It tasted like home.

Yesterday was a particularly good day. Not because any certain thing happened, in fact not much happened at all. I guess it was the little things that made it a good day. Yesterday was one of my days off work, so I sat home with nothing begging to get done. The day started off beautiful, like most days in LA. The sky was blue and the sun was shinning. I started to work on another linocut for our Etsy shop (which we plan on opening mid October). Yes, I do spend my days off from my graphic design job designing. Sometimes getting lost in a design is the most wonderful feeling. Later on that afternoon Jake came home for lunch (which is always the best part of my afternoon). After that I had the most unlikely urge to finally tackle my student loans. My loans are still in their grace period, but for the longest time I had been avoiding getting them all figured out and my name and address changed due to how utterly confusing they are. But as I sit here and type, I am proud to tell you have have defeated the loan beast. By the time I was finished it had already gotten pretty late, so I decided to start making dinner. Earlier that day I had decided I was going to attempt to make my mom’s lasagna recipe. I had been craving it for weeks and finally, I just decided to go for it and that is just what I did. I am proud to say that it turned out just perfect. It tasted like home.

I spent the rest of the evening with Jake and we continued our nightly tradition of watching an episode of the X-files. I think that made for a good day.
