Today I woke up, and promptly made a small pot of coffee. I actually need to pick up some coffee filters, as I have forgotten to do so for the last couple of trips to the grocery store. I spent my morning sipping my coffee, trying to psych myself out in order to revisit, and possibly rework my resume. I couldn't be more exhausted and frustrated by my full time job search. "There is something fishy going on", I think to myself, but I can't quite pinpoint it. I decided while I agonized over my resume that I would make a delicious meal today. I'm pretty sure every day I decide to make a delicious meal. The more delicious the meal is, the more I believe in spite of my underemployment I am actually good at something.
I found some really beautiful spinach at the Wild Olive Market in Harlem, and wilted it in chopped garlic and butter. I also made a shrimp linguine tossed in a garlic and lemon alfredo sauce as my main dish. I listened to Amy Winehouse Frank, and a few tracks from Rick Ross's new mix tape, Rich Forever while I cooked. It came out really tasty, and is a nice complement to the fabulous vegetarian lasagna I made 2 nights ago. It looks like it's Italian Food Week until I run out of cheeses...
