**What’s Up Wednesday** {5.26.2021}

May 26, 2021 / 6 Comments

It’s the last Wednesday of the month, and it’s the last Wednesday of the school year!

 On this day, I link up with Mix and Match Mama and Sheaffer. I share a little bit of everything that’s been going on with us lately. 

1. What We Are Eating This Week:

This week, with it being the last week of school, I am literally just grabbing whatever I can find. 

Monday we had Orange Chicken, Fried Rice, and Sautéed vegetables

Tuesday was BBQ sandwiches with coleslaw and French fries. 

Wednesday is Grilled chicken with vegetables. 

Thursday is a hodge podge of leftovers. 

Friday is Girl’s Night Out! 

 

I am including my Burnt Broccoli recipe below because a lot of you asked me for it. It’s so super easy!

I just wash and cut up my broccoli and put on a baking sheet. I set the oven to 425 degrees. 

I usually put about a Tablespoon of Olive Oil. Then, I sprinkle on some seasoning. I usually do salt, pepper, and some Greek seasoning. I cook it until it’s nice and crispy. I like it pretty much burnt. So, maybe about 20 minutes give or take. I like lots of crunchiness. 

 

This is how I feel about our lunches right now. Ha!

2. What I’m Reminiscing About: 

I had a lot of memories pop up on social media. 

Like this gem from a concert 10 years ago. I am pretty sure it was Country Fest, and it was so hot! 

This was from 10 years ago. It was one of my best friend’s wedding and our first wedding as a couple. 

I had a bunch of Mother’s day memories pop up. Like this one of me and Donna “Mable” from 7 years ago. 

Mother’s Day 3 years ago.

Mother’s Day 2 years ago. 

3. What I’m Loving:

I’m loving my Bogg bag! I got it for Mother’s day, and I’m super excited to use it this summer! I got mine at a boutique near me called, Palmetto Moon, but they have them at other small boutiques. They also have them at Dillards.

I will definitely be including my COOLA sunscreen in my beach bag. It’s my favorite, and I love the smell! 

4. What We’ve Been Up To:

We went to the strawberry patch this month. 

Enjoyed a sweet Mother’s day. 

We had Addison’s dance recital. It was so precious! 

5. What I’m Dreading:

I’m not dreading anything right now because we have 2 more school days!!. 😉 

 

6. What I’m Working On: 

I’m working on closing out the school year and this blog post. 

I also need to be thinking about vacations coming up in the next few weeks. 

7. What I’m Excited About: 

I am so excited that Summer is almost here! It’s so close! I’m excited about all the fun things we have planned and just sleeping in and relaxing. 🙂

8. What I’m Watching/Reading:

Ya’ll, I’ve been watching “Jane, the Virgin”, and I’m loving it. So, it’s very unrealistic, but it’s hilarious and light with a little bit of mystery and a whole lot of drama. It’s been super fun to watch! I’m only on Season 2, but I’m enjoying it!

I just finished “The Perfect Marriage“. It was a very cleverly written psychological thriller. I kept guessing who I thought the killer was. I was guessing up until the very end. When it was finally revealed, I was shocked. I would definitely recommend this one if you like thrillers. 

I just started reading “The Newcomer“. I can’t wait to have time to actually read.

9. What I’m Listening To: 

Addison has something playing on Netflix as I’m working on this blog post. 

10. What I’m Wearing: 

I’m loving these shorts from Old Navy! I want to get them in all the colors. They’re so comfortable! 

My shirt is from Loft last year. 

Similar Top / Shorts / Sandals 

Right now the Loft is having a great sale! Tees, Tanks, & Shorts are 50% off. Almost everything else is 40% off! 

11. What I’m Doing This Weekend: 

It is Memorial Day weekend, which is one of my favorite holidays. Saturday morning, we have to be somewhere pretty early. Then, we have tickets to go see the circus/fair that evening. 

I am hoping we get some pool time in. 

If you missed my post on Memorial Day Must-haves, it’s right here. 

12. What I’m Looking Forward to Next Month:

VACAY!!! Sleeping in! Lots of Snuggle Time! 

13. What Else is New:

I saw this on social media, and it made me laugh so hard… so true! 

Thank you all for reading. I hope you have an awesome day!! See you back here on Friday!
