Schwamped!


Busy day at work – need to enter all of my billable time for September. Such a pain, but that’s the way it works.

CR, my budgetmentor, joined me in an after-work toast yesterday. She was helpful in suggesting that I might think of the budget in terms of quitting spending (rather than starting a budget). Realizing that so many of my habits revolve around spending - that by “quitting” spending we’ll have healthier lives down the road – just like quitting smoking. It’s not usually urgent, but over the long run there are huge impacts.

Sometime this winter I’m going to make tofu!
Martha Stewart had a segment last year with a Japanese chef in NYC who made tofu. A hoot of a segment as this guy didn’t speak a bit of English and the translator sucked – the interview was so awkward and you could tell the chef didn’t know or care about Martha – and she didn’t care how horribly things were going – cuz Martha was that excited about fresh tofu!
Here’s a link to a vegan blog I follow:

Back to the grind – thanks for the comments yesterday – quel helpful!
