Adorning in April #27: Sunday Checklist

Hello all, welcome back to Adorn Beauty. 

Another week is over and done, and as always I use my Sundays to rest, relax and prepare for the week ahead. 

Here are some of the things that are in store for me in the coming week, plus a few items I ticked off today in preparation for a brand new week! 

Bondi Sands Tan - 

I absolutely love this stuff, and if I'm on top of things (aka not being lazy) I will tan myself once a fortnight. I wrote a whole blog post about my love obsession for this tan that you can read HERE!

Lorna Jane Diary - 

By far one of my best purchases for this year, the Lorna Jane diary is perfect for me! I use it for my personal life 

(I have a separate one for work that I leave at work in attempt to create that work/life balance) and I'll go through each Sunday and map out my week with timings of things, what workouts I'm going to do, social events etc. Lifesaver!

Lime - 

Might look like a lemon but its actually a lime, and may seem strange to have it in my Sunday checklist but I actually have half a lime everyday as a part of my morning metabolism drink to get me going for the day, I absolutely love it! If your interested in knowing more, its a part of the Tone It Up Nutrition Plan - HERE!

Chanel Lipstick - 

I am a big lover of makeup and there are often days where I will base my whole outfit on a makeup item, so one day this week I want to wear my beloved Chanel Lipstick

Organic Black Bean Spaghetti -

As you will know if you read THIS POST  I like to prep my meals for the week on Sundays. This week I am making up some spaghetti using this organic black bean I found at my local health food store, I will have to let you know if it is any good!

And there we have it, a few of the things making their way onto my Checklist / To dos / Must haves in preparation for the week ahead. 

What do you do to prepare?

Adorning in April #6: Sunday Prep-day

Happy Sunday all! 

Today I wanted to show you a snippet into my Sunday routine; meal prep!

I do this every Sunday, I make all my lunches for the week, prepare my bombshell spells (metabolism boosting drink for first thing in the morning) and some snacks to have at work as well. I honestly find if I can set aside 2 or so hours each Sunday to make the healthy choices for the week and prepare them; then I have a much smoother week. I don't have to worry about making my lunches and snacks everyday which in turn gives me more time to relax in the evenings, I have the food there ready to go that is full of vitamins and minerals; and its so much easier to say no to other food when you know the time you've spent preparing for success! 

~

Each week I change it up so I don't get board, and I don't find that eating the same lunch 5 days in a row as a bother at all. 

This week I decided to go with chicken and salad with some halloumi too! 

What you see here is:

A base of Spinach, Rocket and Cabbage

Celery

Cucumber

Snow Peas

Carrot

Sprouts 

Whilst I was cutting up all the salad doings I had some chicken marinating in honey, soy sauce and pepper and some halloumi soaking in lemon juice. 

~

After making up all the salads I then cooked up the chicken and the halloumi (in separate pans). 

I then allowed them to cool and sliced them all up. 

Here is the finished product for tomorrow! 

~

I have cut up all the other chicken pieces and halloumi and wrapped them individually in some cling wrap for each day so that they won't go off or make the salad soggy! 

~

I have also made some almond cookies from the Whole Pantry App; picture HERE! to have for morning tea and my other snacks for work will be fresh fruit! 

~

Do you meal prep? If yes what have you made? I love getting new ideas for lunches each week to avoid board-em! 

xoxo

Here is to a great week ahead!
