I made these over the weekend and they were gone in seconds, safe to say they were a hit! 🙌

Here’s how to make them:
➡️ Mix @coolwhip with @truvani vanilla protein, and 2 tbsp of @jifbrand peanut butter
➡️ Scoop between graham crackers
➡️ Roll the edges in mini chocolate chips 🍫
➡️ Freeze for a few hours… then devour 😍

These taste like a treat, but sneak in some protein too. Win-win! 💪🍪

DIY Raised Garden Beds

We are trying something new out this spring- DIY Raised Garden Beds! I have never had my own garden before, besides my simple and easy DIY Herb Garden. So I am super excited to start growing my own fruits and vegetables. I thought it would be fun to share the whole process on how we started it here with you all.

DIY Raised Garden Beds
Look how cute they turned out to be!

This post contains affiliate links. Click here to read my disclosure policy.

Selecting a Raised Garden Bed

We had two options when it came to selecting a raised garden bed. We could either buy one as is, or build our own. There are pros and cons to each.

The pros to building our own would be the way we could really customize it to our liking. The cons would be that it would be pretty expensive to build them and time consuming to complete them.

Area before the Raised Garden Beds
This is what the area looked like before we added the garden beds in. Plenty of room for them!

The pros to just buying a raised bed itself were that it was much easier, cheaper, and convenient.

The cons to this were the annoying stickers that they put on the beds at the store. We decided ultimately though to just buy them from Tractor Supply Co instead of building our own.

Another pro to this was that we got the beds to match our stock tank pool exactly. We bought our stock tank pool from there last year, so we were able to get the same brand for the raised garden beds too. I love how they all have the galvanized metal look to them.

Preparing the Raised Garden Beds

We were, however, not able to get two of the same raised garden beds from Tractor Supply Co. One had a bottom to it and the other did not.

Plus, they were two separate brands. So again, the con of the stickers not matching was something that my OCD self did not enjoy!

Preparing the Garden Beds
You can see the difference between the two raised beds here.

But since one of the beds did have a bottom to it, we needed to add holes for proper drainage. My hubby drilled some holes into the bottom of it before we added the gardening soil on top.

And since the other one just sits on top the grass, it was already good to go!

Drilling Holes into Raised Garden Bed
Drilling holes into the bottom of the raised bed.

After the holes were drilled, we were then able to add in some gardening soil on top.

We didn’t skimp with the soil and decided to use some high quality raised bed soil for this. And each bed took a total of six bags to completely fill up.

Planting in the Raised Beds

Filling the Raised Beds with Soil
Filling up the raised beds with soil.

The last step in these DIY Raised Garden Beds is to start planting obviously! We are starting small and only doing two right now, mainly filled with fruit.

But later on in the summer, we want to add more beds and do more vegetables.

Strawberries in Raised Bed
Planning out where to plant the plants!

After I got some plants, I spaced them out and put them on top of the bed before planting them. I wanted to make sure I spaced them out properly.

I also did some research to make sure I was planting the correct things together.

Strawberry Plant
Close up of our little strawberry plant!

For example, I got strawberries, raspberries, and blueberries. But, you shouldn’t plant strawberries and raspberries together in the same bed.

However, you can plant strawberries and blueberries together. So no matter what plants you get, be sure to do your research before you plant them in your raised garden beds together.

Baby Strawberry
Look! It’s a little baby strawberry already!

Well, I cant wait to document this whole process with you guys throughout the summer. I am hoping we have a very bountiful harvest and that our efforts will be well worth it.

But, of course, I will let you guys know either way. Do y’all like to garden too? If so, give me all the tips and tricks since I am a complete newbie!

DIY Raised Garden Beds
Pin for later!

Checked into our dreamy hotel just in time to watch a storm roll in over the ocean (tell me that’s not peak beachcore 🌊⚡).
Wrapped the night with sunset views + fish tacos at @lulusnmyrtlebeach and yep, day one = 10/10 no notes.

Car wash anxiety is real and no one talks about it Car wash anxiety is real and no one talks about it enough 😩🫧
It’s not just lining the tires up perfectly with the stress of others watching you do so… it’s also the chaos once I’m inside.
My intrusive thoughts? Fully convinced the wash will break, trap me inside, and I’ll be living in there forever 🚗💀
Please tell me I’m not the only one?! 😂

Do I have kids? No.
Do I have cats that deserve to ride in style? Absolutely. 😎🐾 There’s so much room in here for me and all my non existent kids! 🤣

Rolling up to Trader Joe’s like I’ve got 4 toddlers and a juice box emergency… but it’s just me and my emotional support fur babies in the back. 😂

Soccer mom mode: unlocked.
Minivan life chose me, and honestly? I’m thriving. 🚐✨

It’s the only rental they had.

Catch me pulling up to the pet store like I’ve got a trunk full of toddlers and a midlife crisis… but it’s actually just me and my emotional support felines living our best suburban fantasy. 🐾

Tuesday Treats is brought to you by some yummy and Tuesday Treats is brought to you by some yummy and easy frozen s’mores- but make them protein-packed and absolutely delicious 🤤🔥
I made these over the weekend and they were gone in seconds, safe to say they were a hit! 🙌

Here’s how to make them:
➡️ Mix @coolwhip with @truvani vanilla protein, and 2 tbsp of @jifbrand peanut butter
➡️ Scoop between graham crackers
➡️ Roll the edges in mini chocolate chips 🍫
➡️ Freeze for a few hours… then devour 😍

These taste like a treat, but sneak in some protein too. Win-win! 💪🍪
Would you try them?!👇

We rarely eat here (hello, kitchen island life 😅), but at least it’s dinner-party ready… just in case! 😉
