Peanut Butter Stir Fry (including recipe)
The last couple of months I’ve had a craving for Asian food! Maybe it’s because there is hardly any good Asian food in this part of the world.

My morning work-out

Writer’s block
The last couple of months have been very chaotic on different fronts. This doesn’t really help with writing. Sometimes I sit down, ready to write, but end up staring at my screen and nothing comes out. It’s not that I do not want to write anything, but I just can’t think of it. Stress or … Continue reading Writer’s block
