26 - Sweet Potato Hash (recipe 1)


Mixing it up a bit with a new recipe.  I used this recipe for sweet potato hash here from Two Peas in a Pod.  https://www.twopeasandtheirpod.com/sweet-potato-hash/ I did NOT put it in the over I just fried an egg in the pan after cooking the ingredients.  I used peppers and sweet potatoes from my freezer.  
Mom and I liked it.  I especially liked how the egg made a sauce for it.  Thea like avocado (lol), but otherwise the kids were disinterested.  Sorry I didn’t get a better picture once I tossed the egg on top you couldn’t see all the pretty colors.

13 - Book 1 - The Vanishing Half


I have been in a real reading slump.  Starting maybe 10 books finishing maybe 1.  2022 has been not that different, I planned to read 12 books this year which doesn’t seem unreachable, but for me it might be.

This one The Vanishing Half I struggled with at first considered dropping it in the first few chapters but then I just committed.  It wasn’t bad,  I’d say it was a 3 star.  It jumped around a bunch in time and characters and that’s not really my fav.  But I appreciated the story although I felt a little like I needed a bit more in the end as well.

Not sure what’s next I have a bunch of books in my hold queue with the library.

1200 miles January Update


January has came and went.  And with it my goals to hit 100 miles.  Thanks to a handful days of 6+ miles I managed to get to 110.3 miles.  So I am 1/12 of the way to my 1200 miles goal.  Hoping to get ahead a bit in February, hopefully the weather will improve to make for more exercise.
