To make your potato stamps, wash your potatoes off and then cut them in half (either long ways or short ways, depends on how big your cookie cutters are). To make different shaped stamps take a cookie cutter and push it into the flat side of the potato. Once the cookie cutter is wedged inside, take a sharp knife and slice it into the potato until it touches the cookie cutter. Slowly take your knife and cut all the way around the cookie-cutter shape, and remove the excess potato.

After three rounds of having a baby, I have figured out what is essential to pack to welcome a baby into the world and survive the fun of postpartum. The general rule is if you used it while at the hospital, it’s yours. So when you start to pack up to head home, be sure to take anything that you used that isn’t nailed down 🙂 You can take the diapers that you didn’t use, the pads and gels, the water bottles, anything! I’d love to know what you find essential to taking to the hospital to have a baby!

If you are wondering how to pay off debt and/or looking to improve your spending and set yourself on a path to financial success, a financial fast might be a good idea for you. For example, if seeing influencers and ads on Instagram makes you want to spend with reckless abandon, consider deleting the app for a few weeks or setting up a time limit to lessen your doom scrolling. There are several different budgeting methods, including the 50/30/20 rule, which suggests putting 50% toward what you need, 30% toward what you want, and 20% toward savings and debt repayment, and the envelope system, which has you set aside cash in different envelopes by category and allows you only to spend what’s in each envelope. Take time to focus on the things you really need to spend money on, like groceries and rent, and the things you could probably give up for a while, like fancy dinners out and extra-foam lattes.

These powerful plants contain special compounds that can naturally help regulate our hormones and metabolism, but one of the most important benefits of adaptogens is the way they help our body adapt to stress and protect us from the damage it can cause on a cellular level. In a two-month randomized, double-blind study of 60 participants with mild stress, researchers found that those adults who were given a 240 mg of full-spectrum extract of ashwagandha root experienced a significant reduction of stress, anxiety and cortisol levels after two months as compared to the placebo group. In fact, KSM-66 Ashwagandha® has been clinically proven to help reduce stress, anxiety, cortisol levels, and stress-related food cravings while helping to improve memory and cognitive function. Other vitamins included like Vitamin D can help with mood and immunity, while antioxidant-acting vitamins like A, C, and E can reduce damage caused by free radicals, which can be high during times of stress.

I had to add these Bunny Ears to Brooklyn’s basket! I always add books to Brooklyn’s Easter Basket, and I thought these books were two great options. – Target has many options for sidewalk chalk (this Egg-Shaped Chalk is pretty cute); I opted for the 60 piece chalk set that can last us a while! I decided that instead of a stuffed bunny, I would get her this cute stuffed Lab wearing bunny ears this year.
