Hanging out with your 3 and 5 year old nephew and niece while trying to prepare a Thanksgiving meal is exhausting. Ask me how I know. Tonight’s post will be minimalist in nature, as I’m about to pass out. Just thinking about all the cooking I’ll be doing tomorrow makes me question my sanity.
To those of you who feel as though they too have been passed through a salad spinner one too many times, I have a suggestion. Sometime between now and tomorrow afternoon, take 10 minutes and meditate. Or do yoga. Take a cat nap. Daydream. Draw a picture with crayons. Eat some chocolate while lying on the grass and staring at the clouds (or lying on the bed and staring at the ceiling, if the grass is too wet and the sky is too gray). Just take a few minutes for yourself, breathe deeply, and smile. It’ll help you panic that much less later on.
Here are my food photos for today. You can fill in the blanks.
Yes, my afternoon snack was pie dough scraps. What? Like you’ve never eaten raw cookie dough?
