Recently I tried some new recipes, most of which I found on Pinterest. I liked them all, so here they are!
-Lentils with garden vegetables, avocado, walnuts, and hummus
-Avocado and egg toast for breakfast
-Japanese cucumber salad (went over well at a party)
-Banana-oat smoothie
I'm also trying to stay more organized this year with time management at home as well as at the office. Several things have really helped! It's only 3 weeks into the semester, but I'm hoping some of these habits will last.
-Committing to work 2 hours a day on research/"heavy-thinking" related tasks, mostly in the afternoon, at my office; doing my best to not work on nights and weekends
-Tracking my TA/work hours and working on it in chunks throughout the week
-Using the SelfControl app while I'm working on my laptop
-Bringing lunch to work, and keeping snacks and easy to assemble foods on hand (like hummus, wraps, sliced cheese, and veggies)
-Keeping a jar of espresso powder at my office (this stuff is the best, good for traveling too) and avoiding coffeeshops
-Bringing my gym clothes to school and heading straight there after work
-Making to-do and grocery lists on the weekend (on my fav mini-legal pads)
-And finally, keeping my bathroom and bedroom drawers more organized with the help of some of these
