I’m back to a normal person again – the end of summer vacation was a rude awakening, literally. It was tough transitioning from Colorado time to a 6am wake-up on Monday, but I’m finally feeling like myself again. As for the new job – to say I feel overwhelmed is an understatement. Of course it’s only been two days, but the whole working in three different schools thing is a bit more confusing than I had anticipated. Let’s hope I can stay on top of things!

It feels great to be back in the kitchen! Though my kitchen isn’t fancy, I love having my own pots and pans and a stocked pantry. To easy the transition home, I bought wild salmon and made a nice dinner. Matt’s not a huge salmon person, so I’m trying to make it more appealing, and man, this fresh fish was sooo much better than the frozen salmon I’ve bought in the past. I think I’m going to go on a buy better meat, but buy less of it kick after this meal. Anyway, I marinated the fish in a mixture of olive oil, mustard, honey, garlic, and brown sugar and broiled it. This was wonderful, but I still miss Denver.
And it’s already 10…time for bed:(




I've created this blog because I'm in a bit of a quarter life crisis. Since graduating from college in 2008 and earning an advanced degree in school psychology in May, I still don't know what career path to follow. All I know is that time is moving way too fast and I find myself living only for the weekends. Bear with me as I attempt to reclaim my twenties by finding pleasure and balance in the work week and incorporating my passions of food, fashion, fitness, and fun into everyday life.
