Last night I was in the baking mood so I made snickerdoodle cookies. They did not turn out soft and puffy like the recipe said but the taste was delicious and the recipe is promising. It was also just fun to make them and to be happy throughout the process. Elisabeth and I danced to…

5-2-20 Day 50
The past few evenings have been filled with friends and relaxation. I video chatted with my family Wednesday night and it did wonders on my mental health. Yay! I showed off my paintings and we played an online game that Kevin had found. I can't remember the name of it but know that it's similar…
4-27-20 Day 45
On Friday I allowed myself to wear exercise leggings. I wanted something comfortable and figured I've been doing fairly well staying put together so I could let loose a bit this one Friday. I was comfortable, yes, but by the end of the day I changed into jeans because I felt too messy. My brain…
4-19-20 – Day 37
Friday after work, Elisabeth and I drove to Fire on the Mountain restaurant and picked up our dinner. It was the first time I had driven in weeks and it felt really good, surprisingly. There were way more people on the highway than I thought should have been out and that was frustrating. But, I…
4-11-20 Day 29
Thursday evening I got to video chat with my family! We hadn't all done that together yet so it was so extremely beneficial for me to do that. It did make me miss them even more than I already did but I think seeing their faces was worth it. I'm now trying to get us…
4-8-20 Day 23
This morning I made cinnamon rolls for breakfast. Same recipe as last time but I added some brown sugar to the filling instead of just white sugar. It turned out okay but I think I prefer the white sugar so next time I'll still do a mix but have more white to brown. I like…
4-4-20 Day 22
My morning started by baking chocolate chip muffins for breakfast (another reddit recipe). While I didn't love how they tasted when they first came out of the oven, I thought they were missing some kind of flavor, after cooling down, I discovered I quite like these little treats and would make them again. They were…

Yesterday I baked 90% vegan chocolate chip cookies. They were only 90% vegan because I used milk chocolate chips. I tried to find vegan chocolate chips at multiple grocery stores when Elisabeth and I went last, but they were all sold out and so I made the decision that I would be okay with eating…
3-15-20 -Day 2 of Self-Isolation
Yesterday I took my time with things, and that was nice. Yesterday, I read, cross stitched, wrote, painted (see wip on right), and went on a walk. It has been a long time since I've been able to do all of those things in one day. I did panic a little yesterday too, however, as…

Yesterday morning Elisabeth and I ate breakfast at Snooze. It's a popular breakfast chain here in Denver and while I've lived here for going on EIGHT years (gasp), I had yet to visit. Honestly, I had thought the love for the restaurant was all just hype and I had no interest in waiting for an…
