The pain of USA—> Europe jet lag. Land exhausted ready to fall into bed after 24 hours of travel, push through all day to “adjust” only to lay wide awake with insomnia at midnight. My alarm tomorrow will be painful.

Travel odyssey continues. Booked flights with a 7 hour buffer in Boston (two separate flight - I visited people while stateside). Buffer didn’t matter when #JetBlue was the ONLY cancelled flight. What are the odds? Stressful morning but send some good luck to get to Boston via Chicago!

Nothing says I’m traveling for a conference like flight delays, missed connections and late arrivals at the destination! I think I’m a case of traveling #murphyslaw. Too bad #KLM wouldn’t rebook me to a direct flight. 😢 #FENS2026 I’ll make it there somehow!

I started adding some broth to dishes to make them more savory, like cooking it in with quinoa/bulgur or also black beans, adds some depth to the flavor. What kind of soup do you like to make?
