A tip is to ease into the habit of packing your lunch! Start with just every Monday (or whatever day you decide), then transition into Mon-Weds, then Mon-Weds-Fri, etc etc. Putting pressure on yourself to pack it every single day from the getgo is just setting yourself up for disappointment! I would know 😂

@RachelVinn 2 года назад

i love this idea

@hunterwright339 2 года назад

Start packing it the night before and leave it in the fridge put any condiments on the side in a separate container- makes life 1000 times easier in the morning where you just grab it and go. Don’t wake up earlier just make it the night before ☺️☺️ even if you make extra for dinner throw some leftovers in a container in a lunch bag or plastic bag in the fridge and grab and go :)

I love how neat and clean your home is. That’s my goal when I have my own home. I feel like a neat and tidy space makes your head space clear and peaceful too.

When I worked in the office, I really struggled with packing lunch too and usually ate out. I don't like cooking either, so it can be tough coming up.with meals. Two days a week is a good start! So glad Junie found a home. 😻

@Toriscoffeeandbooks 2 года назад

A co-worker of mine REFUSES to pack her lunch. That way she has to go out and get something so she leaves the office and is able to take a full mental break and mind shift for an hour. If you budget into your spending I don't see a problem with eating out

You have to make sure the lettuce is dry and wrap it around a paper towel to absorb the moisture! To keep the lettuce dry and crispy. Also, don't cut off the ends unless you will eat them. 😊

@RachelVinn 2 года назад

Thank you!!!

@carlyfisher3025 2 года назад

Every other week, I make salads for our lunches. I wash and dry the lettuce on sundays, and I bundle the lettuce together with paper towels to absorb any extra water. The water is what makes your lettuce go wilty so I would wrap in paper towels and store in a ziploc bag after you wash it :) Ps, loveeeee the new wedding set!

@francoleonelosorio9292 2 года назад

Packing your lunch? I love it!!! I just read the title and said "I have to watch it"... I love your videos!

@DenelleBridgelal 2 года назад

From my knowledge, if the lettuce is left with moisture, it starts to wilt, so maybe pat it dry before you store in an airtight container xx

I just wanna say my lunch is also an important part of my day. I have lunch planned out for most days and meal prep, but I cannot tell you how many times I walk past the fridge with my lunch in it to go eat out. If it makes your work day more enjoyable DO IT! We are already at work so might as well eat what makes you happy! #nolunchshade

@jellyflower32 2 года назад

I usually cook extra food in the evening and make sure both my bf and I have one dinner and a lunch for the next day. If you need to make dinner every day anyway you can just make more of the same food. Otherwise I think preparing some meat, fish, tofu or even chickpeas in the evening, just in the oven for instance as well as some rice or grain of some kind and adding it to a salad that you can throw together in the morning makes also a quick lunch. You can also try meal planning. It doesnt mean eating the same thing all the time. Also: I think pasta is quick and delicious to make on days you don't feel like cooking a lot. And since you've mentioned you don't enjoy cooking a tip can be by starting with some staple dishes you love to eat at restaurants. You probably still like eating tasty food so it can maybe be a motivation?

I'm so excited. Im in the process of switching jobs! The job I'm currently is just not making me happy anymore. Everytime I go in I get depressed. They have lied to me so many times about different things. The new job I'll be doing is a field technician. The funny thing is is that I've always wanted to do something in that field. I love meeting new people and just being outside for work. I'll find out either today or tomorrow when my start day is going to be. I'm so excited to leave the company I'm at now lol

@riafuller8443 2 года назад

I used to work in an office with very few employees and had a small kitchen with a fridge. I would pack a few things for the week and leave it labeled with my name on it. It wasn’t an issue since we all knew each other and respected each others stuff. It saved me money and time!

@ijustliketosmile__smilingi5733 2 года назад

Great to see you giving packing lunch a try, it never hurts to try new things! :-) If getting up early is not the way to go for you, I personally like getting my lunch ready the night before if it needs to be prepped at all. Also...I'm sad if there was an overwhelming amount of scolding from the comments; adult life is hard and gets harder (I'm in my mid-30s...it gets harder) and whether you push yourself to try something new like packing lunch or if buying lunch is your daily indulgency/you-time, as long as you aren't negatively affected, just do whatever is right and best for you. The world will take its pound of flesh no matter what, so just don't let anyone tell you what's right/best for you; at the end of the day, you know you the best.

@heidishmidi 2 года назад

Your new ring is stunning! I'm glad you mentioned the societal pressure to get a diamond. When my husband and I got married (almost two decades ago now), I wanted a very simple dainty wedding band with 5 teeny tiny diamonds. I knew exactly what I wanted, but you would not believe the amount of comments I got from people telling me I'd regret not having a big diamond. I went ahead with exactly what I wanted, and you would think it was tantamount to spousal abuse the way people judged my husband. A few years back my ring lost one of the tiny diamonds in the band and I kept scratching my kids with it by accident. I "temporarily" bought a tungsten band from Amazon for like $20, lol. I've been wearing it for 3 years now, never got around to fixing my ring. Maybe I'll check out the Etsy shop instead. =)

@RachelVinn 2 года назад

I’m with you 100%. I love this ring so much and I’m so comfortable wearing it all the time because I know it’s not thousands of dollars on my hand! I rarely wore my real ring because of fear of damaging it or losing it 😂

@lyindabnv 2 года назад

I have been watching your videos for a whole now and noticed that you struggle with home-cooked meals. A tip is to search for one-pot meals or sheet pan meals. Pack everything the night before and have it ready to go. Easing into the habit is also very important, to take out the stress and pressure. Try packing your own lunch 2-3 days per week, instead of everyday, to find a balance. Also I want to point out that you should focus your energy on what brings you joy ❤️ If cooking isn't one of them, there are so many healthier pre-cooked meals that you can have as a back-up. Btw, your ring is stunning! Will definitely be checking out the Etsy shop :)

@RachelVinn 2 года назад

thank you so much! I feel a lot of pressure to cook & bring my lunch and I'm currently working on finding my perfect balance like you mentioned

@brittneysarah6910 2 года назад

I just got engaged a couple weeks ago. I got my ring off Etsy too and I didn’t get any diamonds. I’ve never really been a diamond person. I’ve also never understood spending thousands of dollars on a ring. My ring was 600$ and it’s absolutely stunning. I got an opal bc it’s my absolute favorite. I’ve been eyeing opals as engagement rings for 10+ years and I finally got one 😍😍

You're new ring is STUNNING! I completely understand the pressure of a diamond ring in society. It's so stupid isn't it? I ended up getting a plain gold band for my wedding (like you) and never wear my engagement ring because it's big and I do so much with my hands but oh my god the judgement from people who wanted to see my "wedding set" it was so unimportant to me and meant no reflection on our marriage at all but people thought he was a "stinge" 😒 we ended up having a reallysmall budget wedding in a backyard last year because of covid and have absolutely no regrets. Paying off the mortgage is a much higher priority! Sorry for the long comment 😂😂
