I’m ready to be back out in the garden again, we needed the rain but I’m sick of it.

The test kitchen is open today, and I’m trying a new recipe for Venezuelan style arepas. This one’s a keeper. The arepas will make an awesome delivery system for any number of yummy fillings. My vegan cooking is on fire these days!

“Motivation is fleeting and discipline and consistency is the key” – S.C.
All of this. Non-stop. Motivation is fleeting is my theme song for the past several months on one level, and discipline and consistency on the other level. It’s past time to gain discipline and consistency on all levels.
I’m experiencing a body sensation I’ve never experienced before. It was an abs heavy cardio day today. If you’ve ever lifted weights you might know that full sensation in your muscles – that “pumped” feeling. Well that feeling is in all my abs. It’s not painful just pumped. And the pumped feels really weird.

Coke thinks Americans are ready for coke with coffee. Yes! Definitely. It’s weird, but weirdly good! I had it while I was in Japan. (CNN)

Friends: Took Sam around Mt. Hood to welcome him back to PDX and to say hello to Mt. Hood. We went up to the “secret” wildflower hike/bike. Glorious day in the sunshine. The balsam root flowers were past prime, but the indian paintbrush and lupine were growing strong. Got to take Zorgborg for a semi-loop up there. Super fun!

Finally got the rest of the side yard dug out, and will be ready to complete that and get a new load of gravel in as well as a couple of raised beds to start a vegetable garden. What a freaking great weekend! I have a feeling a lot of bucket list type items will happen this summer.
