hello! my first entry i never know what to say when it comes to making pages. it's always "hello!" "welcome!", since i literally have no clue what else to put there. anything else doesn't seem right.
anyway, this week was very eventful last saturday, i went to go see the evil concert/rock opera at black cat and it was so ... Incredible... it was the first time ive been at a live show since 2018 and im so happy it was this one. i also went to a local ukrainian cafe that day and met up with a friend. admittedly i felt pretty awful that people were just no longer wearing masks- i'm disabled and immunocompromised but i still want to be able to do things safely. it's stressful that other people can't be indoors for like a short period of time with a piece of cloth(?) over their nose and mouth- it really isn't that hard but... well, the united states is not a very disabled-friendly country. other than that i had a good time. there was a used book sale and i got some books that have been sitting on my wishlist for a long time! the book i'm (about to start) reading is one of them.

after the concert!

on sunday i had a housewarming and it was wonderful. i baked a lot and cooked several things for the first time. i also had a good turnout and saw several of my good friends that day was great. i cooked a fully vegan main dish for the first time! rainbowplantlife's red lentil curry was so delicious- everyone who ate it loved it so much. the same went for my vegan matcha chocolate chip cookies and my not-so-vegan pinwheel cookies! that was the most amount of Anything that i've cooked and baked in one day. cleaning up was horrible haha

my forays into cooking! zucchini bread not mine

the rest of the week was pretty uneventful, i'm waiting to get my room cleaned of mold and repaired and spent the early half of the week twiddling my thumbs about it. on wednesday i went to eat with my old roommate and ate poke + mochi donuts! omg it was so good, i hadn't eaten out in a while since moving to my new place so this was a great thing. i'd never been to that area before and feel really jealous of the folks who got to live there. we then went to lotte market and dropped off a care package for a sick friend. today (thursday) we went to a pupuseria and i got like sooo many pupusas. that's one of my favorite food items and i love it sm!! we then went to her house and met up with her friend and their dog. i baked vegan ube sugar cookies topped with nonpareils(?) and they were such a hit! i miss spending time with my friends. as we get older it becomes harder to see them often. i wish we could all live right next to each other again.
anyway, that's all for now. see you soon!
