Would love you salmon recipe Melanie!
Let me know if you want my Salmon recipe!! 🐟
Love this! “Whose socks are on the chandelier?!” 😅 Some of those things are so hard to do and I totally get it! I’m still constantly letting go of what I think other people think of us. 🤍
❤️❤️
The peace and love you have with your family is the most important thing. You don't anyone else's approval. Kudos to you!
Love this❤️🥰
Love this! And I don’t fold my kids’ clothes either 😊
That makes me feel so much better!! 😂❤️❤️
Thank you for sharing! New subscriber from NE 💕💕💕
Yay so happy you’re here🥰! Xox
This is exactly what I’m looking for! Thank you! You look phenomenal too;)
Yay!! You’re the sweetest 😘
Thanks for sharing your meal plan! Keep it up!
You are so welcome!🤗
What do you find is the best time of day to workout? I also have 4 kids, work full time and also have a part time job. I struggle with finding the time to get a workout in. It has been far too long since I've lasted worked out and its something I'm looking at doing for myself again. 😊
Hey Kayla! Wow you are super busy!! 4 kids and a full-time AND part-time job? GIRL! No wonder it is hard to find time to work out. For me, I am home most days so I am flexible and usually workout mid-morning. I like to workout when I have the most energy (so it's more enjoyable). With a full-time job, you may need to work out before the kids wake up (if you can!). Most importantly, you really want to choose a time that is realistic and maintainable long-term and that works for your schedule. Even a 30-minute workout a few times a week can make a difference! I wish you all the best on your new fitness journey!
I don’t like coffee lol, but I love your hair 💞
Let me know some of the things you do that help you reset and refresh 🌸☀️😀
I love her straight forward you were. A lot of people aren’t so clear about what happens but I felt like you didn’t hold back. Thank you for that. Short, truthful and sweet.
Awe this is so kind. Thank you so much. I am all about giving the facts (in hopefully the nicest way possible - haha! 😂). Your comment made my day! Thanks Elizabeth!
Great tip!
If you heat up the tortilla for a little bit it’s so much better 😊
Thanks I will definitely try that!
Thanks for this Mel! I was at Costco yesterday - I wish I saw those wraps. Are they good?
Yes, I really like them!! They do fall apart easier than regular wraps so go easy on the wet ingredients 😂.
@@Melaniefaris Okay good to know! lol

you can use vinegar instead of lemon it is easier
Thanks for the tip! I have also used vinegar before… but I find the lemon works better and gets my pots sparkling clean with less scrubbing than the vinegar! 🍋🍋😊 however, if I don’t have lemons on hand - I definitely would substitute with vinegar 😊!
What was the you tube program you started off doing for weight training?
The program I followed was from Caroline Girvan. I really like her Iron Series workouts, but she has many free ones to choose from. Warning, ⚠️ some are pretty intense 😬😅.

Great work out Mel!!
