Welcome! I'm Einav
Greetings! I'm delighted that you discovered my little piece of online paradise. Join me as we relish in the comforts of our home centered lifestyle, living naturally, from-scratch cooking, and establishing a home that's a true reflection of who we are. Let's celebrate the everyday beauty of life together!
QUARTERLY GOALS
Our weekly schedules can shift with the seasons of the year or our seasons of life, but what’s constant is our drive to work towards our goals. Instead of feeling overwhelmed, try setting quarterly goals. For example, for December to February, my goal is to dive into baking.
I adore baking, but I don’t feel confident enough to bake for family and friends. So, this quarter, I’m taking an online cake-baking course to level up my skills and bake with confidence! 🍰 I’m thinking in enrolling into this school, have you heard about it before? drop your recommendations bellow
WEEKLY HOUSEKEEPING
For the next three months (December through February), while honing my baking skills, I can’t let the house fall apart. So, I’m weaving my hobbies into my schedule. Here’s a sneak peek at what my week might look like:
Sunday: (As we’re Jewish, Sunday is our week’s start)
7:00 AM – Wake up, get ready for the day, and finish up any laundry
10:00 AM – Prep lunch for today and tomorrow, and plan dinner
11:00 AM – Dive into a book, aiming for at least 10 pages
12:00 PM – Lunch
1:00 PM – Plan this week’s baking adventures
2:00 PM – Work from home until 9:00 PM (with a dinner break around 5:30 PM)
9:30 PM – Rewind and go to sleep

Tuesday:

10:00 AM – Prep lunches for at least the next two days 11:00 AM – Deep clean the kitchen, toss out expired items
12:00 PM – Lunch
12:30 PM – Start my online baking course until 4:00 PM
4:00 PM – Start making dinner
5:30 PM – Eat dinner and catch up on TV shows

This way, I keep my home running smoothly while still having a blast learning new skills! 🎂📚🏠
