A Mindful Migration

Cry? Yell? Spit? (Probably not, sounds unsanitary). Laugh. Yes. Let’s go with that one. I really want to do all the above, minus the spitting, but today I’m leaning into laughter because I’m trying to push forward during a surreal, difficult and scary time, just like you. So instead of worrying together, why don’t we laugh instead?

I did, however, not read them on the second of the second month of the year, nor did I read them on the 20th of the year 2020. That would have been cool but I ain’t that cool. In fact, it’s actually, dare I say, not that cool in Minnesota either, which puts me in better spirits but not necessarily a reading mode. More like I’m digging around for the box with my Spring clothes and …. SANDALS! Sadly, my Kindle and books are still be ignored, mostly.

I pondered for some time about what I should post as my first food post now that I’m back in Minnesota. Should it be Minnesota-esqe? A tearful homage to my beloved California? Something completely unrelated? I had ideas. Lots of ideas. But ambition? Well, that’s another story! Ultimately, I went completely unrelated to where I live and just good food. Also food I could share with co-workers to prevent me from noshing on the whole pan, because self-control ain’t my strength.

Yes, I know. One book is probably not super brag-worthy but since I haven’t read a new-to-me book since September or October, it feels pretty amazing. Or sad. Maybe a bit of both? And sure, maybe I finished reading the book Sunday night but let’s not lose sight of the main point: I read something and I’m participating in the Show Us Your Books link-up again. Yay Tanya! You are such a good, committed reader. Or committable. Sometimes I get confused. 😉 Moving on, folks. Nothing to see here!

First up, y’all should have been jamming to a little C+C Music Factory when you saw the title. And if you’re not, well, see the first thing that makes me go hmmmm. But enough about my possibly bad taste in music! The world is on fire and democracy is ending, so let’s go out with a laugh. I mean that’s better than tears – right?
