It’s starting to rain here but at least it’s not too cold.
B is out burning big piles of branches from the 2 trees we took down. It’s a good day for that.
I’m trying to not read too much in the news with Trump stuff. It’s just too much right now. I did look at getting a digital subscription to the NY Times. It’s a great news source but i’m not sure I want to pay.
I’m going to try to cook risotto tonight. I’ve actually never made it so I’m soaking some dried mushrooms for a broth and will make an herb risotto later. I’m going to either do salmon or shrimp with it. Plus a salad. I’ll grill some tofu too.
Well, I may take a blogging break as I want a media break but I’ll see how it goes.
I’ve been to the gym a few times and next week I’ll meet with a trainer to go over more weight machines. I like it so far and I think it’ll be good for me to add another activity.
I hear you on the social media & news more generally. I find myself wanting to “stay in the loop”, but feeling super stressed out as a result. I’m with you & have drastically cut back. I make a “cheater” oven baked risotto that is amazing. http://www.myrecipes.com/recipe/oven-chicken-risotto I follow the core risotto recipe, but change up the mix ins. Last night we had it with chicken sausage, spinach & parmesan.
Check out the UK Guardian. No pay wall and interesting journalism – especially on the US. http://www.theguardian.com
How did the risotto come out?
