spur of the moment Phone calls

I miss the rotary phone and the allure of not knowing who was calling. I also love hearing people react to something and sometimes I cannot be bothered to look at my face in the FaceTime window!! To best replicate that I love calling someone out of the blue to say hi!!! in order to best delve into calling it’s important to increase the volume and frequency of calls in the first few months so that you don’t stress anyone out with fear of bad news. once that’s all through you’re in business girlypop! The other day I called someone and we chatted for 40 mins just telling stories and giggling and this is what life is about I’d say!!!

dancing is the medicine

dancing

a study issued last month found that dancing is the most effective way of treating and mitigating depression. Walking, therapy, and yoga also outpaced SSRIs. and if you're saying 'oh this was probably funded by Big Dance', there's no evidence of that and if you're saying 'that's just what a Big Dance shill would say', well honey you're right

Rice bowls with tuna (or tofu) and a big pot of lentils

I loosely follow eric kim’s recipe below for the tuna, some marinated tofu would also work well. Then I make a big pot of rice, and add whatever toppings I have on hand throughout the week (kimchi, cucumber, cilantro, sesame seeds, all things that require very little of you and can be done ahead) For the lentils, I make a big pot at the beginning of the week and again, top with various things I have around (an egg, a handful of arugula, lemon, yogurt, garlic) I find that having two bases that are different enough and customizable keeps feeding yourself simply from feeling like a punishment while you focus on other things. ps: if you’re new to lentils, lemme know, i’ll write out my recipe for ya!
