\"Stuffed<\/a>Today I’m taking a domestic day.\u00a0 I’ve been feeling a sort of disconnect from cooking, living, and feeling grounded.<\/p>\n

To be completely honest, I’ve been feeling this way ever since we moved into this rental.\u00a0 For some reason this rental has an odd vibe to it that makes me not really want to become one with the space.<\/p>\n

I hate it and so I end up not wanting to do anything but sit around and watch the time go by.<\/p>\n

Because of that cooking and creativity have suffered.<\/p>\n

I’m also still struggling to find a life balance that works for me in our new city.<\/p>\n

Add on the hectic schedule of two jobs and that means poor Scott is living with a tired and cranky me.<\/p>\n

He is such a trooper and good guy.\u00a0 He deserves a medal.<\/p>\n

Today though, I’m tossing aside my desire to not be here (in this space) and take a day where I focus on cooking and relaxing.\u00a0 Cooking is a stress reliever for me and even though the kitchen isn’t the greatest, it’s functional and that’s just fine.\u00a0 That’s all I need.<\/p>\n

I need to remember the motto of this blog:<\/p>\n

Embrace Food, Embrace Life.<\/em><\/p>\n

I haven’t been doing too much of that, instead focusing on being negative and angsty.\u00a0 Ain’t no one got time for that.<\/p>\n

Including me.<\/p>\n

So today, I’m choosing not to be that way. I’m choosing to be happy and chill.\u00a0 I’m going to tackle some stuff around the house, I’m going to experiment in the kitchen, and I’m going to cook for my two loves.<\/p>\n

No sense wasting time being a negative jerk.\u00a0 Instead I’m choosing to embrace our current situation and roll with it.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
