I tried a spinach & feta turkey meatball recipe last night, and they were so good!! I made my usual tzatziki with it and a quinoa salad, definitely going to be making these again in the future. I know some people donât love trying ground turkey and chicken recipes because if theyâre overcooked they can be dry, but I definitely kept my eye on these and only had them on each side for a couple minutes all the way around. The texture reminded me of lamb kofta, so if you like kofta maybe youâd like these! Especially with the tzatziki.
For a more basic palette: Marry Me Chicken! Something a bit more âdifferentâ: Harissa glazed carrots with garlic yogurt topped with chopped pistachios and cilantro :-)
I know Iâve ranted about AI before but! Just saw another writer who was doing peer reviews as she was writing chapters with another person; until she found out the other person was using AI for their NOVEL! Blows my mind. She removed this person from her document and sent her a kind but straightforward message about how she wonât be working with her going forward due to the AI usage. I feel like using it for novel writing is one of the most insane uses because #1 this person told me that the AI generated parts of the work werenât even as good as the other personâs normal writing was. #2 letâs say no one noticed and you published with the AI work, so you would be okay if the book did well but it wasnât even truly your writing that people would be praising?? Not to mention of course the morality and environmental impact. Also, I was shopping around today for a custom leather stamp to start stamping the leather journal covers I make. Thought I found someone to make it until they said to send the logo file over and theyâll send back AI created renderings of a mockup to approve. Now I am starting the search all overđ
Today was one of those bad days where it causes a headache and you feel exhausted from everything, but somehow a nice long walk outside made things seem a little better. Fresh air and thinking or daydreaming while listening to the sounds of outside. I sometimes find myself taking for granted the place that I live, I work or Iâm too tired and I use that as an excuse to not go outside more. Yet every time I get the chance to spend the time outside, I canât say I ever regret it. Iâm going to make it a goal for myself to try and take a walk outside at least a few times a week.
