I know that summer will be busy in its own way, but I'm really hoping to accomplish these (obviously... that's why I'm writing about it).
1. Transition my blog from Blogger to Wordpress
This semester in my Web Communication I've been working in Wordpress to create a website. I'm super proud of it and I've learned a lot about Wordpress. While I've loved using this platform, the options are so limited. Two summers ago I redesigned my website using an Etsy template, but now I'm ready to use a template that's more "me".

I'm kind of terrified. I have almost 5 years of content that I have to back up onto an external hard drive, and the thought of losing everything I have written sends me into a panic. I'm going to make this transition on a day where I can sit down and do nothing but changing from Blogger to Wordpress (*so wish me luck* also if you have done this before let me know because I'm sure I'll need your help).
2. Make a cookbook
So here's the deal, I am great at baking but I really haven't experimented with cooking. I really love making breakfast but I usually eat the same 2-3 things on a rotation. When it comes to lunch I basically only eat hummus with chips and carrots, and dinner is either at the dining hall, getting pizza, or going out to eat. I'll have a lot more space in my kitchen at home, and while my internship will take up a majority of my day, I'll still have most evenings and weekends to work on cooking. My hope is that I'll take pictures to document the food and write the successful recipes into a Google Doc which I can then stylize later on to make a "cookbook" for my fall semester at college. I really want to focus on eating whole foods. My "recipes" will be simple and not use too many ingredients. If this ends up happening, I'll definitely share with you all.
3. Find a new workout schedule
I've been doing my current schedule of workouts for a little over 12 weeks now and I'm ready to change it up. I'm going to be getting a gym membership at a gym in O'Fallon and hopefully I'll be reinvigorated to continue my fitness journey.
Those are my 3 main goals for the summer. I'm hoping that I can make all 3 a reality (especially the cookbook one because I really want to be able to meal prep so that I can save money and nourish my body). I'll keep you all updated and if you have any advice, send me a message on Facebook!
Until next time,
Taylor xx
