happy late easter! and other shenanigans.

            


Hey guys! Sorry I haven't posted in a little while! John and I have been busy bees! Anyway! I hope everyone had a wonderful Easter, truly. No matter what the heck you were doing that day I hope it was good! John and I got a grill for our place, and we made some superb food that night too! Steak, shrimp, and mashed red potatoes. And the last picture is of my breakfast the day after. I'm seriously trying to eat better, and staying close to my practice with Yoga. 

That's all for now! I have another post that I'm working on as well! 

Have Love.

Eating Homemade:

I'm literally dying to want to cook so many homemade things, and then I end up NOT. Mostly because I work a lot now, and I'm hardly ever having time to cook at night, and at the end of the day I really just want to have something ready in 10 minutes, eat, hang with my babe, and then go to sleep. So, with that being said, I think that I want to start to look for quick recipes, that are easily prepped. Some of my closest friends are chefs, and seriously I don't know why i never just pursued the career, because I love cooking still, and if I can make someone happy by feeding them, then my day will have been made.

So, I want to try these foods, fast or not:

• Pesto Grilled Shrimp
• Mashed Cauliflower, using a friend's adaptation
• Spinach Lasagna Rolls 
• Stuffed Peppers
• Smoked Salmon Bagels (helllllooooo breakfast)
• Cheddar Broccoli Soup
• Steak? Yeah, just steak, but really cooked well.
• Homemade Pizza
• Lasagna
• Homemade Hummus (adorable illustration) 
• Homemade potato chips
• Artichoke Spinach Dip
• Cheddar Dijon Chicken Tenders
• Salads!
• Homemade Fried Rice
• Tacos, tacos, and tacos.

Art:

There's barely any art on our walls here in our apartment, so, I'll post some images of what I would like hanging up on our walls!

So, I really like Scoutmob, and the idea of it all. If I'm honest I would really like to start to actually buy things from their site, because a lot of stuff is really neat, and I really think that not only will I appreciate it, I know John will.

Anyway, this is the end of my post! I hope you were inspired to try a recipe or two, and checked out Scoutmob!

Life Lately

I was going to title this post, "my past week," but there's stuff in here that pertain to future living, and what's been going on in the past month. September has been pretty good to me, my birthday, John's birthday, I've been taking more photos of things, really trying to be creative. I also have a wanderlust, I seriously think that they should make it some sort of disorder, because I've got it bad. I think my wanderlust is in a different category, because not only do I want to travel, but I have a huge desire to move to the pacific northwest. I want to live simply, see the foggy streets from my front porch, live within the trees, and enjoy life. I want to do this so badly it's almost frustrating, because I know I don't have enough money to even move. One day it will happen, I know it.

I've also been going to friday night football games with John, because he helps out the football team, as well as his dad, and it's been fun! I've made a new friend, her name is Katie, and I just admire her, because she's funny, definitely trustworthy, and an all around great gal. I love how she talks about her boyfriend, because they plan to get married, have 5 little ones, and have football forever in their lives. Her and I are pretty similar, and I enjoy that. I definitely have fun talking to her, but it isn't fun when the team loses. The Chargers have yet to win a game this season, and I'm hoping after this past week they get a win this Friday! John's father gave them a pretty inspiring, hair raising speech that almost made me cry when he told us about it. It was so amazing, and I can't repeat it, because I know I'll botch the whole thing. But all you need to know is that it was awesome.

I've been talking to John about wanting to make home cooked meals more often at his house, because well, we don't eat in as often, and hitting the gym together. I love cooking, originally I wanted to be a chef with my very good friend, Dani. But that changed, and my desires got flipped around, and I want to be a photographer. Anyway, I really appreciate a home meal. I want to be able to go to farmers markets, meat markets, and other markets. I want to live wholly, but for now I can dream.

have love.
