Between now and my last blog post a lot has changed. As I was just coming to grips with post-grad life, COVID happened. Like so many others, what I planned for 2020 was thrown out the window. I was going to take weekend trips with David across the Midwest, explore new breweries, and visit friends and family. As more of 2020 unfolded and it became clear that COVID wasn't budging (in the USA) I finally accepted that I had to accept these changes. Unfortunately, that lead to me being at a loss for the purpose of this blog. I've been writing on here since 2013 and whether it be new recipes I was baking on the weekends in high school, or adventures in college, I always had a clear vision of what I wanted to share. Again, like so many others, operating within "the new normal" of the COVID-world was exhausting and uninspiring-- and lead to confusion on what this platform should be post-grad.
On the bright side, I am slowly breaking out of that funk and getting my creative side going again. I have a project idea that I've been playing around with for a month now that I am finally bringing to life on this blog within the coming weeks.
Other positives include getting to finally walk in August for graduation, the weather cooling down which means more after-work walks with David, reading in the nearby park, and grabbing some socially-distanced, outdoor beers at local breweries.
While this year has not been what I planned for, I am finally getting around to embracing those changes and sharing, again.
