A Semester Later...

12:03:00 PM

So I last wrote on here in January and didn't keep it updated (to say the east) on what was going on in my life at all. But since my last blog post was geared toward a new year and resolutions of sort, I figured I would comment on how those are going now (5 months later).



1. Vegetarian chef? : So I know how to make a mean vegetarian chili without a recipe, and it gets better every time I make it, but other than that I haven't expanded my repertoire of vegetarian recipes. Not in a way that I want, so in order to help me get there I have found a few recipes that I want to try out, and perfect to my own taste.

Soup: I love soup, and stews so I want to learn how to properly make one of on my own to have on cold days at home! I found a Chard, Lentil and Potato (slow cooker) Soup and a Green Curry Soup with Cauliflower and Leeks (which is also a gluten free option!).  
Smoothie: Although I already know how to make a few smoothies, I haven't experimented much beyond strawberries, spinach and banana! So I want to find different types of recipes that will energize me and be a boost in the morning! Although this recipe contains chocolate I am a huge Kale person so it would be an interesting combination to try out, this is also a vegan option (Kale & Chocolate Super Smoothie). 
Granola: I didn't find a recipe that didn't contain almonds (I'm allergic) and other nuts (again allergic) but I will be on the hunt for a perfect one to try and DIY to have with yoghurt and honey in the morning! 

2. Emotional State: I can't say that it's been drama free, but it hasn't been 5 months of unpleasantry. So far this year has been great, I've landed my first job (wooo!) and I brought my GPA up enough to apply for study abroad or dialogue, my sister is a soon to be mother (which means I'm going to be an aunt!!), I'm moving off campus to a cute little apartment not far from my University and I'm going to spending my summer traveling around a bit. So yeah, it's been pretty rad!

3. It's the little things in Life: I wish I could say I've succeeded in doing this, in paying attention more to things as they happen but I haven't been. Life has been happening and I've been trudging along, stressing about exams, projects, due dates and expectations. So in an effort to do better in this I want to start appreciating my surroundings more. I will take time to take deep breathes and take in what is happening around me.
