I haven't been making food at home...

I haven't been making food at home as much as I should recently because I've been hyperfocused on swatching my polish.  I'm really terrible at keeping my life in a balanced state.  When I have a "project" to do, that project is all I think about.  I don't know why I'm like this, but I've definitely always been this way.  So when all I want to do is swatch polish, I don't want to be bothered with making food.  So we usually end up eating fast food and that is catching up to me.  (Don't get me wrong - I love eating restaurant food, but fast food is hard for me since I eat so little meat.  I don't do cows at all and there are really only a couple of places that do fast food chicken in a way that I like, and one of those places I'd rather not support).

ANYWAY, I haven't been feeling the most healthy lately.  My pants are getting tight and my psoriasis is breaking back out.  Blegh.  Last week I made cornbread and ate canned soup with it for a few days.  Today I made lentils with taco seasoning and had tacos for lunch and I am so excited about how that turned out.  I didn't have to deal with meat at all and they taste so good and are healthy!  I can see me eating that frequently because honestly, I love tacos.  I mean, who doesn't?  But for real.  I'm so happy.

Also, Shaun ordered an Instant Pot for us because it looks pretty handy.  I think it will arrive this weekend.  I'm so excited to make dried beans in it.  For whatever reason I have been a bit put off by canned beans lately.  I can't really pinpoint why and I don't feel like thinking too much about it, but I find it really satisfying to pick through my food before it's cooked because it's easier so I'm down with going through dry beans and lentils and whatnot before I make them.

Super exciting update, right?  LOL  I'm just trying to get making food easier for myself so I'll do it.  I don't mean to be so terrible about food, but it's just the way I'm built.  😝
