Journal 74 Labor Day Special

🛠️ Labor Day Special 🛠️

Hi there! Today we had a nice relaxing holiday. Although some Americans consider this to be the end of summer (and the last day you are "allowed" to wear white), to me, summer is still happening.

Today was simple and that was exactly what we wanted. My partner grilled and I tried doing the tough job: being the helper. My partner did perfect! Me, I did okay.

We had vinegar-marinated chicken, mashed potatoes, and creamed spinach. The chicken was juicy, tender, and flavorful. Deboning was so worth it; the chicken thighs cooked so much faster. The mashed potatoes were soft and tangy. The wilted spinach with cream cheese was awesome.

And once again I am so so so sorry that I didn’t take any pictures!

The olds left to go to a party, so it was just the three of us for a few hours.

I think the trick to today was experience and planning. We took it slow for the whole day. We left the would-be stressful tasks for non-stressful times.

Thank you for reading about my relaxing day. I hope you have times in your life when you are able to deeply unwind. Please have a super great week ahead!
