5 on Friday


THE GOOD LIFE BLOG

{ONE}

After all my complaining about October, we actually had a fabulous Halloween. I can't tell you how excited I was that Ethan actually got to experience some real trick or treating. I think he will be super pumped next year! After all, the boy is just like his mama and anything involving sugar will get him excited. And can I just say that candy-tax is ah-mazing…sorry kid, everyone has gotta pay up :) He won't even know it's missing. Seriously, though…rationing this stuff is going to be hard on the little guy.

We started doing emeals about 3 weeks ago and I have to say I am loving it! I thought the control freak and self professed food snob in me would hate being assigned meals every week, but I have been so impressed with the recipes and the way the food has turned out that I honestly don't mind. We are currently on the Clean Eating plan and the Healthy Lunch plan and I couldn't be happier. It's made meal planning and dinner time so much easier and of course, healthier! It has been so nice to cut fast food out of our diet (except when we are in a pinch) and I'm already feeling healthier. Is it saving us money? I think time will tell.

I found this body wash about a month ago at Target and I'm so glad I did. It is the Organix Teatree and Peppermint Body wash and it is amazing! I love how clean it makes you feel. It even gives you that tingle effect which, of course means it's working right?

The cable cords are officially cut! Hello $90/mo. savings!


I've had a few people ask questions about this process/decision and I'm thinking about writing a full review once we have experienced this a little more. If you have any questions please ask and I will try to answer them in the review or via email!

I'm not sure how many Knoxville neighbors I have reading, but if you are local, you need to check out the new Knoxville City Mom's blog that is launching on Monday! I'm excited to be joining 8 other amazing women as a contributor for the blog and will be attending many of the local events. Come check us out on Facebook for more info. We've got our first play-date scheduled for next week and lots of other upcoming events and giveaways planned. I'd love to meet you in person! Here is the KMB team...

  1. We cut our cable too and have not looked back! We use Netflix, Xfinity and Hulu Plus and hardly miss out on anything! If only they had ala-cart channels I would consider cable again but I dont miss that hefty bill :) Happy Friday!
