DAILY LOOKS: SWEATER VEST + CONVERSE, + DAILY REMINDERS

May 16, 2022daily looks, style + outfits

Happy Monday! Here’s a little cheat sheet for anytime you’re feeling discouraged or stuck in your feelings this week (or anytime!). OVERTHINKING -> write, ANXIOUS -> pray, OVERWHELMED -> move your body, FRUSTRATED -> recite scripture/affirmations, TIRED -> rest/read (not including screens although it’s hard to resist!).

What would you add?

MY OUTFIT:

  • Sweater vest – old, but love these one, two, three, four (on sale)
  • Bralette
  • Jeans – or here! (never bought a pair of agolde jeans or shorts that I didn’t end up loving and wearing constantly for YEARS)
  • Converse – size down 1/2
  • Bracelets – one, two
  • Purse (found on sale at the rack!)

POPPY’S OUTFIT:

  • Tee (on sale – more adorable graphic tees here)
  • Leggings
  • Sneakers (more color options here)

Want to know the scripture I repeat in my head (when I remember) anytime I’m utterly exhausted from parenting or adulting and feel that resentment bubble up or can’t imagine having to do another dish, pick up another toy, fold another pair of socks, or drive a kid to one more commitment? “Work hard and cheerfully at all you do, just as though you were working for the Lord…” – Colossians 3:23-24

I LOVE a good quote or saying but NOTHING has the ability to truly change my heart or mind like scripture. It is living and active and sharper than any double edged sword and I’m so damn thankful for it.

xx, Rae

Perfection is overrated unless your talking about Perfection is overrated unless your talking about waffles 🧇 and you know we take waffles seriously around here since we named our dog after them! Recipe is below to save for later or you can comment WAFFLES and I’ll send the recipe straight to your DMs! 

CRISP & FLUFFY HOMEMADE WAFFLE RECIPE

YOU’LL NEED:
2 cups flour
1 tablespoon baking powder
2 tablespoons sugar
2 eggs (divide egg and yoke)
1-2/3 cup whole milk
1/3 cup butter, melted
2 teaspoons vanilla extract
TOPPING IDEAS: butter, maple syrup, whipped cream, *sprinkles, peanut butter, jam, *cacao nibs, chocolate chips, powdered sugar, berries, bananas, cinnamon, sliced peaches, fried or scrambled egg, etc.

HERE’S HOW:
Preheat your waffle iron and melt butter over low, if using stovetop.
In a large bowl, combine all dry ingredients: flour, baking soda, baking powder, and sugar. Whisk together.
Divide the egg yolk and whites into two separate medium sized bowls.
Add the milk, butter, and vanilla extract to the yolk bowl and mix to combine.
With a hand or stand mixer, beat the egg whites on medium-high until stiff peaks form. Should only take a couple minutes and makes the waffles so fluffy!
Pour yolk and milk mixture into the dry ingredients and stir or whisk until combined, being careful not to over-mix. Add the egg whites and fold them into the batter gently.
Heat oven to 250-275 degrees to keep cooked waffles warm and crisp. Lightly grease waffle iron (I like to brush on a little butter). Use a measuring cup to pour batter onto waffle iron, until wells are almost covered. Close the iron and cook for about 4 minutes or until golden brown. (Tip: This is a great time to prep toppings or tidy up the kitchen. If you’re like me though, be sure to set a timer!)
Place cooked waffles in a single layer, directly on rack in oven. When ready, top and serve!
