Under Construction

Ola chic meninas!
It has been……a….long…..time. I’ve been juggling multiple ideas and re-considering the direction of the amodachic website. I couldn’t wrap my head around what I truly wanted out of the website. All I knew is that I needed to make a decision. I couldn’t continue funding a domain that had NOTHING to offer anyone- including myself. I kept wondering, should I just keep this as a blog? Should I open up an online shop? Should I turn it into a portfolio/look book for the work that we do?

This began as a blog in 2014 and to think of it as anything other than that really rubbed me the wrong way. I felt like I abandoned what I truly loved to attend to another “love” and “passion” of mine.  However- after much consideration, I decided to not only keep amodachic running as a part-time blog but include an online shop. Content posts could even relate back to the work that we do with event stationery,  branding and even include DIYs! Plus much more. I never intended in leaving anyone hanging. If you follow us on Instagram , you know we’ve been busy.

Veggies, dip and crackers oh my!
Nothing wrong with having some delicious assortment of veggies in fridge because regardless of who comes or (doesn’t) stop by, they will be used. Keep a yummy dip on hand and some delicious crackers to compliment them. My favourite crackers to have in stalk? Mary’s Organic Crackers.

Frozen cookies or cookie dough
In the winter I typically launch my Christmas menu with pretzels, bark cookies and carrot cake. A great tip I learned was freezing the short bread toblerone cookies for my own personal indulgence because already baked- they will last 2 months in the freezer! Saving freezer space? Roll the dough in balls and leave in the freeze, once thawed, bake for 15 minutes! A quick treat for your guests.

Dry pasta or frozen ravioli + a great sauce
Dry pastas are staples in many households but it’s extremely important to always have a great sauce on hand too.

Spice Up Your Work Lunches: Winter Edition

lunctimedesk

Many of us career gals have the opportunity of working in our dream field with some kick-ass co-workers that sometimes turn into great friends and even family. I’m key on developing relationships at work as it helps with the overall workplace atmosphere and just makes for better days. With most office jobs, come the standard office hours of 9-5 (give or take) with a 1 hour lunch break. A whole hour? Daring! But it doesn’t have to be boring, in fact, it could be quite the opposite.

Today I decided to share a couple of ideas on how you can spice up your work lunches during the fall and winter season.

Do Something Active
Our group of gals at work are fortunate enough to work just minutes from a Go Karting facility, a bating cage, gym and bowling alley. Since it is winter though, we opt for a cardio intense session at the gym or a relaxing yoga session. If the weather is mild, we’ll even take out our runners and go for a nice walk.

Host Themed Pot Lucks Once a Month
A tradition I’d love to start at work. Pick a day every month where you will host a themed pot luck and coordinate with your group who will bring what. Some pot luck ideas? Sandwich Bar, Mexican, Southern Theme and so on. At the present time, we pick random days and pick our best dish and pig out in the boardroom- this works too.

A DIY or Craft Hour
We haven’t had one of these in a while but I’m thinking of making this a ritual! Rent out a space at work, if possible, we use our boardroom and just unleash our inner Martha. Crafting can be quite relaxing and can help us get the creative mind flowing.

A Blow Out + Nail Appointment
Find a local salon and just go in for a quick blow out. Most won’t take more than 30-40 minutes so you’ll have a boatload of time without the stress of getting back to work on time. I have gone for a quick polish change many times on lunch with tons of time to spare! Not only is it relaxing and refreshing BUT it saves me time in the evening too.
There are two cialis tablets australia http://www.midwayfire.com/wp-content/uploads/2019/05/Jan8-Pension-Meeting-Minutes-Approved.doc types of penis erection drugs that can boost your self-confidence. Moreover, reports suggest purchase levitra that nearly 2.3 million men in the United States. An indicating tab sildenafil molecule similar to testosterone connects with the assortment of chemical receptors in the body, to prompt an assortment of physical progressions. If he is not ready to talk about it, buy cheap viagra see if he is comfortable to talk to a doctor.
Journaling + Good Coffee
Grab your favourite pen, journal and make your way to a local coffee shop and give yourself some time to plan or just simply, write. I prefer going to a local Second Cup near my work and enjoy my favourite hot chocolate while I jot notes, ideas and goals. I find this to be relaxing, a way to unwind and a great way to sneak in “me time”.

Volunteer
Any local shelters, retirement homes, hospitals or schools that can use volunteers? This is a great way to give back to the community! No places in site? Start your own initiative at work, build a committee and see what you can do to raise money for a cause.

Shopping
Pretty self explanatory – hit a local mall or boutique and get those purchases rolling!

Enjoy chic meninas and share with us any tips that you do during your lunches to keep them fun and active!

My Biggest Lesson of 2016

Ola chic meninas! It’s day 2 of 2017 and most of us are getting ourselves back into our normal routines or trying out new ones that incorporate new resolutions or easing off old bad habits. Anytime a new year rolls around, I like to reflect back on the previous year and make some notes. I tend to reflect on my biggest successes, lessons and so forth. Today I decided to share with you, my biggest lesson of 2016.

Ever since I could remember, I have been a creative soul. Once I started experimenting and putting my passion to work, I slowly started providing print services to family, friends and that turned into strangers who would randomly contact me – yay for organic customers! If you browse our instagram account, you’ll see that lately we have been extremely active.

Anyways, I always had a tough time charging people for my services though. I would probably ask 5+ people “is this too much to charge?” , “is this worth it?” and 98% of the time I was told that I am “undercharging” or that the pricing was spot on. I remember once my cousin told me, Amanda, you’re only making $10.00 on this, what the hell is wrong with you! Ha, to go back in time…the things we would change.

It seemed that every price point needed justification, validation and a shit ton of research. Which, in all fairness isn’t always a bad thing.

You research a cost to see how much your competitors are charging. You justify it by the quality, labour and time it takes to create and design. You validate it because you just want a second, third and in my case a 5th opinion just to make sure. But when does that whole vicious cycle of self doubt end? Does it ever?

In 2016, the biggest lesson I learned was that it’s OK to put a price point on your work and NOT feel guilty about it. This goes for everything though. A small business owner, a personal trainer, a blogger…the list goes on. Time is money and our time is valuable.

The problem I constantly faced (and sometimes still do) was understanding that my PASSION and something that I enjoyed doing for fun and as a hobby is now a service and a product that I am providing to somebody else.

In 2017, I decided that I am no longer going to hold back and be afraid of putting a price tag on my work. Not everything is for everyone and if someone does not see value in what I am providing them at the price I am offering, that’s fine.

Wishing you all a fabulous New Year, may everything that you wish for come to you with grace. May be you be challenged, strive and grow in 2017. We cannot wait to see what the year has in store for us, a lot happens in a year!

Stay chic meninas, xo.
