Brunch! Avocado toast with mushrooms, sauteed cabbage, sweet potatoes and arugula salad - inspiration (though it took me a lot longer than 20 minutes 😂). I never had sauteed cabbage before, but will again! I skipped the curry powder and added chile powder to the sweet potatoes.

Baked sourdough blueberry muffins to Blue Train this morning. Needed to add 6Tbsp (butter)milk to get the batter a good consistency. Tossed (frozen) blueberries in cornstarch and 1/4tsp cinnamon and folded in at the end. Baked 30 minutes. Pretty sweet, could cut the sugar by a tablespoon or two.

📚 Today’s library haul:

📚 I’m trying a themed set of books on consumption for my first library run of the year:

• Scorched Earth by Jonathan Crary
• Elements of Taste by Benjamin Everett
• All Things Are Too Small by Becca Rothfeld
• The Ugly History of Beautiful Things by Katy Kelleher
• The Joy of Missing Out by Svend Brinkmann

I’m working on a series over at my main blog that I’ve been working up to for the last year or even two 🦾 I tried to write it back in March, but didn’t have a good thruline. It finally came together under “the mindset of more.” I’m psyched about the most recent post, on taking control of my reading.
