Windy Wednesday

The snows are coming in now.  Yesterday was rain / freezing rain.  It's super windy too. 

And I'm super bored.  We have NOTHING planned for almost 2 weeks.  And if you don't count cleaning, we have nothing planned for almost 3 weeks.  Like nothing nothing.

Depresses me.  Ugh.  I can't even get myself interested in painting.  Have fiddle a bit at it.  Made a card for AJ for Valentines tomorrow.  I'm just so blah.  Really don't want to keep eating AIP..... BUT if I don't I feel worse.  We had lunch the other day - McD.  Ouch, ugh.  Pain.

Jacqui says Stevia isn't good for my body - that my body doesn't like it.  So I've been trying to not have any stevia in 'coffee' or teas.  I've tried honey and syrup.  Neither work.  I just don't taste it.  Problem is too - that I used A LOT, I mean A LOT of stevia in teas/coffees.  1 drop is like a thousand times sweeter then sugar.  I must have been up to about 15-20 drops.  Just couldn't taste any sweetness otherwise.  And now a tablespoon of honey is nothing.  Decided that much honey or syrup isn't good either, so just use nothing.  Threw my coffee tea out.  But then that wasn't even real coffee either.  All of it just sucks.  Tea tastes like hot water.  Fake coffee tastes, well like fake coffee.



So there's no pleasure in the coffee or teas.  The food.  Eh, it's ok.  Most of what I make is actually pretty good.  Today I'm making Cranberry Pork Tenderloin in the slow cooker.  My favorite so far is the Beef Taco with Sour Cream and chips.  But I think that's because the chips are cassava chips from Natural Market that are light and crunchy, and salty.  The sour Cream is coconut with lime.  I really like this meal.  Had to order more chips.

I think I just a bit bored too with the cooking of it all.   Desserts are the hardest, as they never really taste all that great.  They are ok.  Just not satisfying.  Closest one is the pudding with dates and coconut.

I'm whiny, bored and hungry.  And this weather sucks too.  Not really able to take the dog out for a walk either.  I tried shoveling yesterday - almost wiped me.  Chest was in such pain.  Neighbour shoveled twice now, this morning.  Yesterday's was very heavy and wet as it was basically that frozen rain / slush stuff.  I did get a path to the drain at the end of the driveway / road so the water could run to the drain next door and not pool.  That neighbour Rick, doesn't care if the drain is covered, if it's able to get water running into it etc.  So I just make sure it works or else the water pools back on the road to my driveway.  That too is a bit OCD on my part.  Spring will melt everything........ almost
