Welcome to Chaos !!

Did everybody survive Valentine's Day? Don't feel bad if it wasn't social media worthy, most of those are just smoke screens anyways.
My V Day went like this......woke up at 9 30, forced myself to get up by 9 45. AM that is.
I hate waking up because I have to, I am not an enthusiastic morning person that jumps out of bed. Washed my face, brushed my teeth, I showered the night before so no need for a shower. Got a London Fog, chatted with the barista. Got to work a little before 11, left at 5. Got a dessert I like that goes by a very fancy name - Boccone Dolce. Got home. Made dinner, pasta and leftover green beans from yesterday. Ate, relaxed, went for a walk. Later on had the Boccone Dolce with some pink champagne and raspberry sorbet.
Played backgammon. Watched some show on Netflix called Love Is Blind. Showered. I am going to solve a Wordle now, read then sleep.

I am excited over today's Wordle outcome. I got "impressive" after I solved it! Yeay! New one tomorrow.



It is mid afternoon and me and the girls are still in bed. There will be a walk in a bit, it is sunny and nice outside and later on at 9 pm I need to work. Pet Pack tomorrow, I have not participated with them since December, I took a break from that and worked on Sundays instead.

My new thing to do, Wordle! How does Tati spend a Friday night? Getting excited over Wordle. I recently found out about this, I am sure it's been around for a while but you can't always be in the know of everything right away. Anyhow.....it took me a couple of attempts of Wordle to solve it and today I managed to do it on the fourth row, my best so far. Tomorrow I can try again, since there is only Wordle per day. Try it yourself, it is fun.



Now it is time to catch up on news.....everything from the latest in Ukraine to the latest here in Portland with some gossip in between. Then sleep. I loooooove sleeping.

So Paul Stamets, a mycologist and somebody that goes to Burning Man.....and owner of Fungi Perfecti, sells these mushroom supplements. I am mostly interested in extracts from a mushroom called Turkey Tail. Read up on the benefits of the Turkey Tail mushroom. And it is safe to give to dogs. Of course do NOT give your dog raw mushrooms, get a safe and approved extract, do not give more than the recommended dose and talk to a veterinarian if you are unsure or do enough research on your own to get educated on the subject.
If you have never heard of Paul Stamets before, look him up.
And look up the benefits of Turkey Tail mushroom extract.
Since years now I have heard of microdosing psilocybin. And I know people that do that. There is a method to microdosing, do your research! Don't just start gobbling down psilocybin. Not a good idea. Respect the sacred mushrooms. Paul Stamets has a method to microdosing called the Stack Method but there are other methods as well.
I believe that the cure for everything is provided for us in the wonderful world of nature.

I live close to a food cart place called The French Quarter and lucky for me they are several meal options there that I like.
Mexican, Indian, Thai, a place with only desserts and a plant based cart called The Food Wagon.
I usually pick up something from there once a week. The other day I had a plant based burger and it was DELICIOUS. Seek out new culinary experiences and try plant based!
I so do NOT miss eating meat. My lattes and London Fog's I have with oat milk.
Yummy! I am already looking forward to my next burger from there.
I look forward to my meals and get super excited over food. Food is one of life's great pleasures.

Today was a day I had been looking forward to, it was a day for some tea time with friends. I love having afternoon tea. We went to The Clockwork Rose Tea Emporium (my second visit so far). Time flies by when you enjoy yourself.....we were there for a little over 3 hours.
Table ready!



I had Earl Grey tea (as usual).



Scones with clotted cream, jam and lemon curd.



Pretty teapots.



I ate alllllll my food.



Eat Me (that is what is says on my necklace).





We had a great time.
