Good morning ☕️

At this stage of life, I have learned to choose my battles.

And before coffee, I'm choosing none of them. 😂

Important question though: How do you take your coffee? Mine needs to be ______.

I've been working on something behind the scenes… 👀
Something I tried to do a few years ago, got completely frustrated with and eventually said NOPE. Not today, Satan. 😂

Wellllll… I tried again.
And this time? I DID IT. 🙌

I'm not quite ready to show you yet because I have a few finishing touches to make, but if everything goes according to plan...
Sunday. 👀

Any guesses what I've been working on?

Small business owner. Social media manager. Photographer. Video editor. Shipping department. Customer service.
AND apparently my own biggest fan. 😂🙋‍♀️

Yes, I have absolutely switched over to my personal page, seen a reel from The Joy Schoppe and thought, “Well somebody should like this.” 😆

Please tell me I'm not the only small business owner out here supporting myself. 😂👇

Coffee: because apparently “password123” isn't the login information my brain needs. ☕😂

Good morning from someone who is awake but has not yet been fully authenticated.

Coffee first or immediately functional?

Me walking past my plants for the 47th time today:
"Please don't die. I don't need that kind of responsibility or guilt right now." 😂🪴

Some people have a green thumb.

I have plants willing to fight for their lives.

😂 Be honest — are you a plant whisperer or a plant hospice provider?

Apparently I make fancy pasta sauce now. 😂🔥
Tonight’s experiment: butternut squash ravioli with a brown butter, fresh sage, garlic & Parmesan cream sauce.

I had never made this sauce before, but ChatGPT walked me through browning the butter, crisping the fresh sage and turning the whole thing into this ridiculously good creamy sauce.
And y'all… THIS ONE IS A KEEPER. 🤤

Served it with mushrooms, red onion & green beans sautéed with garlic and balsamic vinegar.

Not every experiment coming out of my kitchen is worth repeating. 😂

This one absolutely is.
What’s something you learned to cook recently that surprised you with how good it turned out?

Well…today’s experiment. 😂 while I am getting chemotherapy I figured "Why not!!"

Trying a sample of 2000mg THC topical ointment on my feet to see if it does anything for the chemo-induced neuropathy.

At this point, if somebody told me standing barefoot under a full moon while holding a potato might help my feet, I’d probably ask what kind of potato. 🥔🌕

I’ll report back. 😂

Anyone with neuropathy tried a THC/CBD topical? Did it actually help you?

Just your Tuesday reminder that dinosaurs didn’t have coffee and we all know how THAT worked out.

I’m not taking any chances. 😂

How many cups does it take before you’re officially a functioning member of society?

This is me...blacking out in a craft store and waking up broke 😆 🤣

GOOD MORNING EVERYONE!
Happy Monday! 💜🌻☕️☕️

YEP! Happens every time! 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️
