Hobbit - Blog Posts
We needed cheap and easy tonight so I got some rotisserie chicken and a baguette from the grocery store and made salad BECAUSE HEALTHY HOBBITS EAT BREAD.
This doesn’t look super appetizing but, my god, it’s so comforting.
Kids playing in their rooms, sick husbo watching One Piece in the living room, gloomy rainy weather, and me - alone in the kitchen- making soup. I like it here.
So my six year old has been low key watching the LOTR films as I play them in the background while completing important tasks that use up a lot of my brain space.
Please note this child will not watch Disney movies because of the “scary parts”
Throughout the duration of the films she asks me back to back questions -with very complex and complicated answers.
I am equal parts proud, excited, and exhausted. Like, my brain is oozing from my ears - but I’m happy about it?
A cozy little lunch, because healthy hobbits eat their veggies 🥗
A warm mug of Chai tea and Charmed while I work ☕️
Bbq sauce goes weirdly well with broccoli.
Bonus hobbit points - bell peppers and jalapeños came from my garden and I pickled the jalapeños myself
I went for a cozy walk today. It’s hot outside and I wanted to light a candle and walk in front of my tv so that’s what I did. I also downloaded this app that tracks your steps and you travel to fake Mordor, but I’m just using the free trial bc I haven’t decided if I want to buy the full version. With the trial you can only track one mile per day.
We tried to go for an outside walk after dinner but the halflings were being difficult and then we wound up getting in a conversation with our neighbors
I made the same lunch as yesterday but added bell peppers and used sesame sauce instead of bbq to give it a different flavor. It was definitely more filling with the added veg but I preferred the taste of the bbq.
We are loving a simple life so I always cook the meat and prep the veg in a batch ahead of time so it takes less time to cook
This has become a favorite comfort snack, especially when it’s cold. It’s like chicken and stars soup, but it’s homemade and it tastes better. Plus it’s super simple to make
For two weeks I’ve been eating more vegetables and fruits, cutting back on salt and alcohol, and eating less “overly processed” foods. Already I am sleeping better, having less anxiety and heart palpitations, and overall, I’m just feeling better. Huzzah!
Can I just pretend this is the plot of BOTFA?
In which Dís is fed up with idiots and fighting and decides to do something about it, saving the day with her awesomeness and now everyone can go home.
Okay, hear me out - pizza delivery but in a fantasy setting...
