Where to start?
It’s Friday! (good news)
If you are anything like me and millions of others in the US, anxious about the outcome of our election on Tuesday.
I am certainly not participating in my first election… truth be told I remember Nixon in office and seeing him fly off in the helicopter after resigning.
That said I don’t believe I have lived in such tumultuous times.. certainly I couldn’t imagine the dystopian society fraught with the division of today.
I’ve always believed it isn’t party over country.. the middle is where we as humans should dwell.
It’s fine to align yourself with the party your beliefs are most similar to yours.
We can’t lose sight of how much is gained through mutual discussion. Likely by compromise the correct decision is reached, after truly listening to what each side of the discussion is actually saying.
Nough said…
Time for action!
Vote
Get through what is likely going to be a bit of rough go, especially if you’re sensitive like me… okay an overly anxious soul.
What to do, dig in, stay safe, binge watch a show (this will be a first for me, other than binge watching the news), have a few decadent drinks, whether you drink Diet Coke (my choice) something with a little something something or drink something just decadent sans, the something, something. Bake, goodies, make comfort food, polish your nails, do a facial, craft… do whatever makes you happy!
My overly optimistic list of things I may do:
Bake (cake or cookies or cupcakes)… a girls gotta do what a girls gotta do!
Bake a Kugel, aka noodle pudding… delicious warm, better cold
Save some cherry tomatoes and leftover onion…
Make some Pom Poms. Why? Why not? Soooo relaxing … oh maybe I can use them on my festivus tree.
Put up my pink festivus tree, a comfort tree without reference to a specific holiday. Everyday is a pink party day.. okay everyday should be a pink party day!
If you listen to my podcast… thinking few if any… my fault.., likely.. people can only listen to what people record.
I’ve been talking about accountability…
Clearly I need to and can do better….
So my plan is to actually add the recipes I actually make with a review. Post pom poms.. may share the pink tree..
Watch out for a daily planner page to use in November.
