In the Air

So obviously I haven't written every day, mostly because its like I'm writing to myself. But that's fine, its been years since I've kept a journal so basically this is it. And because I'm bored most of the time (outside of work) and my half-hearted blog will be a hobby.

Anyways, I am literally half way through a fligth from LAX to JFK. I know internet on planes isn't a new thing, but it still impresses me every time. That is all.

Welcome June!

I started this morning with a “proper” Rabbit Rabbit and a resolve: to write something every day.

Today I had the good fortune of driving from LA to Palm Desert… and back. I have finished a 9-disc 10-hour book on tape in 3 days. I would’ve finished a lot sooner, but sometimes I don’t think the calm British reading voice is an appropriate companion to my road rage. I still can’t get over being 13 miles from home but still 45 minutes in the car.

But my long-distance driving is shelved for a while! Boo-yah! This was cause enough for a celebration this evening. I found an avocado “ice-cream” recipe that was heavenly and decided to try it out. I did not use an ice cream maker, just my trusty new cuisinart. And I didn't eat all of this at once... although I could have... Obvs.

The gist:

1.5 ripe avocados

1ish frozen banana in chunks

1 cup almond milk

Sweetener

Sadly I’m not a cool (lame?) food blogger with step-by-step recipe pics, but something tells me that’s not far off (the pictures, not cool blogger-ness). Instead we can pretend that this is my beautiful concoction. In real life I layered it like a parfait with blueberries and sliced almonds. I don’t mind never eating guacamole again. (This is probably a lie)

On my radar this month:

- Vegas for a day, slathering on extra moisturizer tomorrow and hitting da strip!

- Barcelona for almost a week including a much-needed day off. Plan on spending it at la playa and Zara Home

- The Sales Period (need to start stretching, hydrating, getting extra sleep)

- Practicing my Spanish more than the 10 minutes before Spanish class on Mondays

- Volunteering at Hollywood’s Farmer Market, I hope to score some kale.

I better quit now to keep my daily resolution, otherwise I'll reveal all my June gems too soon!
