Keeping it Real...One Sister's JourneyWelcome to my blog! No matter how you found this, God knew you'd be here today. May you absorb the message He has for you through my writing, photos, and more. I enjoy sharing hope to encourage others.
In 2011 it was through the written word, today I've learned there is more to me than just writing and speaking. I use my love of cooking with sharing and it's renewed an energy and hope within me. I look forward to sharing this with you here. Thanks for stopping by! Be sure to leave a comment on the blog or recipe that speaks to you. God is at work in all you and I each do, it's up to us to share this with others. |
 Good afternoon! Today we are talking about time and time management on our weekly T.O.P.'s Tuesday post. I've considered myself an organized, prepared, and on-time person yet in the past year...not so much! I joined Epicure as a consultant in July 2020 and it has changed our lives for the better. We are eating better and having fun sharing healthier seasonings, time saving cookware, and the benefits of cooking at home with so many people. It's a blessing for sure. I wasn't this busy when the school year started yet as the calendars turned, my business started to grow and the opportunity to reach more people along with it. This is exciting and I enjoy every moment. With this being said, I hope to continue to grow and share so this summer is VERY purposed and disciplined. My goal is to have healthy habits, time-management, and work/writing/Epicure balanced. A few things I've done and I am doing to accomplish this goal: 1) Using a 15 month Calendar for planning purposes 2) Using a Monthly Planner designed for someone who works and is in direct sales 3) Power Hour - at least 5x a week (1 hour of uninterrupted work time via Zoom with others - cameras on, sound muted - only unmute to ask for help) 4) Exercise 4 - 5 times a week at the gym 5) Using the Planner EVERY DAY - check the night before, create my list, and get it done the next day! 6) 7 - 8 hours of sleep each night 7) Getting up early 8) Doing something outside and away from the house EVERY DAY 9) Keeping the house picked up so it doesn't get away from me 10) Reading at least 15 minutes a day Am I achieving these every day? Nope Do I start each new day driven to accomplish them? YES Will I have it mastered by the time school starts? Yes and No Yes - I'll have heathier routines and balance for a summer schedule No - I'll need to tweek and modify these routines a little yet they will be a priority the first 2 weeks of school! I share this with you because I have goals with my writing, speaking, blogging, podcasting, and to grow my Epicure business. In order to do this, I must take care of my self ad dedicate time to self-care as much as I do the things I'm passionate about. You need to to do the same thing? Are you?

TIP
I used an empty Lemon Dilly container, removed the label,
and put 2 packages
of the Sweet Garlic Chicken in it.
I cut the recipe out and used mailing tape to attach it to the jar.

I enjoy quotes and poems. They are often short, concise, and make you think. Of course there are longer poems and less than appealing quotes BUT this is the beauty of writing. For me, the tidbit and morsel offered through a quote, haiku, or short poem make me think. I like to nugget and to reflect, ponder, and process the deeper meaning.
The best part, the meaning I take away may not be the author's intention yet it's the way I internalized and personalized it. As an English and writing major in college, many a professor told me "That is not what the poet/author meant." It irritated me, and still does because only the author knows what they meant.
As individuals with different pasts, education levels, and locations, we can read the same passage and take away something totally different. I only had one professor in four years who challenged us to read the 3 1/2 inch thick literature text book and write papers about different passages, poems, and essays from our perspective and what we believe the author was telling us. After we submitted our assignments, he would teach and share what scholars believe the true meaning and purpose was. There would be some in the class who said, "Yes, I got it." and others, like me, who thought, "Missed that by 100 yards." BUT the professor required we provide supporting information of WHY we interpreted the passage the way we did.
This is the best part of the lesson, after his lesson, we had the option to take our paper back and rewrite it after the day's lesson. I enjoyed this method of teaching and if I ever opt to be an adjunct professor, I'd mirror his methods because he didn't just teach us about literature, he encouraged us to think, challenge the norms, and offered us the opportunity to change our minds. Isn't this what we are called to do? To think for ourselves, learn new information and process it, then mold it into a beneficial piece of knowledge to help us be better?
Today's quote resonated with me, I won't share why but instead, I encourage you to think about it for a bit. Read it aloud. Write it down a few times. Read it aloud again. What speaks to you? Where do you find your thoughts traveling? How does this quote speak to you?

