Today was relatively calm; I’ve been drinking lots of tea. Been fighting off some migraines.
Doing laundry.
Had a plumber out to fix a leaking showerhead.
Made chicken pasta casserole, bread and asparagus.
I’ve been enjoying cooking what I can for the family, even when I can’t eat it. For a long time, I tried to come up with recipes we could all eat, but now that I’ve gotten more limited, I’ve basically given up, and am just cooking two completely different meals.
On one hand, it’s more work, but on the other hand, it’s a lot more satisfying to cook with more ingredients/ revisit old recipes that I used to enjoy eating, and can remember how they taste. It’s hard sometimes to get flavors right when I can’t taste-test (and I really miss taste-testing) but it’s still wonderful to be able to cook at all. I’m trying to focus on what I still can do, because I have so much to be thankful for.

Have any of you tried out Pixelfed (Instagram alternative)? I’ve been checking it out. I dunno.
I feel so mixed about social media- loving it, while also just wishing it were simpler.
