10 Kitchen Habits To Save Time + Avoid Waste

10 Kitchen Habits To Save Time + Avoid Waste

I love spending time in the kitchen! I get SO much joy out of standing in our quiet, sunlit kitchen, washing strawberries in our farmhouse sink, stirring soup, chopping veggies for curry, or whipping up another batch of oatmeal bars. My husband grew up in a home where they really love spending time in the kitchen together, as well - whether it is spent sitting around the kitchen table chatting about their day, playing games, or chopping up ingredients for a family taco night (I LOVE those!). … [Read more...]

Homemaking Checklists Roundup (+ a Giveaway!)

Over the past few years, I've really been able to hone in on certain, more specific topics for Just Bee. One of my favorite topics to write about lately is the home: creating a cozy home, organizing it, cleaning it, and filling it with love. :) I'd asked my readers a while ago what topics you'd enjoy reading more about and the majority of you said you'd be happy to see more homemaking posts! It was really exciting to see more interest in terms of posts on this topic, since it is something … [Read more...]

How We Simplified The Planning For Our Europe Trip

It has been so much fun writing up all these posts from our recent 2-week trip to Europe! They've functioned as a really great journal for me as well.

RELATED: Our 2-Week Europe Trip Itinerary Europe 2016 was quite the adventure!

How to Set Up a Family Health Journal

How to Set Up a Family Health Journal

Ahh, adulting. ;) Sometimes Bjorn and I just have to pause and laugh about the things we find ourselves talking about on a daily basis. Post-college, married life is full of "adulting" tasks! Discussing our investments is common. Or talking about laundry, or taking out the trash, or mail, or car maintenance... Handling doctor's appointments is another aspect of adult life that isn't particularly glamorous but sure is important! You may have seen the caption go by on my Instagram account last … [Read more...]

Saturday Morning Rituals For a More Satisfying Weekend

Saturday Morning Rituals For a More Satisfying Weekend

I. Love. Weekends. But don't we all? :) For some of you, the weekend means you get to spend time visiting friends or family you don't get to see often. For some of you, weekends mean your husband is home with you and the kids, something you look forward to all week long! Some of you relish weekends for their busyness and for the activities and outings you get to pack into your schedule. And some of you probably savor those slooooow lazy mornings and quiet evenings (I fall into the latter … [Read more...]

How to Change Mindless Tasks Into Mindful Tasks – 6 Tips For Simple Living

I love the whole concept of simple living. I love the idea of simplifying your life so that you can relish the tasks in front of you even more. My husband and I aren't minimalists, and I never want to mislead people by stating that we are or that we practice utterly foundational simple living...but we have chosen to simplify our lives in some little ways - even in ways that surprise people. I think you can practice simplicity to all sorts of degrees. Here's our story: We don't have a … [Read more...]

6 Questions to Ask Before You Start Your Baby Registry

My dear friend Jordan is back on the blog today! If you're currently expecting (or if you just like to plan ahead), Jordan's offering some great advice when it comes to your baby registry. Jordan has also shared about establishing routines and hope for midnight mamas. When I found out I was pregnant with our daughter, I suddenly found myself wandering the baby aisles every time I went to Target, dreamily enjoying the little lacy socks and cute little toys (“Why, hello, Sophie the Giraffe!”) … [Read more...]