Today's meal share is actually a healthy snack and fresh from the garden. We, Dad and I, had our first cucumbers for the 2021 garden. Often I'll just wipe the cucumber on my shirt and take a bite but with the first harvest, we always slice them and soak them in a vinegar and oil mx.
Dad has his special recipe and this year we added our Epicure seasonings. There are multiple bowls on the counter: Dad's secret mix, Epicure's Herb & Garlic, and Epicure's Lemon Dilly. Upon first taste, the Lemon Dilly was my favorite but after they sat, I think the Herb and Garlic is better. Who knows, tomorrow I might like the latter. Either way, there are three varieties of deliciousness on the counter and thanks to the ease of Epicure's 4-in-1 Mandoline, the slices are uniform and cut in seconds.
Check out the live demo I did on my Facebook page, "Keeping it Real Cooking with Lisa". Have a fun and safe weekend everyone! Make memories and cherish them!

This is a photo from a couple years ago and as I went through old pics, this one still stopped my scroll. The minimal breeze off Lake Ontario cooled the humid sweat from my skin as I circled the nest for the right picture. Dad watched from the hill behind the garage.
As I walked towards Dad looking at my camera I smiled. It wasn't the photos that made me smile, it was my dad's voice calling to me. "Did you get a good one?" I remembering looking up and enjoying his smile. I was grateful and this feeling returns each time I see this photo. Life truly is about savoring the moments and listening when Dad calls because he "sees a blog" waiting for me.
Here's the deal, Dad is the one who called me after mowing his lawn to let me know there was a blog waiting for me and the sun was "just right". I've been blogging since 2011 and there have been many a blog that were birthed from one of my father's phone calls. I pray there are years of phone calls from my dad when he sees a blog waiting for me after mowing the lawn, checking the garden, or taking the dog out.
There is a lot of good in the world when we have a positive outlook and our eyes open to see all that is around us. Choose the positive and joy, it's worth it.

Do you recognize the "blogs" waiting for you to write?
Last week I shared an upcoming release, a monthly planner to organize your family, directly sales needs, and even your meal planning. This 15-month calendar is an inch smaller than the planner so you can slide it in and bring it with you.
The release date is yet to be set but it is in the near future. After reviewing the first proof and then the second of the planner I realized I still need to be able to look, schedule, and plan months in advance. I toyed with the idea of changing the planner but then it would be thick and bulky to carry so I made it a separate entity. I look forward to sharing more information in the near future so you can add it to your tools for success.
More to come...who knows, maybe I'll blog on an off day if it releases earlier than expected, le me know in the comments if you look forward to the planner & calendar

Last week I did a live cooking demo and prepared a variety of burgers using Epicure's seasonings. They smelled great. In about a half an hour, I made beef, chicken, and salmon burgers. We didn't eat them that night but froze them for when our company is here in a couple weeks.
One of the many benefits of Epicure is the amount of time you save in the kitchen and it works for tonight's dinner or to prep for next week or future weeks. If you like salmon burgers, the West Coast Burger seasoning is for you. Epicure also has a Salmon rub which is fabulous. To learn about some of the burger seasonings you need for your BBQ season, read on. You can also get them all in one collection by clicking here!

