The Pile that Grew (And Grew and Grew and Grew)

January 30, 2015 By Dana White | 41 Comments

And this post demonstrates why Hubby no longer worries that I'll run out of Slob Blog Material.   That's the pile. I knew it was there. I knew it had grown. But it wasn't until I needed to deal with it that I grasped its vastness. In my mind, there were boxes in there. Christmas happened, and I did the vast majority of my … [Read more...]

In this podcast, I share one way I attacked clothing clutter in the first year of the blog, and how my understanding of our clothing needs has changed.

Super Fast (And Almost Embarrassingly Easy) Chicken Alfredo Pasta with Spinach

January 29, 2015 By Dana White | 14 Comments

Last week, I told you how I shred twenty-five pounds of cooked chicken breasts in minutes. I promised I'd share some recipes I make with that shredded chicken. This one comes together in minutes. Chicken Alfredo Spinach Pasta is one of my kids' favorites. It's so easy it's embarrassing to post it as a "recipe." Especially since I still … [Read more...]

That Trip to the Trashcan Takes a While Sometimes

January 28, 2015 By Dana White | 8 Comments

Big news in our house: We got a new remote!!! Our DVR died recently. This seems to happen every five years or so, and thankfully the company sends us a new one without a lot of hassle. But as I learned last time, new DVRs don't come with new remotes. Sooooo, the remote we had was about ten years old. The battery cover was long gone. … [Read more...]

A Solution That Works! (Finally!!)

January 27, 2015 By Dana White | 7 Comments

I wrote a post a while back about how I was giving up on how I wanted things to be and just going with how they are. I wanted that basket on the other side of the TV. So it wouldn't run the risk of hanging halfway off the side of the dresser. That never worked. As you can see in the top picture, the pile o' games and movies kept happening on … [Read more...]

How to Cook and Shred Chicken in Bulk (Fast!)

January 23, 2015 By Dana White | 23 Comments

I can't declare loudly enough how much I love pre-cooking chicken and ground beef. If you really want to cook regularly, but feel overwhelmed at the thought, cooking some basic meats ahead of time will change your life. That's kind of dramatic-sounding, but true. Think about it. The biggest time-factor in preparing most meals (even the … [Read more...]

January 22, 2015 By Dana White | 48 Comments

I'm sharing 41 things that I think may or may not have something to do with my slob problem. Absolutely nothing scientific here, but they're just things I wonder as I stumble upon … [Read more...]

So Totally Useful (If I Only Used It)

January 21, 2015 By Dana White | 13 Comments

See that thing? I was confused, too, but as soon as I picked it up I remembered exactly what it was. It's the elastic holder-together-thingy for my exercise mat. Normal people roll the mat, wrap the two loops around the ends of the roll, and have a handy-dandy handle to carry it to their car after a good workout. Those people might even … [Read more...]
