Leftover, kind of stale popcorn. I'm trying to get better about not wasting food.

“You must be shapeless, formless, like water. When you pour water in a cup, it becomes the cup. When you pour water in a bottle, it becomes the bottle. When you pour water in a teapot, it becomes the teapot. Water can drip and it can crash. Become like water my friend.” -- Bruce Lee

I seriously love these things. The math is: greens, grains, protein, fat.
So it's cooked quinoa, steamed broccoli, spicy marinated tofu, steamed Bok Choi, avocado, lime juice, and a sunflower seed butter sauce (kinda like a tahini Lemon sauce but I'm out of tahini, so I used sunflower seed butter)
....it's spicy and crunchy and wonderful.
We are all these things [...]. Pride, desire, compassion, cleverness, belligerence, fruitfulness, loyalty...and guilt. But above it all stands love. And if we desire to be more than human, that is the star by which we must set our sights.

You only have to let the soft animal of your body love what it loves.
“Leaving is not enough. You must stay gone. Train your heart like a dog. Change the locks even on the house he’s never visited. You lucky, lucky girl. You have an apartment just your size. A bathtub full of tea. A heart the size of Arizona, but not nearly so arid. Don’t wish away your cracked past, your crooked toes, your problems are papier mache puppets you made or bought because the vendor at the market was so compelling you just had to have them. You had to have him. And you did. And now you pull down the bridge between your houses, you make him call before he visits, you take a lover for granted, you take a lover who looks at you like maybe you are magic. Make the first bottle you consume in this place a relic. Place it on whatever altar you fashion with a knife and five cranberries. Don’t lose too much weight. Stupid girls are always trying to disappear as revenge. And you are not stupid. You loved a man with more hands than a parade of beggars, and here you stand. Heart like a four-poster bed. Heart like a canvas. Heart leaking something so strong they can smell it in the street.”

Spaghetti. It's been my go to for awhile now. Everyone will eat it except the 4 yo. So 75% of our household will eat it.
I also made peanut butter cookies this week, but I really don't like the recipe I found. It's basically egg, sugar, and peanut butter but they were either way too doughy then immediately went to way too overcooked.

I wondered if he could ever understand that it was a blessing, not a sin, to be graced with more than one love.
It could be complicated; of course it could be complicated. And it opened one up to the possibility of more pain and loss.
Still, it was a blessing I would never relinquish. Love, genuine love, was always a cause for joy.

We are going to make marmitako, minus the pimiento choricero, since I don't have any.
“You have never answered but you did not need to. If I stand at the ocean I can hear you with your thousand voices. Sometimes you shout, hilarious laughter that taunts all questions. Other nights you are silent as death, a mirror in which the stars show themselves. Then I think you want to tell me something, but you never do. Of course I know I have written letters to no-one. But what if I find a trident tomorrow?" ~~Letters to Poseidon, Cees Nooteboom
“We still carry this primal relationship to the Earth within our consciousness, even if we have long forgotten it. It is a primal recognition of the wonder, beauty, and divine nature of the Earth. It is a felt reverence for all that exists. Once we bring this foundational quality into our consciousness, we will be able to respond to our present man-made crisis from a place of balance, in which our actions will be grounded in an attitude of respect for all of life. This is the nature of real sustainability.”
~~Llewellyn Vaughan-Lee
"We are the offspring of history, and must establish our own paths in this most diverse and interesting of conceivable universes--one indifferent to our suffering, and therefore offering us maximal freedom to thrive, or to fail, in our own chosen way."
~~Stephen Jay Gould, Wonderful Life: The Burgess Shale and the Nature of History
"Humans are not rational creatures. Now, logic and rationality are very helpful tools, but there’s also a place for embracing our subjectivity and thinking symbolically. Sometimes what our so-called higher thinking can’t or won’t see, our older, more primitive intuition will." John Beckett

I'm eating green seedless grapes and pretzels for my snack. I've been having an obsession for grapes for a while. I like green better than red, way too sweet. However, if I have to, I will eat red.

Chicken kwitch or cwiech or quesh, or whatever you call it cooling now, I'll be eating in about 5 minutes,
Those who have suffered understand suffering and therefore extend their hand.
I can't do everything, but I can do something.
I made miso soup (veggie style) last night with tofu and sea vegetable flakes. My husband made fried catfish for himself and our daughter. We had our first sit down family dinner ever (daughter is four, it was a novelty). We're hoping to make a habit of it.
