June 7 - Too Hot to Cook Special

I haven't been blogging lately partly bc I haven't really been cooking, partly bc I normally write my blogs at night and lately at night I am either studying or working on painting/moving things to Janty's house at that time or I'm just not in the mood after doing all that stuff during the day. Also it's been super hot so I haven't felt like being in the kitchen. I'm going to try to blog at least once a week, though. Here's a round-up of some things I've eaten recently.

Oh, I didn't take pictures because it was dark when we got it, but Janty and I got the BTS McDonald's meals. 10-piece chicken McNuggets with fries, coke, and new cajun and sweet chili sauces. Except we swapped coke for Sprite and I did regret it. I liked the cajun sauce best.

Post-Nose Cauterization Treat: Aura Bora Cactus Rose

I went to the doctor last week to find out what the deal is with my nose and they didn't really give me any useful info but they did go ahead and cauterize it. I went to Streets on the way home and got this. Very refreshing!

Cheese Toast

Toasted sourdough, cheddar cheese slices, paprika and sesame seeds on top. I was going for the vibe of- you know when Mom went through a phase where she was always making us cheese toast with sunflower seeds? I was going for that but I didn't have sunflower seeds so I used sesame. Not the same but still a delicious treat.

Sushi Deluxe Platter and Watermelon

Janty picked me up after work last week to go get pet supplies and we got Harris Teeter sushi and watermelon afterward. Not their best sushi day but this was a nice summer dinner.

Cafe Dua from Ceremony Coffee

Vietnamese-inspired nitro cold brew with coconut cream. It was good but sometimes when I drink coffee like this it makes my stomach feel empty and bad for a long time afterwards and that's what happened with this. Janty got the tea version of this and it tasted more coconutty and was so nice. I might get that next time.

Bagel Salad

Spinach&Arugula mix, smoked salmon, everything but the bagel seasoning, green onions on top. Can't go wrong with bagel salad. Lemon juice and olive oil for dressing.

Blueberry Pancake

Giant blueberry pancake with whipped cream and syrup. Janty made this. He did bigger than he usually does so the batch would be done faster because I needed to go home and study. It was so big I felt like I was at a restaurant. Fun!

Mushroom Noodles

This was an instant package from my Christmas box I think. Added shiitake and green onions. The picture on the package also had spam slices, which would have been really a perfect meal but I am medium trying to pay attention to my sodium intake eyeroll eyeroll so I didn't buy spam. Still good with just mushrooms, though.

Florida Seltzers

Prickly Pear Guava - drank this while I painted my room on a hot hot day. It tastes like aloha maid kind of, but bubblier and with alcohol. Slurp slurp.

Navel Orange Yuzu - This was less sweet than the other one, but good in a way where it made me feel like an adult that I liked it so much. Sort of tastes like orange peel, but in a way that you go, "oh! what flavor!" I sipped this while I took a practice essay exam. I bought these in a variety pack. The other flavors are blackberry agave, raspberry lime, kiwi strawberry and...I don't remember. Oh, pineapple mango. I looked at a photo I took. I keep these at Janty's house because I think they are fun to drink while doing house chores and also because I just happened to be going to his house when I bought them so I never took them home from there.

Ok, that's all! Writing this took way longer than it would take for me to just post every day, but I have a lot of free time this evening, so it's nbd. Idk what I will do in the future. Just wait and see, I suppose.

Oh wait I forgot!! I also got a baja blast colada freeze from taco bell! Now that is a fun drink, I tell ya. You should go get one.
