Here goes…

What we’re eating

I mentioned in this post that I could live on orange soda and rotisserie chicken.  Once upon a time, that was my diet.  But at the beginning of this year, I took part in the Daniel Fast for 21 days.  On the menu… Plants and Water.  Think BEANS, GREENS, POTATOES, RICE, and LENTILS.

This is mixed salad greens doused with my homemade chickpea dressing and a sprinkle of Tajin chili-lime seasoning.

Interestingly enough, I enjoyed the Daniel Fast and I am proud of my success.  Also, I like the way that I feel.  I am still following a whole food plant based diet.  LB is half following.

Now that the 21 days has ended, I’m drinking coffee in the morning again, but with almond/coconut creamer only. This one is pretty good. Hummus has replaced rotisserie chicken as my new favorite.  But I am once again enjoying my orange soda on the weekend!

What We’ve Been Up To

Last week I made a birthday cake.  A four-tiered birthday cake.  It took four days.

This was a learning experience that included cake boards and dowels.  I baked the ten inch layers on Wednesday, the eight, six, and four inch layers on Thursday, applied the crumb coat on Friday, and put it all together on Saturday.  Although the finished product was pretty ugly, the princess who ordered it seemed pleased.

What I’m Working On

Trying to come up with content for my blog.  Now that I rarely go anywhere, it isn’t as interesting to post about what has been going on.

If I report my thoughts about politics any more than I already have, I may be cancelled 😆

What I’m Excited About

Daylight Saving Time

which begins on the 2nd Sunday in March.

Yes it is true that we are going to lose an hour, but I prepared for this and took the following Monday off.

What I’m Watching/Reading

With my 21 day Daniel Fast book came a devotional.

Since that 21 day experience ended, I have been reading my Bible every morning.  It only takes 21 days to form a habit.

What I’m Listening To

since I’m increasingly and overwhelmingly disgusted with MSM, I’ve been listing to alternate news, for example     AndWeKnow  on Rumble.

What I’m Wearing

I haven’t bought into the lounge-wear trend.  So I am currently wearing jeans.

Every.

Day.

What I’m Doing This Weekend

I absolutely will  NOT be baking LOL!

At the moment I anticipating sleeping in on Saturday morning.  Nothing has been planned at this point.  Going out isn’t as much fun as it used to be, mostly because I can’t breathe under a mask.

This is why I reminisce about the good ole days.
