their friends, their teachers. Stay aware, stay educated. But also please make sure you spend time doing things that bring you joy (it's good for your mental health!). That is at least what I am going to do. With that being said, here ar...
