combining the old and the new
what can i say — old habits die hard. even with a drastically different lifestyle, i still plan my workouts and dinners weekly.

may goal #2: diversifying in the kitchen
i’m doing okay at this one, although my breakfasts and snacks are still pretty monotonous. still, by cooking dinners and relying on leftovers for lunch, i’m definitely getting in a bit more variety than i had been. from this week:
 |
| real simple’s coconut, shrimp + corn chowder – super easy! |
 |
| i LOVED this vietnamese-inspired pork salad inspired by my new cookbook‘s recipe for sweet pork lettuce wraps |
[if you’re interested, it was basically a base of romaine, shredded carrots and julienned cucumber plus ground pork dressed up with brown sugar, chinese 5-spice, and soy sauce. then, all this was topped with a sweet lime/soy dressing and crushed peanuts. delicious.]
may goal #3: projects
there were 3: organizing my closet, working on a photobook, and returning the maternity clothes i had borrowed. basically, i’ve accomplished none of these [although my cousin is moving to miami and has offered to drive the clothes back with her when she moves — sweet!].
luckily, there are still 2 weeks left. and these projects aren’t quite as critical as . . . well, this.
