shut up, sit down, and read

stay at home

I was sequestered (by choice) at home all day.  I was catching up on life and trying to prepare for the upcoming weekend and work week.

My sleep schedule is all sorts of fucked up.  I woke up at 0240 and tried to go back to sleep but that wasn’t happening.  I cooked myself an early brunch and had instant regrets because it put me into a food coma (gluten free pasta) despite drinking two cups of coffee.  I passed out for another couple of hours until the disgusting heat wave permeated through the house.

Before taking a shower, I watched a bit of porn to get me in the mood and quickly 딸딸이.  I don’t know what’s gotten into me lately but I’m freakishly horny these days.  Fuuuuck, my libido is off the Richter scale. Enter the Tinashe – Nasty song.

My friend invited us over next week for another Bridgerton Season 3 watch party.  I went earlier in the month for the first half of the season and now that the second half is out, it’s time to binge that too.  She’s a producer and director, so her take on things are interesting.  She’ll notice things that I didn’t even know existed, which helps me see things in a new light.

I also wrapped up creating my own study guide for my upcoming cert, it’s 111 pages long.  This shit took me nearly eight hours today.  I don’t know how I’m going to cram all that information into my feeble brain, but I’m going to do my best.

Meanwhile, I also meal prepped, made rice and Mississippi chicken (the healthier version – cutting the amount of butter and au jus).  I’ve never been to Mississippi but I love pepperoncinis.   I thought it would be dry because I adjusted the recipe but it was actually very moist to my delight.

I also cleaned the spare room and washed my bedding.  I like things fresh and clean.

Then a friend dropped by to bring me my favorite bread and a belated birthday present from another friend.  They really spoil me, taking me out to eat and bringing me coffee while I’m working. I don’t deserve them.  I try to be equally as thoughtful but there are times that I don’t have the bandwidth to do so.

I don’t like eating a lot of gluten for personal reasons (bloating and fatigue, I am not diagnosed with an intolerance to gluten but I know how it makes me feel after ingesting it) but if I were going to eat it, this would be it.  It’s edamame cheese bread from Roji Bakery.

It’s a small Japanese bakery by the Miracle Mile in LA.  I don’t know what they put in this but it’s addicting AF.  The almond croissants are also good but if I had to choose between the two of them, it would be hands down the edamame cheese bread. I have been obsessed with this place for years and it never disappoints.  When I eat it with melted Les Pres Sales butter and an Americano..I am in heaven.

I looked up the recipe online for this bread and I immediately closed the tab because I didn’t have time to proof the dough as instructed.  I’ll have to save that for another time.

    edamame cheese bread? Damn that sounds good. I looked them up on yelp. The matcha croissants look good, too. I’ll have to stop by the next time I’m in the area.
