November Highlights
November started with Kevin and I attending a Wholefood Plant Based cooking class with Adam Guthrie of I Feel Good. Such an amazing class and I’m excited to also take the online version when its released.
Halloween decor was put away.
Since Athena had been unwell, I gave her bedroom it’s Spring Clean.
Kevin bought me a fancy tripod to assist in my video making.
I did a few small organizing projects when I was feeling well enough.
We started having family game time most nights after dinner.
Still doing Goldie spotting when we’re out and about.
I had my first grocery delivery. Got 3 for free so it was a great way to try it out.
I finally got a diagnosis of Fibromyaglia (after almost a year of tests).
In the Kitchen (October)
We started trying to eat a more plant based diet, which has meant buying lots of fruit and veggies.
While most weekdays I enjoy a homemade salad, it’s nice to sometimes have takeaway.
Farm fresh strawberries from Leanne.
There was the start of a kitchen declutter.
Athena made a Halloween Brownie cake for dessert with friends.
And made me my first ever sushi. Actually she made us a virtual bento box (miso soup & salad in background). It was SOOOO good.
There were two trips to Costco, which made for a very cluttered kitchen while I filmed my grocery hauls.
There was soup x 2.
And lots of baking.
