 Good morning guys, welcome back to another vlog. I haven't vlogged in probably like a week and a half I am so excited to be back vlogging honestly guys I have been super open about how I'm on anxiety meds, and I've been doing that whole thing my emotions have just been like all Over the place and I was filming just like a lot of normal stuff, and then it was my birthday this weekend So I was just trying to relax I think I really needed the weekend off my first birthday since I 16th birthday I haven't vlogged which is crazy, but I did make a little cute Instagram video on my Instagram if you guys haven't checked it out Happy birthday to you, happy birthday to you, happy birthday dear Kenzie, happy birthday to you You're too old to do what you do Thank you I know that's cool We need to turn I know, hi Hi Anyways, today's Tuesday I'm kind of getting my life back in order from the weekend But I'm also kind of taking it slow as I mentioned because I'm just not really feeling myself So I am going to be doing things that make me feel myself. I'm gonna be cooking Oh my gosh guys, Midnight Sun, the new Twilight book came out today If you guys didn't know there's a fifth Twilight book The book originally got leaked at the first few chapters or something years ago So then she never released it I'm very excited, we'll talk about it later My groceries were just delivered So I'm actually gonna show you guys my grocery haul for the week and show you guys what I'm eating for the week So it's like what I eat a week kind of thing With all of my groceries that I get And then I'll take you guys through obviously in vlogs and then on Instagram stories and stuff what I'm making I'm just really focusing on doing things that like put me in a great mood and are good for me And cooking is definitely one of those So I'm excited, I'm back on my cooking grind this week Actually I cook this weekend too Oh my gosh So I kind of went crazy this week I have found that when I make forney recipes it's just too much food And I normally have leftovers and whatever But honestly I just need to cook and I'm very excited So as you guys can see I just kind of make a menu each week And then I've been finding a lot of recipes off the Modern Proper That's my favorite place to look for recipes But I'm gonna make a chicken or wal-dorf salad A green goddess pasta salad Which is really nice because pasta salads last for like three days A salmon pan and then stuffed peppers So here is everything that I got Some broccoli, some grilled chicken for the sandwiches Cheese This is actually perfect because it's a salad topping But see honey roasted walnut pieces We have some carrots, chives, way too many chives This is the problem when I shop on an Instagram Like I will never need this many But it's okay Oh well by chives I might green onions Then I have chives There's supposed to be six peppers So I might have to run up to Trader Joe's Because I need to get the green goddess salad dressing anyways Some green olives, quinoa My favorite yogurt My favorite granola, the purely Elizabeth It's so good You guys can also get it on Thrive Market for cheaper I love Thrive Market, not sponsored Soy sauce, black beans, diced tomatoes I did not tell you the last time I had mayonnaise For the wal-dorf salad I needed mayonnaise So I settled for a stir-frying tent We'll see how that goes Some sesame seeds So this is like a zester slash greeter Snap peas, taco seasoning, lemon juice, sesame oil More olive oil I meant for a small assault But you know it is what it is White balsamic vinegar, honey, salmon, ground turkey The peppers, kale, avocado, garlic, ginger, lemon, bananas Grapes, celery My favorite bread Which is the Dave's thin sliced bread Actually it's like Dave's bread in general It's really good for avocado toast Onions I saw, I think Claudia said this in a vlog recently That like being an adult is realizing that you need onions For every single recipe And that's so true Cucumber, blueberry, and yeah That is what I have for the week I will take you guys along in vlogs As well as on my Instagram stories So follow my Instagram if you guys have not already I'm just going to show you guys this right now Because it's right here But you guys are literally going to die So first off, I received so many Dolly Parton themed presents This year I will show you guys A lot of them are already put away in my office and stuff My friend Kayla got me this Which is so funny As well as this photo of us Almost like 10 years ago But this is like so good You guys are literally going to die Because I think this is the funniest present I've ever received In my entire life As we know I have all these prints up here And in my office And Mark decided he wanted to make me royal too So he literally won't tell me how he did this But guys, is that not the funniest thing You've literally ever seen in your entire life I will never ever ever ever ever ever get over this It is so funny Then I picked up this oil myself Which I really love this It's just a hydrating oil It's really good I'll show you guys some other things That I got upstairs and you guys will see But 10 out of 10 would recommend The ordinary is also so inexpensive I got this on Amazon so it came quicker But oh my gosh I cannot believe It's just literally the best stuff ever Also, Q got me these Jennifer Fisher hoops You guys know I love Jennifer Fisher My favorite hoops ever The bigger ones that I wear every day are Jennifer Fisher But I wanted like smaller ones And these are so cute I also want the massive size But these are definitely the best ones to get Before I get those Jennifer Fisher is always worth the splurge for me They last forever I wear them every day They really hold up You don't even feel like you're wearing earrings

taken the dogs on a really long walk And I worked out and got ready and stuff But I just kind of want to Not put too much pressure on myself So I'm picking out the morning toast But I got a lot of questions about Like what I do when I'm in a funk and stuff So I thought I would just talk about this I've definitely been in a funk And I don't want to be like Too crazy hard on myself To where sometimes with my work schedule Like I do best when I'm just kind of chill And I actually get more done then And then sometimes I do best when Like my last vlog of my day in my life It just depends I
