Blogging gives the week a scaffold.
I did miss a day last week because I was sick. And then this past week, I felt so awful on Wednesday that I just couldn't get it together.
I mean, we went to toddler time because I needed to get him out of the house but I took a two-hour nap when we came home and I woke up feeling worse. I just cannot kick whatever I had last week. I haven't even been taking pictures so I don't have much to share. Yesterday was about knocking out my to-do list because I felt better.
Leaving the house with a cucumber in tow.
2.
This sweater from Target. It's the Knox Rose brand and I hate that I paid full-price for it but it's pretty great. Mine is more of a blush/gray, not the ivory that's on the site. It is reminiscent of the $64 sweaters Stitchfix would send me in 2015 and I just couldn't justify all the time, but I maybe had one or two. Long enough to wear with leggings, short enough to tuck in the front with pants. 10/10 so far.
(I got a large so it'd be big so I'd say this runs a bit smaller.)
3. Coconut Lentil Curry Bowl. I made this last night and please go to the website for pictures. It was SO GOOD.
I added extra chicken broth but it still turned out very much like a stew.
I used green lentils because I couldn't find red ones and I checked at two stores.
I omitted the kale because kale is disgusting.
And I roasted the chickpeas and added them at the end.
I made some rice noodles to have with it because I had them on hand, but skip that and just go for some naan. I would 100% have naan on hand next time.
10/10 for this recipe. It was SO EASY too. Wells would not stop eating it.
4. Funny stuff:
Not curbs, but the trash can. I've hit it three times in the last 6 months.
5. If you made it through 5 hours of The Bachelor this week, bless you.
MyKenna has the BEST nails. Have you noticed?
Also, Tammy is a bully and Peter is the worst Bachelor. He's so bad at this. It's just really unappealing. I liked him a lot on Hannah's season. He only likes girls who cry to him.
Victoria F. is stupid and mean and I really like Kelley because she has legitimate common sense about her, but Peter doesn't like that. He likes whispering and crying.
I think they're all a little ridiculous and, since Peter is the worst, it's just a dumb season. I can't see this ending well.
