I woke up pretty early this morning and was determined to do the ridiculous amount of laundry that I have been dreading doing. It ended up being 5 loads, which wouldn’t be horrible if I had a proper working laundry mat. Somehow, out of all the washers in our laundry facility, I chose all the ones that were broken. The laundry that SHOULD have been done by noon, took until well after 1pm. My annoyance level was at about a 7.
So I made myself some delicious, organic, fair trade coffee. That helped. By 1 I was starving. Luckily I had some leftovers from dinner to heat up.
This is a medley of homemade mung beans, carrot/corn, roasted garlic and Italian seasonings. I’ve never really cooked mung beans until this past year. I usually stick to my basic pinto, black and chick peas. Mung might be my new favorite bean. I’d like to have a go at making a sweet version soon since I enjoy all the desserts I’ve had with them before. (note I also had some brown rice w dulse- not pictured)
Dinner tonight was vegetable heavy. I find as it gets warmer that’s all I want to eat. They’re fast cooking and contain so much water. I just sauteed the veg and seitan with some olive oil and added actual kalamata olives at the end to munch on. Simple but satisfying for me.(again, I had some brown rice with this)
After doing all that laundry I watched a movie- No Impact Man- signed up for a FREE composting class, and attempted to plant a few herbs (parsley, basil and chives). We’ll see how it goes!
Now it’s time to assist in one of my last classes before graduation. See you later!
