march cookbook club + ade visit + overpriced smoothie bowl

this past friday i hosted the cookbook club at the library. this month we cooked out of dessert person by claire saffitz and i got a total of 5 sign ups. sadly nobody who signed up ended up showing but ava, mom, and cheyenne came (she aint bring nothing), and two regular patrons joined us and said they'd for sure be signing up next month. since the spread was mostly desserts i opted for tea instead of the usual soda punch bowl, it was a hit so i may consider bringing it back for this month. speaking of, for the month of april we'll be cooking out of a palestian cookbook. originally i chose Falastin a cookbook i found in the stacks but upon my author research i found out that 2/3 of the authors are zionists soooo....i decided to change it to Bethlehem and have placed a hold for it. after work cheyenne and i decided to go out for dinner (since she failed to bring me my much needed 7 brew banana bread latte). my body was in no shape to head anywhere besides home but alas i found myself sitting across from cheyenne in kui korean bbq. we skipped the bbq and just ordered the pre-prepared entrees. i tried jjamppong for the first time and it was really nice. idk why i continuously do this to myself but for some cosmic reason beyond my control i ordered tteokbokki. it's not horrible but i never enjoy as much as i know i should. cheyenne just ordered some chicken lo mein and complained about the chicken to lo mein ratio. after that we got boba, went into fresh mart and chatted in the car -- my back ached the entire time.

saturday

ade visited for the week and auntie darlene held a little party at her place to celebrate. it was a small, basic get together. i brought cheyenne along since mom had invited her during the cookbook club. most of my time there was spent with cheyenne, scrolling through tiktok fyps and barely holding myself back from talking about arcane, and playing beer (water) pong. ade also asked if cheyenne was my girlfriend

monday

missing those 12 hours when tiktok was banned and i was on the verge of getting my life together. i barely got out of bed this morning. waking up on time isn't even a problem for me it's having the willpower to pull myself out of the sheets. i skipped my music class to go try a $14 acai bowl from some place in homewood -- it was aight. i'm currently working on an argumentative essay in my english class which should be the easiest thing ever as it's about the current rise of conservatism in women's online circles but my adhd is getting the best of me. i know i'll make it through though. i'm doing better this time around so i can't let this momentum go to waste. i planned on getting some research for it done today at work but khalil radish face ass decided not to show up so i was stuck at welcome all day. but  then rita decided wanted me at circ for training or whatever. i pulled out my mac to write this blog entry but then rita materialized behind my shoulder and told me that i wasn't supposed to be doing that at work. so now i'm writing it now (4/1), at the circ desk while she's not here. she had me put a cart full of books away and that was more time consuming and exhausting then i thought it was gonna be. i've started taking miralax daily, it's not hard since it doesn't taste like hell anymore but now my farts are radioact

caitvi is still plaguing my mind.
