Our nomadic life is coming to an end! August 23rd is move in day. The week is going to be full of cleaning, painting, and moving in so I’m preparing now.
I know the biggest time and money suck tends to be meals when we move but I also know we have a laundry list of things we will need to spend our money on, so I am meal planning now and prepping ahead with freezer meals to save on time stress, and the budget. Instead of dinner costing us $20-$40 each night, it will cost us $5-$7 and so much less time.
