It’s not breaking news to say Costco can be a life-saver. I mean, where else can you buy car tires, a new TV, and a 50-pound bag of sugar all at the same place where you get a hot dog and a soda for $1.50? What a great time to be alive!!
That said, a trip can be horribly overwhelming if you go in without a plan. Also, you might leave wondering, “Was that really a deal?” Here is a list of what we buy at Costco.
Dinner doesn’t have to be difficult. Want me to prove it? How about these 10 meals you can get on the table lickety-split probably using what you’ve already got in your pantry, fridge, and freezer?
It took six years to add an executive chef to our team, but Sean was totally worth the wait! While we pride ourselves for being a supportive workplace for anyone who loves food no matter what their resume says, having Sean on our team has made a good thing even better. This means more great food at a great price for you, and efficient kitchen practices that help us scale our efforts without breaking our staff.
Additionally, we’ve created Sean’s Test Kitchen on our off days to test out new recipes.
When people think of The Real Good Life, they think of fresh, delicious, made-from-scratch meals delivered right to their door. They think of the relief that they don’t have to cook dinner and the excitement of the change of pace from their dinner stand-bys. While this is exactly what we think too, there’s more to us.
Our word of the year is COMMUNITY, and we are living that in full force.
Last week I told you all about what I, as a human, am doing to protect the earth in hopes it inspires you, but this week I’d like to tell you about our eco-friendly business practices here at The Real Good Life.
I attended several sessions of the Women’s Entrepreneur Week last week. I learned a lot, but even more importantly, I met a bunch of Milwaukee women you need to know. The list is extensive, but here are seven you should follow immediately.
When I was invited to sit on a panel for Women’s Entrepreneur Week, I was asked to sum up my business advice into a few words. I thought this was impossible. I mean, have you met/read me?! But one of my favorite food pontificators, Michael Pollan, came to mind and inspired:
Of course, I have paragraphs upon paragraphs of explanation but we didn’t have the opportunity to get into it there, so let’s try it now.
While we would love to be of service for all your meals, we know you need to cook on your own some nights. (Wah wah.) As we ramp up for school to start, and with it, soccer practice, and homework, and let’s not forget your own laundry, sales pitch prep, and OITNB calling your name…, you need dinner on the table fast. First pick is us, second pick is these five dinners from our favorite foodie sites.
Hey guys! I am t-minus days away from vacation and dude, am I ready to check out. This impending trip set me straight to our inspiration for May – Vacation is a state of mind.
Let’s be honest – this week with my toddlers 24/7 will be the furthest thing from relaxing, so I’m setting other vacation goals. Instead, I’m looking forward to getting away from work, laundry, and the daily routine to give me a fresh outlook on life. Sometimes all it takes is pressing pause on the daily grind to give you the strength to jump back in.
So as I may have mentioned one or 100 times, this last Sunday was my birthday. (Yah, birthday!!) To celebrate, I did absolutely nothing productive. I had a whole lot of fun, though!
I slept in late and took a nap. I made a couple different kinds of bread. I hung out with my girls. I almost stayed in PJs most of the day except for a quick run listening to my favorite new podcast. In short, it was glorious!
