get up and dance around the room, my eyes are on you


woke up to pounding rain today, so i fell back asleep for a few hours. rain always puts me to sleep.
unless its in s.e. asia. whenever it rained there, i either watched it or stood out in it. warm rain was suchhh an oddity.

went to yoga at the gym. tevy and sophie know a girl that says its 'against her beliefs' to go to/teach gym yoga. i wonder what those beliefs are? i'm still in a post-yoga glow, even though it wasn't as great as some other classes i've done.

came home and COOKED. so today, my name is Chef Marilyn =) made mashed potatoes with kale

yumm potatoes and kale...

found recipe online

3 medium butterball potatoes , chopped with skin on (farmers market)
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
1 clove garlic, minced
1/3 bunch kale, large stems stripped and discarded, leaves chopped (farmers market)
1/3+ cup warm milk
freshly ground black pepper
some Parmesan

boiled potatoes about 20 min, till soft. in pan, sauteed kale with olive oil and garlic. mashed potatoes with milk when potatoes where cooked. mixed in lil salt and pepper. mixed kale and potatoes, drizzled with more olive oil, sprinkled with more pepper, added parmesan cheese

actually used wayyyy too much olive oil, according to the recipe, but it tasted guud. coulda used more garlic, more parmesan, maybe some chopped nuts or something crunchy.