The last day of school is tomorrow! It is a bittersweet day. I will miss the students and my work family over the summer yet I'm equally excited for more time with my family. Summer is a time to refresh, relax, and catch our breath. What are you summer plans while school is on vacation?
I look forward to spending time with my work buddies, our dog and cat. This week I'm organizing, prioritizing, and list making. The goal is to make sure everything that NEEDS to be done, I HOPE to get done, and DREAM to accomplish are all written down. This is how I end the school year and move into summer vacation. Regardless of the season, or the reason, things are smoother and easier when you have a plan and goals.
This year I am not teaching summer school. Instead, I am dedicating my time and energy into solidifying, strengthening, and building my Epicure team. You can look forward to at least a couple releases in the near future that I created to organize my home and business. I'm releasing them in hopes they might help another direct sales representative manage and succeed.
No worries, the blogs won't be all business this summer. The Savory Saturday blogs will continue because I enjoy sharing (some) meals I've made during the week. I have a few writing projects I hope to 1) complete 2) Outline or 3) Draft. These will be shared and teased out in the T.O.P.'s Tuesday blogs. Thursdays, are open for photos and to share God's creation around me. These are some of my favorites blogs to write.
Thank you for following the blog, your prayers, and support!

Who is your side-kick when working at home?
As I increase the numbers of plates spinning at one time, I tried an array of organization strategies. As I drafted my ideas on paper, tried it for a week or two, and then made changes. Weeks of trial and error have developed into this planner. This is a work in progress. It will release in the near future.

48 hours since our last blog, and guess what? I already made some changes to the manuscript of my new release! Yup, woke up this morning with a couple ideas, and noticed another "oops".
The good news, I hadn't clicked to order my second round of proofs so I can cancel those. Once the publisher ends the current revisions in the system, I can upload the PDF with the corrections and updates.
In addition to these, I had the idea to create a supplemental to partner with this resource too. So as I sit at the VA hospital today with my Dad for appointments, I'll work on this in hopes of releasing both at the same time. The Holy Spirit is moving and it is fun!
Have a great Thursday everyone!

How has the Holy Spirit Inspired You lately?
Hello! How are you this week? I have exciting news to share with you, I have a new book releasing in the near future.
I continue to enjoy being an Epicure Consultant and manage the other commitments in my life. In order to keep home, school, work, Epicure, and relaxation organized, I NEED a system.
Prior to school starting, I didn't have a system yet because my days and evenings weren't jam packed so I kicked off my business with 100% of my attention and energy. As the school year progressed I attended Zoom trainings, researched and tried different systems to grow my Epicure business and stay organized. Out of all these trial and errors, I started to figure out what works for me, and what doesn't.
I dedicated time to creating a system to get organized, help with meal planning, and grow my business...simultaneously. This book, Planning for Success: Keeping it Real, offers you a variety of organization tools in one place. The first proof arrived Saturday and it was fun to check it out. I carried it with me and checked it a few times before sitting down to make notes and markings.
The second draft will be off to the editor this week and once the next proof arrives, I'll be ready to share more about this new release. If you are looking to step up your meal planning, organize your dates, and grow your direct sales business, this is something you should try. Until next week, keep up the hard work!

Personal Goals for the Summer
Welcome back! How did you do? Do you have some goals set for the summer and beyond? As promise I'm sharing my summer goals with you. This week I'll share my personal health and spiritual goals with you all. I sat down and made a general list to start and am working on filling in the specifics.
Next week I'll share my writing goals for the summer. I look forward to hearing from you and what your goals are. Let's hold each other accountable.
PERSONAL HEALTH GOALS
*Drop a pant/dress size by first day of school
*Exercise/weights at gym 3x week
*Walk/run outside 5x week
PERSONAL SPIRITUAL GOALS
*Read my Bible for at least 15 minutes a day
*Journal at least 10 - 15 minutes a day
*Study my Bible for at least 10 – 15 minutes a day

Hello Everyone! I've shared recipes and my new venture as an Epicure Independent Consultant. In hopes of reaching more people, I plan to share some of the meals made during the week each Saturday. I include pictures of my meals, and even a how-to-video at times. You'll also have a link to the recipe (if I use one, lol), and links to the seasonings used for easy ordering.
In addition to adding these 100% gluten and nut free products to our home, I do virtual parties via Facebook and Zoom so you can EARN FREE and half-price products!
