Woke up feeling good, and in a good mood. Good dreams no back pain, happy to spend the day at home with my partner. Then it all tanked as minor things Snowballed--- getting groceries, chatting to support an aqquaintance (no resolution, endless).... Rain. Then it amped up with getting wet from the pouring rain, being wet/damp/cold/icky feeling while unloading groceries, navigating around super happy pets (annoying me and under foot), having to scoop poop in back yard in rain, while wet anyway. It's squishy gross mud out there. Come in strip off clothes, tired, thirsty. Dry off. Feel gross damp even though I'm dry, still cold and Also too hot when I put fresh clothes on. It's like WTF man, why is EVERYTHING annoying me!?
I just want to feel ok, sit down and feel ok, be dry.
Then decide to make easy cookies (jeera biscuits- very simple cumin cookies) and it wipes out my energy a bit. I realize hate to wait while batches. Cook. Kitchen is a Tetris nightmare of pet hospital stuff/art stuff/and foodie stuff. Every action requires moving something. :( ugh.
Why !?
Almost done. Last batch in, need to zone out soon. Wtf is wrong with me? Maybe this is why I stopped enjoying cooking. No stamina, plus kitchen tetris.
Omg cumin cookies with a tiny bit of butter and apricot jam .... Delicious!
1 c plus 2T flour (or half almond half reg flour)
1 stick unsalted butter
3T sugar
1 T whole cumin seeds toasted while oven heats
1/4 t salt plus a more in you want
3 T milk if needed to bind dough
Oven 350'
Mix all like making biscuits. Make balls, smash till thin bake carefully till crisp and a bit golden.
