Some days, I really feel like I have my shhhhh all together, if you know what I mean.  Henry is super happy, I’m keeping the house all tidy, I’m getting my work done, and I’m even showered and wearing real people clothes.  Other days… not so much. 

I can’t help but feel totally flustered when I look at the clock and realize it’s 9:00 PM, I’m still wearing my pajamas, someone smells (and it’s me), I haven’t eaten since noon, and there’s spit-up down the back of my shirt.  This, I know, is just part of life with a baby, which is totally fine.  But still… I much prefer those pulled-together-supermom kind of days.

It might’ve been a flustered day, but Henry and I did manage to build an IKEA bed (he sucks at using the screwdriver) and take the dogs on a long walk.  In the dark. 

Hey, at least it got done, right?

Dinner was kind of a mish-mash – although I did make an excellent side dish; I’ll share the recipe tomorrow – so let’s flashback to last night’s dinner, which was really tasty and worth sharing.

Southern-style:

Steamed collard greens (made using this method)

Cast iron tofu

Roasted potatoes and carrots

A lake of Bone Suckin’ BBQ sauce

Bob Red Mill GF Cornbread
