This week, we’re doing some organization on the mounds of media we receive and access. I personally love to receive magazines, especially when we are overseas. It is nice to have short blurbs to read as a busy mommy (when that seems to be all the time I have). We get to keep up with …

52 Week Challenge Week 19: Bathrooms
Oh, bathrooms. How I love having bathrooms! It’s the plural that get excited about, because growing up, my brothers, sisters, and parents all shared one. Yep, you read that right – one bathroom for all those people. And that’s not counting friends or guests. Now we have several bathrooms, and while that is really nice …

52 week challenge Week 18: Grocery shopping
N Grocery shopping is important to get under control because we can easily end up spending a lot of our budgeted funds feeding the troops. Some targeted attention can almost always reduce the number unless you are already cutting to the bone–but for most of us (thank Gd!) we don’t have to. What kind of …

52 Week challenge week 17: Kitchen review and reset
I don’t know about you, but my kitchen still isn’t fully back to normal from Pesach yet. Mostly, but not fully there. How about you? This week, I’m focusing on sorting through my kitchen. Time to take out what we don’t use in addition to putting things back and rearranging them. For example, our coffee …

52 Week challenge: Week 15: Chag Sameach (Happy Passover!)

52 week challenge Week 14: Pesach and the kitchen
This week’s challenge is easy to guess – Pesach prep! This week is going to be the kitchen for many (most?) of us, which is by far the most labor intensive part of the process. Then, after the turnover, you still have to cook and feed your family (without using your built-in appliances). Since I’m …

52 Week Challenge Week 10: Purim
Can you believe we’re in the 10th week of the year already? This week’s extra energy is for Purim. It’s celebrated on Wednesday night and Thursday (March 7 and 8), preceded by a Wednesday fast (Taanit Esther). I’ve written on finding deals for Purim and a little more in depth on preparing for Purim. This …
