The Things I Remember... And the Things I Forget

It really is funny the things our brains choose to remember. I was talking to some friends last Friday evening, and one of my best friends was talking about when she first came to our church. "It was an Easter Sunday," I remembered. "You were wearing a green sweater." This kind of memory wouldn't seem all that incredible... except for the fact that I can't seem to remember silly, mundane, day-to-day things like if I've taken my meds yet or not.

So that I'm not laughing alone, I thought I could share some of these moments with you.

Can you tell what doesn't belong in the knife crock?
(Hint: It's pretty small, and it's orange.)

I know this is small, so it's hard to tell...
but I didn't clip my pinkie nail.
Happens. ALL. The. Time. !!!!!

And (I don't have a picture for this one, but...) I forget to order supplements I need when I place my ginormous Vitacost orders. #headdesk. Good thing we have The Vitamin Shoppe and Wegmans!

In other news, this is my 100th post on Peek-a-Boo! Yay! :) And it's the first day of Spring! Double, triple, quadruple yay! Now, for it to get warm. =D

Thankful Things

The pleasure of serving other people.
I baked all these cookies for my dad and didn't eat a single one!

The joy of visiting old people and shut-ins

Cinnamon cocoa! I will post a recipe soon.
(It doesn't really have any cocoa in it, so... don't be too disappointed.)

Little friends

Okay, this isn't just oatmeal and yogurt... though I am thankful for those things!
This thankful thing is thankfulness for the energy & capacity
to now make my own meals without feeling completely exhausted afterwards. 

Time well-spent with good friends, making memories. And Starbucks. :)

Candida Cooking!

Just photos today. Hope you enjoy the colorfulness!

Working on multiple dishes simultaneously! Chicken salad, freeze-dried herbs, baked cinnamon squash, yogurt-marinated chicken, and roasted garlic.

Parsley, chives, rosemary. 

[about to be] roasted garlic!

Chopped chives and chicken salad!

Last but not least, a clean kitchen... and... my Vitacost order! Almost all of it, anyway. My ginger tea should be here soon. :)

That's all, folks! Happy Valentine's Day!

Love,
