Here & There 1.8

It's Friday, friends. Saturday Jr. What do you have planned for the days to come? Chris and I will be making good on one of my goals for 2016 and doing laundry in a timely manner (whoo!) and going to the grocery store. It's another weekend where he has a crazy schedule (renaissance man that he is, he's now working as a butcher at a store here in Philly) so we're getting quality time where we can - groceries, laundry, Netflix in bed. I actually love going to the grocery store, so many possibilities! I'm hoping to do some meal prep with our winnings on Sunday and am planning to make a big batch of carrot-ginger juice to use in smoothies and then a big batch of grain-free carrot-ginger muffins with the juice cast-offs (I hate throwing away all that pulp). I also have "get library card" on my to-do list. There's a library branch super close to our house, it's silly that I've waited this long.

After stressful December, I love how free and clear January feels. It's the perfect time to chill, maybe get organized (I've decided I'll clean one closet per weekend this month), and work on goals set for the new year. I hope your weekend is a good one!
