- Suppose I should start by apologizing for being silent for (over) two weeks. It has been for good reason (and not so good reasons, too, tbh). Most notably – I started a new job! Bit crazy really – I’m the pastry chef for a local brunch/lunch place – GB&D (Golden Brown and Delicious)! It was a complete coincidence and act of serendipity how it all happened, but it’s happened and I’m working and learning and adjusting. So, please forgive me for my absence.
- I also spent a few days of these last two weeks in Savannah for my birthday! I took my friend Mirri and we had a ball – walking, talking, drinking coffee and antiquing. Oh joy!
- We visited Back In The Day Bakery every day while we were there and I got to see Cheryl and Griff again and they signed their newest book for me and I fangirled so hard and Cheryl may have a better memory than I do – she remembered where I was from and what my dad did for a living. AFTER FOUR YEARS! What a gal. (And what a run on sentence that was.)
- I’m typing this from my new (to me) reading nook chair! I found it yesterday whilst thrifting and I’m tickled pink about it – and not just because the chair itself is pink! And vintage! It’s perfectly stuffed, the right height, the right shape. It’s like it was made for me and my house.
- In addition to thrifting I went to my first yoga class in months and boy! Did I feel it! And it felt marvelous. For my head and heart and body. Being in a class environment, surrounded by other people, really changes a practice versus just doing it at home. Must remember that.
- I finally finished the first season of the Great British Baking Show and OMG. I’ve never enjoyed reality television more – I laughed, I loved, I learned. I swooned over the British accents!
- Edgar now has a harness and I swear, the second I put it on him it was like I got a new pup. I’m not complaining. Since we’re walking a lot more with the weather and my new schedule, it’s a huge relief to have a better-behaved boy. However, that did not stop him from eating his bed while I was away and had a friend dog-sitting. Not cool, man.
- Bought myself this. #noregrets
- In the next few days I’ll be making my great-grandma’s lamb cake for Easter and it’s one of my favorite treats and favorite traditions. Will you be observing any food-focused traditions this holiday weekend?
