The feeling when it's cool out, AND breezy, AND it's Friday, AND you get throw the windows open to air out the house 🤤

I hate when people ask "how are you" at work in the morning. I want to respond with "Doing okay, just daydreaming that I'm on a nude beach somewhere getting folded like a pretzel and pounded into oblivion. the usual." But instead have to say work appropriate things like "living the dream" 🫩

Sometimes you gotta say fuckit, and eat your feelings a bit. Made some shrimp étouffée for dinner tonight 🤤🤤🤤

A picture of a light blue dinner plate that has a bed of rice, topped with a creamy shrimp étouffée on top. It's seared shrimp cooked in a sauce with bell pepper, onion, celery, garlic, sherry wine, mixed with a splash of heavy cream at the end to emulsify the sauce.

The AuDHD urge to crawl into a pillow/blanket fort with a box fan engineered into one of the walls to provide airflow, watch Adventure time and eat copious amounts of dumplings, and hide from all societal expectations all weekend is entirely too real.

Another swim down! A little on the slow side today, but also, I'm just swimming against myself, so there's no need to be competitive ^_^. Just happy to be back in the pool.

Did you know... that if you add natto to a bowl of sticky rice, with a little vinegar, some chili oil, surimi, cucumber, and cucumber for lunch.. it's still gonna taste like natto? Don't get me wrong. Natto is great, but sometimes, I want to taste the other things it's with.

As someone who's struggled over many years with basic tasks like eating breakfast, I'm happy to report that I've found a dish my flavor of tism not only approves of, but craves in the morning. I know it sounds simple, but it's a huge thing for me 🥹 #FoodPorn #AuDHD #TismThings

A picture of my breakfast. It is set in a teal bowl. Inside is instant oatmeal topped with sunny side up eggs, nori furikake (a Japanese condiment with toasted seaweed, sesame seeds, and other seasonings), and garlic chili crisp (a bright red chili oil with fried garlic and chili flakes).

#NowSpinningOnVinyl #VinylRecords Taking a bit of a ride on the nostalgia train today, with a pressing of Give Up, by The Postal Service. I really liked this side of Ben Gibbard branching out and trying new things. Shame they had to hang it up 😔

I went swimming for the first time in 3months after battling an upper respiratory infection that turned into community acquired pneumonia. I made it to 400m, made a rookie mistake, accidentally breathing in a glug of water, almost making me throw up right there. If you need me, I'll be in bed.

On this week's episode of "My dogs are probably more spoiled than most other dogs", I am prepping their food supplement/topper to sneak in more vitamins and fish oil for their coats and joints. #DogDad #SpoiledPuppies #DogsOfBlueSky

A picture of the contents of a crock pot. I've added frozen spinach, green beans, peas, carrots, sweet potato, and pumpkin puree, on top of ground turkey, and brown rice.

This will cook for 5-6 hours to become a homogenous blend, mixed with other vitamins and fish oil for them to get other nutrients into their diet.

#NowSpinningOnVinyl #EthelCain Sometimes you just need a little moody and ethereal music to play in the background. Today's offering: Preacher's Daughter: Ethel Cain.

An image of the vinyl cover of Preachers Daughter by Ethel Cain, sitting on a shelf mounted to my wall with lettering at the bottom reading "Now Spinning".

The vinyl art/jacket displays the artist sitting down on a chair, with their arm propped on a side table in a dimly lit room with wood paneling in the background. They are wearing a white simple dress, and are illuminated by sunlight coming through in a window. Posted above the artist is a darkly lit image of Christian iconography, which leads to the dimly lit image being more sinister and darker.

Did I make my own spin on bang bang shrimp, while adding mini Korean mandu (pork/veggie dumplings) for lunch, because fuckit? Yes. Yes I did. Do I regret anything? No. No, I most certainly do not.

The sauce contains kewpie mayo, hoisin sauce, sriracha, oyster sauce, a healthy tablespoon of furikake (Japanese seasoning with toasted sesame seeds and seaweed). It coats everything in a rich and silky pinkish sauce that is salty, savory, slightly sweet, and spicy!
