Mundane

Monday had very little going on for me.  My bicycle (which was getting new gear switcher thingies) was finally done and ready for pick up, but aside from that I did little else worth mentioning. I started the day with another carob coffee concoction.  This time I added a tsp of carob powder to the milk during the frothing process. Turned out pretty well.

If you are wondering what a type A person looks like before a job interview, here you go: Prepping slash watching the seconds on the clock tick by.  SO nervous.  Keep your digits (all of ‘em) crossed for me.  After an hour of selling myself offering to give up my first born child for the job, I noshed on a colorful bowl of strawberries and apples.  It was still gloomy weather when noon arrived, so I felt like a warm comfort sammie.  Tempeh fakin’ bacon.  I bought this on a whim (and because it was… Read more >
