Hi friends! Happy Thursday! It’s been quite some time since I’ve done a checking in post, so here we are with the 13th edition! It’s fun for me to look back and see what’s changed, and I hope you enjoy them too!
Making: Challah french toast!!! We have been doing some tests for a future Bruja’s Bakery and one of them is this yummy challah french toast that’s made in the oven. We bought this little cast-iron skillet just to be as hipster as possible.
Cooking: I always wish I had more to say here, but I feel like I spend so much time in the kitchen that I don’t feel like cooking is exciting for me, but I did make these Thai Meatballs earlier this week and we have been eating them with rice and quinoa all week. I loved all of the fresh herbs that went in!
Drinking: water with mint and cucumber slices in it because I’m boojey (lol how do you spell that?!). It’s that time of year where nice, light drinks sound amazing and I am HERE FOR IT!
Reading: I just downloaded a couple new books and finished Last December, a book I put on hold over 6 months ago! It was an easy beach read type book, so I flew through it. I have a bunch of other books on my hold list, but until then, reading some of the other books my library offers. Oh, and lots of NY Times- thanks Mom!
Wanting: all the new summer clothes but I am trying to refrain! I just bought a new pair of pants, 2 new shirts, and a new pair of sandals. Oh and a new sun hat, but I call that an “investment” into my youthful skin so…worth it.
Looking: forward to the weekend! We are heading to MALAGA tonight! Luis’ family has a place on the beach in Malaga and we used to go a couple times each summer, but last year we didn’t go at all which is just crazy. We are heading down tonight until Sunday evening and I am ready for some sun and surf.
Eating: at the moment, nothing, but I did have some pumpkin oatmeal with coconut yogurt for breakfast. Luis bought this coconut yogurt and I thought I would hate it, but I actually love it- smooth, creamy, and not sweet! It’s really good.
Wishing: that I could see into the future, but that would be no fun, would it?
Enjoying: this warm summer weather! And the feeling that summer is coming and everyone just has more of a pep in their step.
Loving: the Crime Junkie podcast!!! I discovered it last week and it’s my new favorite podcast to listen to. I have been going for long walks JUST to listen to it and it’s addicting. If you listen to any of them, listen to the episode about Israel Keyes- absolutely insane and bone chilling!
Hoping: that everything works out! That I don’t make any soul crushing mistakes with Bruja’s Bakery- business is scary stuff!!
Listening: Fly Away With Me by Tom Walker- so good! It’s a very summer song.

Feeling: excited to go to Malaga, and nervous about my class tonight because I have to get up and speak in Spanish in front of everyone. Ahhhhh
Wearing: my pajamas still, but I am about to put on workout gear and go for a walk (and listen to a podcast hehe)
Watching: nothing!! I have been so NOT into TV lately. It just doesn’t hold my attention at all.

Glad you’ve been enjoying the meatballs! I’m totally going to check out that podcast. I’m obsessed w similar ones, so I have a feeling it’ll be right up my alley.
I can’t get enough of it, but it also scares me!
