i'm sitting here wondering how the HELL people do it?
how do people manage to:
have a job
clean a house
cook nutritious food
spend with their spouse
have some alone time
exercise
read books
spend time with friends
i'm barely holding it all together. my house is a disaster. we've been eating peanuts for dinner because neither one of us has time to shop for food. i have a list of friends i want to email that is growing by the day and a stack of books that i feel guilty every time i look at. the only exercise i get is the walk from my car to my office.
so i am feeling pretty down in the dumps about things. i think part of the problem is that i want to be 100 percent in everything. to illustrate: in my world cleaning doesn't mean running a clorox wipe across the counter--it means scrubbing the baseboards with a toothbrush.
but i can't do everything 100 percent. so i'm changing my expectations of myself. one home cooked meal a week is my 100 percent right now.
so let me show you my hundred percent. i made beet gazpacho. i love beets and tomatoes and cucumber. the recipe is from veganomicon, a lovely vegan cookbook if you are interested in plant based eating.

we cheated and added a little bit of feta cheese to our bowls |
