Career

The job hunt goes reasonably well. I've had at least one interview every day, usually multiple. Finding something to like about each different place helps me feel enthused about the process.

Finding some good productive hours building some basic skills. French on duolingo, python and html/css on codecademy. Started in on a Google Analytics course because hey why not.

In lieu of baking, I've been doing hella salads. Two stand out exceptional recipes as follows. Both make big batches.

'Detox' Salad - A Whole Foods Clone

Ingredients

    1 head cauliflower

    1 head broccoli

    1 medium size package of carrots

    1 big handful of parsley (More or less to taste)

    6 oz of sunflower seeds

    6 oz of toasted pumpkin seeds

    2 cups raisins (Or other dried raisin-ish fruit)

    Juice of 1 Lemon

    4 tbsp good olive oil

    Salt, pepper, garlic powder to taste

Instructions

    Put everything through food processor, pulse into little bitty pieces.

    Allow it to sit in the fridge for a half hour or so after for best taste.

Greek Chickpea and Kale

Ingredients

    2 cups cooked chickpeas

    1 big bundle of kale (Your preference on variety, just remove the stems)

    1/2 red onion

    1 medium package of carrots

    5-6 roma tomatoes, with pulp removed

    1 1/2 cups tzatziki

    greek seasoning, to taste

Instructions

    Remove stems from kale (Unless you're a masochist), chop all veggies into bite sized pieces.

    Mix well with chickpeas and tzatziki, top each bowl with greek seasoning.

Gaming

Stellaris is fun, anybody else ever play?

BIG EDITSKI

I got a job. Same title as before for the first 6-12 months, then a bump to managing a few other folks.
