Today was a lesson in perseverance. I 100% did not want to get my ass up and out the door for yoga – but, as always, I’m glad I did. Not only did I see two instructors I’ve missed but haven’t seen in months, I also learned to work around the still super sore knee I busted while not paying attention in a transition to last week. I’m glad I pushed past the gillion excuses I’d made for myself and went. My practice wasn’t perfect, but it was exactly what it needed to be.

Date night: we took a leather working class and made really cool pouches / clutch bags

Also: sorry, guys – no recipe this week. I’ve got leftover makeovers coming next week (I hope); tbh I really haven’t been inspired to cook anything good – or much more than basic sandwiches – for the last couple weeks while planning Thanksgiving festivities. Regularly scheduled recipes to commence soon.

Hopefully they still *taste* good – a pumpkin pie recipe from 17-something (recipe from Townsends) and a pecan pie circa 1914 (recipe from Tasting History)
