aka the extra sh!t room of the house. For so long, Luis and I have been using this room to store boxes, Bruja’s Bakery and Mazál things, leave extra shoes, all the stupid papers we have to keep, while I have been using the living room as my “office” since Luis has been home working. […]
Stress-FULL
Today was Stressfull, with a capital S and emphasis on Full. It didn’t start out stressfully (not sure if that is a word, but let’s go with it), but it got stressfull very quickly when I opened the first bin of bagels (we store them in fermentation bins overnight) to see that someway, somehow, some […]
I had a dream last night that someone I know (or I knew in my dream, but I don’t know who are they are now), we going to be raising pigs and I was explaining to him that he needs to crop the ears….snip the tails…maybe castrate the pigs. See Mom and Dad…4H has come […]
Granola and Peaches
This post has absolutely nothing to do with granola and peaches except that I am eating a bowl of granola and peaches and warm milk for breakfast as I type. The warm milk point is not by choice…it’s just that here in Spain, boxed milk is the common way to purchase milk (and it’s the […]
Fase 2, Mac and Cheese, and More
Hello there! How are you? I hope this Monday finds you well. If you are in Madrid, then happy Fase 2 Day! Yes, we are officially in phase 2 of this quarantine bs (I mean that in an “I am over this” sort of way, but I also know that it is (somewhat) necessary). Anyway, […]
We Are in Fase 1
Dad, are your spelling sirens going off from that title?! For anyone else reading, I am well aware that fase is spelled with a ph, but in spanish, it is spelled with and ‘f’ so *insert tongue-sticking-out emoji*. Hello there! I am coming to you bright and early (9 am) already showered, dressed, breakfasted, and […]
Keeping You On Your Toes
Sorry to leave you in suspense yesterday…and Tuesday! I meant to post, but like I’ve said before, once I start to do things, there is no turning back to post. So here we are, a couple days late, but that’s ok! Don’t want things to get to MUNDANE around here during the quarantine…gotta keep things […]
I Need A New Title
Should I just keep calling these posts Monday Morning Coffee Chat? That’s what they are, but it seems repetitive! Anyway, hello friends, random readers, Mom, Dad- nice that you’re all here! I am writing this to you after going for a run and then I went to pick up bagels from the local bagel shop. […]
High on a Monday
Hello! I am writing this and I’m a bit high….in endorphins! From the first run I have been on in over two months! It is 70 degrees and sunny (at 10:30 am) and going uo to 85 and sunny today and it is just the third day that we are allowed out for exercise. We […]
Monday Morning Coffee Chat III
Good morning, friends! Another week later and here we are….time really flies doesn’t it? TIme has always moved quickly for me, especially since opening the bakery back in January, but now…. nothing compares. I think the feeling of time moving quickly is a good thing- it means you’re busy, doing things, have things to get […]
