Disclosure: This post is brought to you in collaboration with Boston Market, all opinions are my own.

With Thanksgiving just a couple of days away you might be scrambling. Things to prep and cook and maybe even your tablescape isn’t complete yet either. Stress levels are on high but they don’t have to be.
This year, thankfully, I don’t have to prepare the entire thanksgiving meal. My parents are hosting this year and it’s my job to bring a side dish. With a house to run and 3 kids to take care of I don’t have all the time in the world. So I decided to cut some corners with Boston Market.

I’m not alone though, Boston Market served more than 1 million people last Thanksgiving, and expect to serve more than 1 million again this year!

To help out those you want a little help this Thanksgiving Boston Market keeps its doors open for select hours on Thanksgiving day. You never know what you might have forgotten to put on your menu so you can stop in and let Boston Market cater your holiday meal.

If you plan to dine-in Boston Market offers you the choice of roasted turkey breast or half signature rotisserie chicken with two home-style sides, freshly baked cornbread and a slice of apple or pumpkin pie for just $11.99. If you order ahead for Thanksgiving or even your Christmas meal you can get a whole roasted turkey meal with all the fixins’ for 12 people for only $99.99!!

Now what was I going to do about my side dish? Well this year Boston Market has teamed up with Women’s Basket Hall of Fame star Lisa Leslie to provide some holiday tips and recipes using Boston Market sides as the main ingredient.

Boston Market’s items are prepared using fresh, high-quality ingredients so I knew I was already getting a great tasting product but how could I tweak something to make it more “home-made”? We LOVE mac & cheese and since we will have a lot of kids at Thanksgiving I made some easy and quick adjustments.

Garlic and Bacon Mac & Cheese

Instagram post 2185715538955744876_8677249 Parenting a teen is hard, you guys. (ad) One thing I’ve FINALLY figured out this year was how she would be able to go to college. It wasn’t always easy for us... still isn’t but I knew I wanted to make college a priority for my kids. The hard part was figuring out how. @myfloridaprepaid has been the answer I’m looking for. Over on the blog I’m sharing how it has helped us make the best financial choice for our kids, especially when one is already in high school. https://bit.ly/2oR8dNG

Instagram post 2063941033397357866_8677249 Relaxation level was at a 10. We stayed at “𝐓𝐡𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐥𝐞” - a @magicalhomes (search “RVH_385M on their website) this past week and we definitely felt like kings & queens.⁣

I don’t want to vacation any other way and you shouldn’t either. When you come to Orlando, skip the theme park hotels and get yourself a fully stocked Magical Vacation Home! You’ll thank me later! 😉⁣

I make this #MermaidBowl almost daily but shhh there’s a secret ingredient! Scroll to see!⁣
⁣
Summer temps have already hit Florida, so I do everything I can to make sure my family is staying hydrated. What is better is when the drinks I give them are plant-powered hydration like in @v8juice V8 +HYDRATE (which I found at Walmart). 𝐕𝟖 +𝐇𝐘𝐃𝐑𝐀𝐓𝐄 has 1 serving of vegetables, only 45 calories, no sugar added, no artificial sweeteners, Non-GMO and gluten free.⁣
⁣
1 cup frozen mango⁣
1 cup frozen strawberries⁣
1 cup frozen pineapple⁣
1 can V8 +HYDRATE Strawberry Cucumber.⁣
To get the beautiful purple color I mixed in 1 small spoonful of blue spirulina powder.⁣
Consistency will be thick, almost like ice cream. ⁣

We are ready for all the pool and water park fun! Stress-free summers are where it’s at. ⁣
⁣
One thing that helps me be stress free is knowing my kids are all set for college with their @myfloridaprepaid accounts. If saving a set amount isn’t for you, I’m so excited to tell you that there’s another way!⁣
⁣
𝐅𝐥𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐝𝐚 𝐏𝐫𝐞𝐩𝐚𝐢𝐝 also has a 𝟻𝟸𝟿 𝘚𝘢𝘷𝘪𝘯𝘨𝘴 𝘗𝘭𝘢𝘯! That means you can save for college but on your own time with however much you can afford. I’m spilling all the beans on this great plan that CAN also be added to an existing college plan or on its own.⁣

Instagram post 2049474142381770495_8677249 Can it be the weekend yet? I can’t believe it’s only Wednesday. 😱

With temps heating up quicker than ever I know I need to #JustWearTheSuit while my kiddos are around. I quickly took off this coverup and got in the water with them. I still felt like people were staring at me but I didn’t let that show.
What helps you get past your insecurities especially when you don’t feel as confident like being at the pool or beach in a swimsuit?
