Must Have Mondays – Issue 16
I feel like I haven’t posted in forever, especially since it hasn’t been since January, but really I only missed one week. Due to other posts I had going on live and the blogiversary countdown (And Then Life just turned ONE! Yay!) I was promoting on social media, I decided to push Must Have Mondays back a week…so here we are!
If this is your first time checking out this series, I hope you enjoy! It’s a bi-weekly series where I feature a blogger, recipe, and product that I am LOVING!!!! I hope you fall in love with everything (or at least something) this week! 😉
This week’s recipe: Foil Baked Salmon by Primavera Kitchen

This recipe is one of my faves ever! And aside from how tasty it is, I’m just going to be painstakingly honest and say that it’s also because there is practically no clean up! (You guys already know I’m the worst housewife ever haha). In all seriousness though, I was very hesitant to try this recipe because I thought something would be mushy or undercooked or the salmon would just taste like asparagus or the asparagus would just taste like salmon but NOPE! It was so, so yummy! Everything is perfectly cooked and so delicious! It also looks kinda fancy (you know I love that!) so I take it out of the foil and lay it out all nice on the plate to make it look like I really know what I’m doing in the kitchen! Quick and easy dinner, with quick and easy clean up! Enjoy!!!
This week’s blogger: Lindsay of Lindsay’s Sweet World

Honestly, I started following this gal almost a year ago on Instragram. I loved her page, it’s simple and seems effortless. I lost touch with her page a bit, and recently rediscovered it and finally visited her blog. Quite frankly, I’m embarrassed it took me so long to check it out, but I’m so glad I did. I find myself visiting her blog often now because it makes me HAPPY. I love all her posts; they are just so sweet, and like her Instagram page, they seem effortless and simple. Her love for her family and life itself ooze out of her posts. She blogs about her home, fashion, and has a bunch of adorable DIY projects! You’ll absolutely love her!
This week’s product: CityBucket by Choopie
I received this product in exchange for an honest review. All thoughts & opinions are 100% my own.
My husband can even vouch for this one!!!! The first time I used this was on a family walk over the weekend and I literally kept saying, “oh my gosh, I love this!” “I can’t believe how much stuff this holds!” “And look how cute it is!” Hahah But seriously this thing is awesome!!! I overpack any and everytime I go somewhere, even if it’s just for a trip to the park. I wish I was kidding, but I always like to be overly prepared. I bring so much stuff just when we go to the park that I literally have to bring my diaper bag and then I keep pulling it out of the basket underneath and my daughter’s jacket falls in the mud. It’s not pretty y’all! Well with Choopie’s CityBucket it holds every single thing I normally bring. And since it straps to the stroller it leaves the bottom basket open for my daughter’s jacket and whatnot. And if pink bows aren’t your thing, they have a variety of other {SUPER CUTE} designs available.
(And honestly, it could have fit more than this! I ran out of things that I HAD to bring!)
Thanks for stopping by! Have a great week!

Yes, I totally need more storage when I am out walking with the kiddos in the stroller too, why don’t strollers come with better storage? I hate just throwing everything into the bottom basket, ugh.

Right?! No organization (and never enough room) and that open space of a basket. And extra points for being able to keep the thing on there when I fold up the stroller!

I’m sold on everything in your post, haha! That recipe looks so good and I am all about recipes that look like they took forever or tons of skill but don’t. 😉 I’m definitely going to check out Lindsay’s blog too. And that little stroller bucket looks exactly like something I’d buy. I always bring more than I need and there’s never enough room, haha.

The recipe looks awesome and I’m all for ones that make it look like I know what I’m doing, haha. And that’s such a near basket for the stroller! I have a feeling I’ll probably be thay way too when I have little ones.
