Welcome to the place where I share what I’m up to each week and a bit of my real life outside of the blog.

The sleep deprivation culprit…

Feeling

Tired. Our son has decided he hates to sleep and therefore hates us. Hates us all I say. It’s a party I want to be uninvited to in our house for the last week.

Watching

I’m forcing my 5 year old to watch bad Christmas movies on Netflix. This week’s watching included The Princess Switch and The Knight Before Christmas. Of course she whines that she cannot stand these movies. But then she keeps talking about what’s going on in the movies like she is really invested in their riveting plot lines. It’s pretty much pay back for all the Mickey Mouse Roadster Racers episodes she has made me watch. Man that show is terrible, just ask my hubby.

Reading

Just finished reading Enchantee by Gita Trealease. It’s a young adult historical fiction fantasy set in Paris just before the start of the French Revolution. It got significantly better, after you know, chapter 20. Still, I had a hard time getting 100% into it. It was not my favorite book but despite it I found myself invested in Camille.

Eating

I’ve been loving Instant Pot Fettuccine Alfredo and air fryer gnocchi. Absolutely perfect comfort food. 

In other exciting news, I have managed not to kill our tomato plants! (Yay!) In an effort to not let our hard work go to waste, we’ve been making lots of tomato based recipes, like:

• Caprese Panzanella
• Caprese salad 
• Instant Pot Caprese
• annnnd allll the tomato pasta- tomato pasta with burrata, bruschetta pasta, everything!! 

That’s it for me this week! What are you up to? How are you all holding up? Leave me a comment and let me know!
