The past week or so, I have been feeling super stressed out. Mostly, I feel like there aren’t enough hours in the day to do everything I need or want to do. I have been trying to find time to step away from the computer – even for just a few hours everyday. I’m trying to find the balance between everything because I am seriously on the verge of burning out.
I made a conscious choice this past weekend to start taking care of myself. I know it sounds like a stupid thing to even have to think about. For me, it’s been too easy to find excuses as to why I don’t get enough sleep …. why I don’t exercise … why I’m always crabby …. and I’ve had it. Had. It.
While I’m not exactly sure what all of that means yet, I know it means it’s time for some changes …..
Because I only have so many hours in a day and I have been feeling super stressed out, I have needed to rely on my arsenal of quick and easy dinner ideas! Seriously y’all … dinner doesn’t get any faster or easier than this Korean Beef recipe! With just a handful of ingredients and 20 minutes, you can have this amazingly simple, yet delicious dinner on the table!
