Must Have Mondays

Must Have Monday’s – Issue 7

Every other week I post three must have’s in my life – a product, a blogger, and a recipe. Since the majority of my readers are women these three things are things that they can typically use or relate to.

Enjoy this week’s picks!

This week’s recipe is Turkey Meatloaf from Boys Ahoy

This is one of my absolute favorite dinners! I actually contemplate whether my husband is sick of eating it or not sometimes. It’s just simple and it so, so yummy. Total comfort food too! I always find myself scooping some out as I’m putting it away that night. I also feel like it’s a simple and fancy enough meal that it’s something I’d trust myself making if we company over (because if you know anything about me it’s that I’m not the best when it comes to cooking). This meal is really yummy with the potatoes shown, but I also pair it with roasted carrots, which is also delicious.

This week’s blogger is Jennifer Brown of Jen & Juiceboxes

This girl’s blog (and her in general) just make me happy! She has an infectious smile and a way with her words that has me clicking through blog post after blog post. She is as real as they come and you immediately relate with her, especially if you’re a mother. She is fashionable and funny, as well! Her blog is beautiful and her posts are clearly written from the heart, even when it’s a product review. Like many bloggers, Jen does product reviews, but unlike many bloggers you can tell she is both particular with who she works with and also doesn’t let that aspect of blogging take over. She stays true to who she is and why she started her blog and as a fellow blogger she has my utmost respect for that.

This week’s product is Mother Load Bags

Oh my goodness! My need for organization, especially when we are on the go, had me loving these bags the second I laid eyes on them! They are color coded, machine washable, and have a mesh backing so that you can see inside without having to take to go digging through it. It’s something easy to have packed and ready for running errands or even a night away – whether you need one bag or all five! And they also ALL come with attachable wristlets so if it is only one you’re grabbing you can throw it on your wrist and go! That alone makes me love these bags – if you’re a mama, any hands free product is win!

I really can’t say enough about how much I love these bags. They were each so carefully and thoughtfully created: The bag for diapers comes with a changing pad, the bag for snacks has sectionals in it and the bag for soiled clothes is water proof!
