Cats are my special interest and seeing cat-related things when I’m out and about brings me so much joy. Hoping to share that joy!

I visited the park and observed the local wildlife—ducks and ducklings, squirrels and turtles. I also met a cute pup called Butterscotch. I treated myself to a double scoop of vanilla ice cream on a waffle cone then made my way to the library where I read on the fifth floor rooftop while enjoying a view of the city. I then went to shops nearby where I bought a new pair of sneakers for the first time in several years. Now I’m home and made myself a snack plate to hold over until dinner—roasted shallots, mango, blackberries, cherry tomatoes, avocado, and smoked salmon in olive oil.

I don’t have any complaints. I have a good job, a good partner, supportive friends and family, and the best two cats a girl could ever ask for. The weather is warm and sunny and I walked 10k steps two days in a row. Tomorrow marks one week alcohol free and I’m excited to turn one week into two. Oh and I had a really really good therapy session yesterday. I feel like I’m finally having some breakthroughs.

Girl dinner is roasted shallots, mango, blackberries, cherry tomatoes, avocado, and smoked salmon in olive oil.

Shallots tossed in olive oil, salt, and pepper then roasted in the oven for 30-40 minutes at 400° Fahrenheit
