Just as a little moment of grounding... What are we all having for dinner on this sombre evening? I gotta use up my other half tin of coconut cream, so I'm going to do a rich tomato curry with tvp balls that I also need to use up. Along with the leftover everything-in-one veggie and dal curry and boiled eggs my aunt gave me.
Iโm still fairly limited in what Iโm able to have but a few squares of dark chocolate just climbed into my mouth
Same here! I needed it.
Very dopaminious choice for the evening ๐
I might be done for night.
I ate a bunch of bread with peanut butter. Started to feel a bit like I had too much because the bread was very doughy.
Weโll see how I feel later.
I'm hoping you get to have a bit more than just pb and toast to keep you going through the night, but also, there are days that are like that. Getting up at 12 midnight feeling ravenous is the worst tho...
Iโll see how I go.
Feeling off at the moment, unsure of how Iโm feeling exactly but Iโve been sitting here doing nothing in silence for the past 30 mins.
I hope the physical feeling passes soon. Mentally I think quite a few of us are staring at walls right now...
I'm having thai mango curry with some roti
Yum!! Homemade roti? :o I keep meaning to do it for ages but am lazy to even though I know it's so easy (and easy to freeze)
Frozen fried rice heated in the microwave - a real cbf dinner. Now the cool change has come through I NEED CALORIES! Had a nice salad for lunchies with some gorgeous red grapes after - grapes rn are pretty wow. These were intensely sweet and almost musky - very much muscatel vibes but juicy. Best I've had for a long time.
Ooh, you've inspired me to pick up some grapies to share at work on Friday. And yes re: the calories. Very grateful for some potat in my diet tonight.
Chicken roast, with roast potatoes, broccoli and cauliflower.
All hail the faithful potat. And the wholesome feeling of a dinner roast! I actually wanted to have something similar for dinner myself but remembered the coconut cream.
Tendies and salad pita wrap.
An excellent balance of health and heartiness!
Wood oven pizza and lemon lime bitters cordial. Maybe a kids size callipo if I'm feeling extra moody.
Tis the night for a nice wood oven pizza, good choice. I've told myself I'll reward myself with one when I finish moving. A $30 splurgefest deluxe seafood pizza.
Do you just randomly have kids size callipos at home though lol
It really is a pizza night tonight
I buy a box ever pay day lol it's my "treat". Always wanted them when I was a kid and my parents would never buy them.
So here we are today lol
Nice bit of self-care!! I like how that circles back to a childhood memory and letting that part of yourself be seen and addressed with love ๐
I had a deep therapy session today, if you can't tell lol... I think it's time I proactively did some nice things for myself too
Keeping it healthy tonight. I had a big lunch so I'm going with a chilled, fermented, yeast activated hop and barley soup
No sardines to wash down the beer?
Breakfast probably
