Checking In XII

checking in A Spoonful of TLC
Hey there!  Last time I did a ‘Checking In‘ post was in October, so that means we have lots to catch up on!  These types of posts are just a quick recap of what I’m doing/ enjoying in life at this time, and I really like looking back on them to see what was happening in various seasons of life.  I would love to get to know some of my readers, so if you want, leave me a comment and choose one category to answer!

Making: BAGELS.  oh my gosh, so many bagels.  This week has been probably one of the busiest weeks in the history of Bruja’s Bakery.  You know when you buy a pair of pants, and they fit fine, but then they get tighter and tighter?  That’s how the kitchen and Bruja’s Bakery is starting to feel.
Cooking:  to be honest, I haven’t been cooking much.  Luis and I have been getting by by the seat of our pants (is that the saying?).  We have been eating a lot of salads, rice, and fried eggs.  Mom, come cook for me.
Drinking: black espresso with a lot of water and a sprinkle of cinnamon.  I went to Starbucks last week and now I am obessesed with American coffee and cinnamon!  You can take the girl outta America, but you can’t take…. you know.
Reading:  I just finished Nujeen, which is a memoir about a girl (in a wheelchair) who escaped Syria and made her way to Germany by crossing through multiple countries.  They made it because her sister pushed her wheelchair, and also thanks to the help of strangers. ….Ok, I started writing this a couple weeks ago, so after finishing Nujeen, I read Memoir of the Sunday Brunch, which was very good and also sad, and written like poetry.
Wanting: some ‘going out shirts’ and also a big dough mixer so I can make more bagels at one time 🙂
Looking: forward to the weekend!  As soon as this gets posted, we are heading out to meet friends for a drink and then going to a comedy show.  Tomorrow is also an exciting day! It’s the first time that Bruja’s Bakery bagels will be sold IN A STORE!!!!  So I will be working there from 10-2 and I will report back!
Eating: lots of kale salads!  I have been loving this winter kale salad which is massaged kale with cranberries, chopped dates, goat cheese, roasted squash, and salty nuts.  SUPER good.
Wishing: that tomorrow goes well!
Enjoying: the feeling of being caught up on bagel orders.  Also, I have been enjoying this crazy warm February weather.
Loving: hot oatmeal with smashed banana, chia seeds, and melty peanut butter
Hoping: that things pan out!  I have some exciting things that could possibly happen soon, and I am hoping they turn into something.
Listening: to this song, at the moment, so good.  http://https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nqnkBdExjws&list=RDnqnkBdExjws&start_radio=1

Feeling: like I really have to pee.  Sorry Mom, for putting that on the internet.
Wearing: a pair of Zara jeans (on sale, heeeyyyyy), and a burgandy turtleneck.  
Watching: FYRE!  Have you seen it on Netflix?  I love documentaries and this one sucked me right in. 

Bookmarking:  nothing, atm.
