Todays activity took me to the garden. I sowed some more seeds for the fall - radish, lettuce, and carrots for the third time.
Apparently carrots don’t germinate in temps over 80 degrees. I didn’t find that out until after the second attempt.
I’ll probably do a last harvest of my tiny peppers and giant basil this weekend and then take them out and maybe plant something else for the fall.
Oh and I accidentally grew some pumpkins from the ones I chucked out back last year 🎃
We needed cheap and easy tonight so I got some rotisserie chicken and a baguette from the grocery store and made salad BECAUSE HEALTHY HOBBITS EAT BREAD.
A cozy little lunch, because healthy hobbits eat their veggies 🥗
Also, it’s just occurred to me that I am not a fan of Neve Campbell.
Also, maybe it’s my age, but old Skeet Ulrich is better looking than young Skeet Ulrich.
I said what I said.
Todays spooky background movie. What are you watching?
I made the same lunch as yesterday but added bell peppers and used sesame sauce instead of bbq to give it a different flavor. It was definitely more filling with the added veg but I preferred the taste of the bbq.
We are loving a simple life so I always cook the meat and prep the veg in a batch ahead of time so it takes less time to cook
Lessons learned today: a good life doesn’t always look the way you think it’s going to look. Even if you don’t have all the big things you thought you would have, the little things are pretty damn good
I went for a cozy walk today. It’s hot outside and I wanted to light a candle and walk in front of my tv so that’s what I did. I also downloaded this app that tracks your steps and you travel to fake Mordor, but I’m just using the free trial bc I haven’t decided if I want to buy the full version. With the trial you can only track one mile per day.
We tried to go for an outside walk after dinner but the halflings were being difficult and then we wound up getting in a conversation with our neighbors
"If by my life or death I can protect you, I will."
So my six year old has been low key watching the LOTR films as I play them in the background while completing important tasks that use up a lot of my brain space.
Please note this child will not watch Disney movies because of the “scary parts”
Throughout the duration of the films she asks me back to back questions -with very complex and complicated answers.
I am equal parts proud, excited, and exhausted. Like, my brain is oozing from my ears - but I’m happy about it?
THAT WASN’T BUSINESS ENOUGH FOR ME
