Small Joys — cooking

Day 104

Random number 373

Cook a meal from scratch

I made turkey chili and Grecian squares (spinach artichoke appetizer) last night. This is for today’s Triplets birthday party. We are doing a baked potato bar and the chili is a topping. The Grecian Squares is something I’ve made on and off for years, and decided this year to make my signature dish.

i chose this Small Joy rather than picking random because it was easier to pick one I was already doing! Life has been busy, work is draining. Maybe choosing one defeats the purpose of Small Joys which are suppose to be sorta unexpected, perspective-shifting moments of delight. But cooking did bring me joy, and the Small Joys project is my own rules. It felt better than just skipping again. The other half of Small Joys project is to get me journaling regularly. So I did that!
