Once again, Kelly Leveque’s amazing cookbook makes my week easier.
It seems counterintuitive to meal prep when I feel like going to bed, but this is one thing that makes life so much easier for me. Having the food prepared on Sunday means that Monday through Friday are easier and no one goes hungry as I scramble to find stuff to feed everyone, and it also causes us to eat poorly, which pretty much guarantees that the processed food and excess salt will ignite a flare. So, this week the smoothies are prepped up and ready to go in the mornings.
Up next – lunches and dinners. The Virtual Book Club then bed.
Originally intended to simply focus on book reviews, over time, KaliDesautelsReads has morphed into its own entity.
I write about issues that are near to my heart, be they political, feminist, motherhood, mental health, or, as the title holds, books.
A thirty-something Canadian woman in my mid-thirties, I have been "super married" to my high school sweetheart since 2006, and together we have two crazy, clever, kind, hilarious, wonderful kids.
My first book - How Not To Blog: Finding Myself, One Post at a Time is available on Amazon (in eBook formats for you clever tech readers, and paperback for those of us who love that new book smell!)
I have tried a podcast - it's still on Apple and Google Podcasts - but writing is where my heart is.
My life changed dramatically when my husband was diagnosed with Stage 3 cancer in 2018, and I am now a writer for a leading Canadian Cancer Non-Profit.
I am lucky enough to have a family that loves me and pushes me to be my best, even if it is outside of my cushiony comfort zone. I have a village of friends that nourish me, mentally, and spiritually.
Welcome to my thoughts. Sit down. Stay a while. Enjoy a cup of coffee!
