Took the weekend off, but back at it today.

Which reminds me I need to make another batch of granola. So I've mixed that up and just put a tray of that in the oven. Gonna also make a sort of pommes boulangeres but with sweet potatoes because I have a bunch of those I need to use up too. Cook all the things! 🍽️🍲

Roasting butternut squash to make gnocchi, and then I think I’ll do a pear tarte tatin. Which will still leave me with a dozen pears to use up. Might just do a compote to eat with my morning yogurt and granola this week. 🍽️🍜

I had a huge meal and am making the executive decision to not try and close my Apple fitness rings today. I am immobile with the deliciousness. Back at it tomorrow.

I had so many apples that I didn’t need any pears to make the giant crumble that’s in the oven. Now I just need to figure out what to do with all these pears. (About two dozen.)

Haha. Just really smart!

Crumble is in the oven now 😂

Like here is a few weeks’ worth of apples and pears. I’m thinking a big apple-pear crumble, and some pear and ginger scones. 🍜🍽️

This weekend’s primary goal: to turn the surfeit of veg/fruit from a couple of weeks of Odd Bunch boxes into delicious food before it becomes unusable. My work colleague jokingly calls me trad wife but really I’m just super cheap/frugal and know how to cook and bake. 😂

Lee Marvin staring down at us from Heaven

Good morning and remember that Lee Marvin is in Heaven judging you. All that stupid shit you do? Knock it off or do it bigger, louder, and weirder.

Day 17, crushed.

So we just need San Jose to lose tomorrow for the Caps to stay at the top of the table, yes? (Or win by fewer than seven goals over their opponents. Do I have that right?) 😍😍😍 ⚽️⚽️⚽️🌊🌊🌊 #VWFC

All of this #VWFC

Looks like Caicedo will get his first start for the Caps tonight. You love to see it. #VWFC

Thanks! It was kind of either I start working at getting healthy or start taking medications, so…

Day 16 complete!

15 days in a row. Fuck yeah.

They have a lot of variety, which I do like.

Day 13 in a row of closing all my rings, done. I know the Apple fitness workouts are corny but when I don’t feel up to leaving the house (or don’t have time to) they are saving me and my daily goals.

Why I will never read anything you publish on substack, part eleventy

Day 12.

Bonkers!

Out buying a suit for Kid for his graduation, for those of you from the old site who remember when he was a baby. (!!!)

Hey Canadians. Any y’all know of a Barbara A Jameson?
This Womens Royal Canadian Naval Service bracelet thingy is/was hers. Don’t really want to chuck it away or stick it on eBay without asking.

Please repost

Crushing it. Eleven days now. (Nigel Tufnel voice engages.)

My beloved Whitecaps at the top of the table!!! 😍😍😍 #VWFC

Kid’s take: The Fast and the Furious is Point Break with cars.

Day 10, done. (Goal is closed rings every day in April.)

Kid’s movie choice for this evening is Point break (1991). So as soon as the pizza gets here, Point Break it shall be.
