Inspirations
All the things that brought me joy!
Happy Sunday, everyone! I hope you’re all having a beautiful, peaceful weekend.
It’s been a bit of a moodier week here, weather-wise. We’ve had quite a few days of dark storm clouds looming overhead, and honestly? There’s something strangely calming about it. Watching the sky turn dramatic and watching the storms roll in has been its own kind of experience.
Sometimes, when the weather turns, it forces you to slow down in a way that’s actually really refreshing. There’s a form of excitement in being home when the power flickers, or catching that moment right before the bottom drops out of the sky. It’s a reminder that we don’t always need to be out and about to find inspiration; sometimes, you just need to step outside, let the rain hit your skin, and appreciate the energy of the world around you.
Anyway, we made a quick and easy recipe this week! We paired it with some cooked and seasoned yellow squash and a side salad, and everything turned out incredibly. No pictures, unfortunately, so you’re just going to have to make it for yourself and see how it turns out!
