It’s been 3 months since I went on an SSRI for a It’s been 3 months since I went on an SSRI for anxiety.

I had this moment yesterday while I was sitting with my grandma, brother, and nephew. This feeling of pure bliss. And also realizing how far I’ve come in my anxiety journey.

We were eating lunch outside. The food was great. The view was perfect. There was a slight breeze. And I was in awe of thinking about my grandma hanging out with her great grandson.

I thought about how I was feeling a year ago right now. Anything outside of my usual life routine in nyc often times resulted in bad anxiety.

I didn’t realize how much my anxiety had taken from me. But then I have a day like yesterday where I can *feel* just how different I feel.

If you’re struggling know that you’re not the only one 💗 And it does get better. Little by little.

Can’t Cook, But I Sure Can Microwave

view from my lunch break at my parents apartment

it is unreal how the weather went from glorious and springtime yesterday, to horrendous and dreary today

I'm seriously obsessed with this view

It was the perfect thursday.

—-

The weather has made me super lethargic and lazy on this Friday night. It is my first weekend of the semester without traveling or having a guest sleep over all weekend, so this night of relaxation feels well deserved. I am also about to enter the final week before opening for my show, which means all night rehearsals followed by 8 performances. Before I know it, I’m boarding a plane to California for spring break…..

But anyways.

Cooking is most definitely not my forte, but tonight I made a delicious, protein chocolate chip cookie IN MY MICROWAVE. so easy, even I can’t mess it up.

 

Here’s the link to the original recipe Thanks to Peace Love and Oats. I made a few variations for what I had in my kitchen.

My cookie contained:

1 T of Flour (I currently only have white flour in my apartment)
1 scoop of vanilla protein
1/2 tsp of baking powder
1 packet of stevia
1/2 tsp vanilla extract
1 T apple sauce
1 1/2 T of Almond Milk (what I have in my apartment, any milk will do)
couple of chocolate chips.

First mix all the dry ingredients in a microwave safe bowl except chocolate chips
add all the liquid ingredients except milk and stir
add the milk and stir until it is liquidy
add the chocolate chips

microwave for 30 seconds, or more depending on what consistency you want.
I like my cookies doughy and gooey

the result? an odd looking, but delicious and gooey cookie mess

Next time I will probably skip the stevia, I’m not a huge fan of how it tastes when baked into things. Even so, this cookie was delicious. All my chocolate chips melted in the bottom for a delicious treat.

and there you have it, a protein filled dessert from my microwave

Come with me for a solo evening to go see The Outs Come with me for a solo evening to go see The Outsiders: A New Musical on Broadway (#ad)

As a former theater major who now works in the book industry, I was especially excited to see this book to musical adaptation on Broadway. I remember loving the book in middle school and I was absolutely blown away seeing the musical. My jaw literally dropped at some points, I was so in awe. 

 @outsidersmusical is now playing at the Jacobs Theatre on Broadway. Be sure to get your tickets at outsidersmusical.com or via the link in my bio.
