Adventures in Cooking – Pasta with Zucchini and Tomatoes

 

100 Dishes – Dish 17 – Pasta with Zucchini and Tomatoes

This one was quick and easy to make. It had too much garlic in my opinion, next time I would make it with a lot less garlic. But fast, easy, and tasty.

Adventures in Cooking – Chicken Baked with Asparagus

 

100 Dishes – Dish 16 – Chicken Baked with Asparagus

We don’t love paprika or hot sauce so this dish was a bit blander than I imagine it is if you follow the recipe fully. Instead, ours was mostly garlic and lemon. It still tasted good, even though this is not the best looking dish.

I love Israeli Couscous so I was looking forward to making and eating this one and it totally didn’t disappoint. Delicious, healthy and easy to make. We used spinach instead of arugula.

Review: Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life’s Purpose

Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life's Purpose
Beyond Anxiety: Curiosity, Creativity, and Finding Your Life’s Purpose by Martha Beck
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

There’s something about Beck’s ability to read her own books that resonates with me and also her no-nonsense attitude and clear articulation of her ideas. Combine that with the fact that so many of the things I am looking into and learning about right now like IFS and Byron Katie all culminate in this book. And most importantly, this completely and totally explains why I paint for 1-4 hours every single day now. Love this book.

3.5 stars on this one.

I feel like the first story was the most exciting one by a long distance. Book two and book three were both interesting and I thought this book was the conclusion so I read it but now I am not sure it was the end? I still liked my time with it.

Adventures in Cooking – Sautéed Zucchini

 

100 Dishes – Dish 14 – Sautéed Zucchini

Super easy and delicious. Also I learned that if I don’t flip the zucchini often, it gets crispier and darker. Yum.

Practicing my sketching. “Water is fluid, soft and yielding but water will wear away rock which is rigid and cannot yield. As a rule, whatever is fluid, soft and yielding will overcome whatever is rigid and hard. This is another paradox: what is soft is strong.”
