If you’re new to this series, I’m currently working on decluttering 1,001 items from our home as part of one of my goals for my 101 in 1001 list. Back in 2013, I did a massive decluttering project I called 50 Weeks to Organized, where we got rid of approximately 50% of our belongings. Since …

Back in 2019, I started sharing the plans we had for projects in the house and yard that year, along with what we actually were able to accomplish. While last year’s ended up being a total bust (since we ended up moving, which was never in the original plan), it’s still something I want to …

Food Storage 101: How Do I Afford It? {+ Why Should I Care?}
For many years now, Matt and I have had a decent food storage cushion—at almost any given time in our marriage, we’ve had around a 1-2 month supply of pantry staples and shelf-stable food on hand, for whatever unplanned event might come up, whether that was a smaller-than-expected paycheck or getting sick and being unable …
