Things I Enjoyed this Week
I have started three 30 day challenges this January.
- My Uber Frugal Month with the Frugalwoods is going ok so far. I splurged on my feast at Pagliacci’s last week, but my excuse is that I was spending some of the stimulus money I received from the government. I had a quite a few no spend days this week.
- While I am enjoying Breath: A 30 Day of Yoga Journey with Adrienne on YouTube, I have not been consistent, and that’s fine. I’ll keep at it when I can, at my own pace.
- This Middle Splits Stretching Follow Along video on YouTube from TrainLikeaBallerina has been a daily routine for me while I watch old episodes of Drag Race All Stars and Canada’s Drag Race.
- I want to continue posting the new words I find in the wild from books or podcasts.
- Hawser – thick rope used to tow or moor boats
- I watched no Oscar Best Picture Winners.
- I taught myself no new constellations this week.
Meal Prep and New Recipes Tried
I only made one actual new recipe this week and some fresh squeezed orange juice. I am just working my way through some pantry and freezer meals.
- I made a Tarte Tatin following an adaption of Julia Child’s recipe on the Food Network. I used all butter instead of a butter/shortening mix and I just quartered the apples. I overcaramelized it, so the caramel was really dark. It gave it a rich flavour though and was not too sweet at all.
