A well-timed chocolate fix. Another goal? No "drive by" snacking. Any and all snacks/desserts will be intentional and thought out. No more Hey I went to the kitchen to get a glass of water but then I opened the cabinet and saw the cookies so now I've got twenty cookies in my lap and no water moments.
Having the best name ever. There's just something powerful and elegant and lovely about my name, and I'm not ashamed of loving it so much. If I were crazy enough to procreate and it were a girl, I'd want to give her my name. Men do it all the time - why is it considered "weird" or "self-centered" when a woman does it?
Ear candy. Being able to pop in my earbuds and stream the comings and goings of my six favorite fictional friends makes the work day so much better.
Whittling away the to-do list. My work email inbox is a running to-do list. If I get a new task, I send myself an email and it stays in my inbox, acting as a virtual Post-It note. Yesterday, I got to archive two of those emails. Progress.
Back in the kitchen again. Yet another goal for this year? Cook five nights a week. We've been sticking to it exceptionally well, and for me, there are few things more satisfying than methodically transforming ingredients into something more than they once were.
I love cooking.
