Monday, Monday

Good Monday morning.

Chip got up early this morning with a full bladder so I'm up and dragging a$$ a bit.

A little recap on my day yesterday ... 

Spanish class was a lot of fun.  Still not sure why the nerves, but I think I'm over it for next week.  Nothing to be nervous about -- it's like some strange conditioned response.  She posted times for the next class and I'm torn.  Same time on Sundays, but that interferes with my bookclub.  Other choices are in the evening and I'm never my best then.  I could do Sundays and just miss for bookclub Sunday (it's only one this 6 week cycle).  I need to think about it.  

Chip is available for adoption and has 3 super good applications from previous adopters of our senior dogs.  Yea, Chip!  We'll see how it goes -- I'll do interview calls today.

I made a couple of new recipes yesterday.  Vegan carrot cake oatmeal bake with silken tofu "icing."  It's interesting.  Not at all sweet and I have a little mind-over-matter happening with the topping.  It's silken tofu in a blender -- I added a bunch of spices, but I think it needs more flavor to mask the tofu vibes.  

I accidentally opened the super firm tofu instead of the silken tofu so I made the marinated baked tofu cubes from The Kitchen.  I didn't follow a recipe, but used the same sort of ingredients -- ketchup, soy, spices, sesame seeds, etc.  It gets baked for about 45 minutes in a hot oven.  OMG -- so yummy.  It's my new favorite way to enjoy tofu. 

Today is a different vibe day.  Lots of homebody stuff, but still productive.  Journalling ahead of coaching tomorrow.  Spanish study to start the new stuff.  Chip adoption calls.  And a few other around-the-house chores.  

This is probably what my evening will look like since 3 of the shows I watch record on Sunday night (Sister Wives, The Gilded Age, All Creatures Great and Small).

Looking forward to a good week.  A few fun things without feeling too busy.  Hope you're set for a good one too.  Stay well.  Later gators.
