Meal organisation

Good morning!

I have a confession to make. I don't always stick to my meal planner. I know...shocking! I shop using Woolworths Online, so I usually get my groceries delivered on a Sunday morning. Sometimes they get it right and sometimes they get it wrong, but so far, so good! I plan and order my shop on Friday afternoons or in the wee hours of Saturday mornings. 

I use a meal planner that sticks to the fridge from Target - It was around $15 or $20. I can't remember exactly. I used to write really elaborate meal plans with me cooking from scratch every night. It just doesn't work. I need a few simple meals that I take out of the fridge & cook (like 'Steak and salad or Chicken Schnitzel & salad). 


 When I am working (I work part time and casually) I cannot face making a meal at the end of the day, all I want to do is veg out on the couch!

I love how there is space down the bottom for 'shopping list' items and the powerful magnets make sure it doesn't move. I find that the meal planning helps with waste. When I don't plan I throw out a lot of food. I know there are things in the fridge, but I'm not exactly sure how they fit together.

This planner has been working well for me. Each week I just tear off a new sheet. It always looks nice and I can see at a glance what we are eating for the week. I plan on sharing this every week!

What do you use for your meal planning? Let me know below!

Chux Magic Wand - Review

Hi di hi!

This past week Woolworths had the new and improved (their words not mine) Chux Magic Wands on sale - half price or maybe better than half price, I can't remember. Because I shop online, the online original price is slightly higher, so better than half price.

I don't know when the sale ends, maybe today? I bought two and took them out of the packaging immediately (as it was our recycling week and I wanted to get as much out of the house as possible!).

I used the Chux wand on my sink. Its a white ceramic sink and it gets really dirty, in-fact even though I scrub and scrub, I can't get it back to the original white colour. Hopefully early next year I'm getting my kitchen renovated so it will be sayonara sink! Anyways, I love cleaning, but I don't love getting cleaning products on my hands, I usually wear gloves. I really loved the larger surface area of this scrubber. It was very sturdy and did a very good job on my yucky sink.  

As you can see I've upgraded my scrubber from the blue one! Flash! So I poured Jif cream over my sink, let it sit for a while then went to town using the Chux scrubber. It did a very good job. I filled the container with water to help wash the Jif away as I scrubbed, then rinsed the whole sink thoroughly with water. Voila! Now my sink is nice and clean. I also read that you can buy different cleaning pads/heads, I'll def be giving a try. I do love a new or improved product!

Have you tried the new Chux scrubber? (Please note these opinions are my own and I paid for both my Chux scrubbers myself).
