Happy Sunday

I got up and felt better than usual, so I decided to make vanilla bean cupcakes. I had a yellow cake mix that I added rum and buttermilk to instead of all water, as well as some vanilla bean powder. Of course, by the time I had baked, cleaned up, and done a load of laundry, I was low on spoons. *sigh* At least there is soup for dinner already made (woo, leftovers) and I can pop a loaf of French bread into the oven. There's also a a bag of salad mix.

So I'll just lie down for a while and then maybe read a bit when I get up. I had a soak in the bath to help with the aches from moving around; that helped. I have some reading queued up, and later an episode of some media or other might be in the cards. Depends on my mood. For me, it takes some energy to watch media--I have to be in the right mood for the tone of the show or movie. I get really drawn in by the visuals and music; it can be quite a visceral response, and my mood can be affected for hours or days. I can't watch a great deal of depressing stuff. Books do have an instant effect on my attention (I almost always read a book in one sitting), but I can read faster, or skim, if there is something unpleasant. I slow down to savor, or re-read passages.

I do want to see Captain Marvel--I'm going to try to go Monday or Tuesday to a matinee. I might re-read some comics before then.

all about me, food
