Gingerbread men should not be married with kids.

I’ve entered the rearranging furniture phase of quarantine and I’m not mad at it. 😄Since my mom died last month, I haven’t read any books. Life became a swirl of planning my mom’s burial, engaging with a deluge of messages from family and friends, working full time, and caring for my son and husband. If I had a moment to myself, all I wanted to do was mindlessly scroll the Internet or sleep. But a few days ago, I was so sick of screens and I wanted to try and immerse myself in a written page, a story. I bought the book “Born a Crime” by @trevornoah. I loved the book and stayed up late so I could finish reading it. I knew “Born a Crime” was about Trevor Noah’s life in South Africa under apartheid and beyond, but I had no idea that the book would also be a deep exploration of his relationship with his mother. The universe knows what books to send you when you need them the most.Cheers to the weekend! 💜In our fridge: A leek bought weeks ago for I don’t know what, leftover white sweet potato, half a box of chicken stock, a nub of butter, tired greens, bacon. The result: Potato leek soup. #quarantinecookingChinese-style brunch: Jook (rice porridge), potstickers, onion buns. And chicken feet for my husband. Food is from Dim Sum King and Harbor City in Seattle’s Chinatown-International District. Please support local businesses as you can, particularly Asian-owned ones that have been hit especially hard.-
