Nooch Pop – If you follow me over on Instagram you probably saw this one coming. I happened to buy a bag of this a few weeks ago when it was on sale and I have been hooked ever since. I’m talking going back to the store and buying every flavour they had, and keeping a healthy-sized supply in my pantry. Based on what I’ve tried, the original Cheesy is still my favourite.

Meal Planner – I fell victim to watching an Instagram reel for this one and as soon as I saw it I immediately ordered it. Not only is it such a cute fun addition to my weekly planning reels, but I also love how organized it has kept me. Writing out a weekly meal plan has helped me stick to a better grocery budget every week, and grocery shop less. If you know me, you know I will do everything I can to avoid wasting food, and I find that by filling out the meal plan with what I already have at the beginning of the week I’m able to get everything used up and not overbuy for the rest of the week.

Home Gym – This one is very exciting for me. We are very lucky to have an extra room in our house that I always dreamed of turning into a gym and I am finally making my dreams a reality. I got a treadmill back in November, but the room has so run-down looking and was so filled with junk after making it a dumping room for the past couple of years. While it isn’t completely perfect yet, throughout April I painted the whole room and have been doing lots of cleaning and organizing and I am so excited with how it is looking. My DIY projects in this room are almost done, but if you want to keep following along with the DIY’s our guest room is getting a makeover next.

The Last Thing He Told Me – I read this book at the end of 2022 and simply could not put it down. I was a bit nervous to start watching the show because I cannot handle creepy things at all but y’all let me tell you this show is SO GOOD. They are releasing episodes weekly and I swear if that wasn’t the case I would have had it binged the first night. I highly recommend this show!!

Nikki Lane – One of the fun memories from the month was a very last-minute trip down to Seattle for my dad’s birthday, I’m talking about planning the trip 36 hours before I left last minute. For my dad’s birthday we were going to see Nikki Lane at the Tractor Tavern and it was SO MUCH FUN. I listened to her the entire drive down and then seeing her live got me hooked. My current favourite song on her new album is Good Enough, I have had it playing on repeat. It was such a good show that I got very close to trying to get last-minute tickets to go to Stage Coach. If she’s playing near you I would highly recommend checking her out.
