Craved something with cinnamon sugar, so I whipped up this loaf over the weekend. It will likely last three days before it's gone, which I consider to be an incredible show of willpower on our part.

There's something uniquely restorative about a hot cup of tea and a few biscuits.

Tonight I'm going on my first long run after a several-month-long hiatus (I've been training on an indoor bike and doing freeweights and kettlebell cardio instead). Nervous, but excited. It's a breezy 13ºC so this should be refreshing!

A nice #quote to stoke the flames of your mind before the weekend:

I've been away at a sales conference for the past few days. Whenever I go to these events it feels like I enter a bubble and I come out of it days later, bleary-eyed and desperately trying to catch up on the goings-on in the world.

One of my favourite #baking hacks is to add 1T of molasses (be sure to oil your tablespoon first) to a cup of sugar to make some light brown sugar. 2T for dark brown sugar. Works great.

Shrimp with a garlic butter sauce might be one of those meals that I could eat every day. Serving this with fusilli, quickly sauteed peppers, and a homemade pesto.

Reading that #Polievre is going to remove restrictions on some plastics. I guess Conservatives love wading through detritus while at the beach and having plastics coursing through their bodies? Way to look out for future generations, you donut. #Canada #cdnpoli #CanadaVotes #FederalElection

I had an interaction yesterday where, as it was occurring, my brain was signaling that this person was severely lacking in empathy. I have my cold, detached moments, no doubt, but it's always kind of a jolt to me to bear witness to what seems like objectively ruthless opinions and behaviours.

This is Ripley. He was nervous about taking the stairs. May have panicked a bit. 12/10
