I lost a molar tooth 3 years ago but one chunk of the tooth fell sideways into the gums. Every so often it gets looser but then it starts bleeding. Well today it was very loose but something is latched on. It really hurts.
Pauley and I are planning to attempt to eat a lot healthier. I found a few recipes for sweet and savory cloud bread and we both got excited. One of the recipes is for mini maple bacon meringue cookies and I swear they look amazing.
The fluffy cinnamon cloud bread with honey butter drizzle looks amazing and easy.
Another recipe I found is for a sort of sweet loaf that you can drizzle with caramel sauce. I'm really excited to try new recipes.
I had therapy today and it was ok. We talked about how I have been for the last two weeks. I told him about how Mrs Pauley's mom came over a week ago as of today. He asked how it went and honestly it was bronze covered shit. She referred to Pauley as male and I asked her to go home which is the exact moment she started crying saying it's so hard. Right. She's known me for 10 years as a trans guy. I asked her if I am a woman and she immediately said no, I'm just a guy. I said if she can respect my identity then she can respect Pauley.
She called me son when she was getting ready to go home and I was so stunned. Later when she texted me to say she got home safe, I responded "good I'm glad, mom."
My current obsessions are dry roasted honey roasted sunflower seeds and Vietnamese instant 3 in 1 coffee. The sunflower seeds are not overly sweet but they have enough honey to make me happy. The coffee is smooth and delicious.

I had a mighty craving for something very specific.
I microwaved a chicken cutlet with shredded cheese. Then I smeared some red pepper hummus on a sundried tomato tortilla. I put the chicken on the hummus and topped it with a handful of arugula and spinach. I wrapped it up like a burrito. OMG it was epic! I am a very happy puppy.

We had 2 of the marshmallow protein bars left and I was hungry and hoping one was peanut butter flavored cuz Pauley didn't like it. No such luck.
They were both new flavors and they were very interesting. One was chocolate chip cookie dough flavor and the other one was toasted coconut. We decided to try the coconut. I love the flavor of coconut but hate the texture.
I ripped it in half and I sniffled it. Oh wow it smelled like a piña colada. Si8io I took a little nibble... And I liked it so 8 took 888i8888888888 bigger glomp! So delicious!
I'm so glad I got the sample box. The only thing I didn't like from them is the lemon cake flavor. But I think we í the brownie batter flavor the most. I'm gonna get a full box of them.

I used a sundried tomato tortilla and put turkey and cheese on and microwaved for 50 seconds. Then I wrapped it up and dipped it in ranch dressing. Oh gosh it was really yummy. Then on the side I had a bunch of kalamata olives. I love kalamata olives!

Tonight Pauley asked me if I wanted some sweet potatoes for dinner. I said sure but just 1 for me. She microwaved 2 potatoes. I took my itty bitty bulldog potato and peeled it. Then I sliced it up into little slivers. I layed them on a plate and I just assaulted them with honey peach BBQ rub till my ancestors whispered in my ear "this is enough, kemosabechan". I layed them nicely in the air fryer. I set the temperature to 350. I cooked them seasoned side up for 3 minutes as a test. They were still...podgey little bulldogs but gods damnit they still have potential. So I flipped them over and cooked for 5 minutes. The smell was tantalizing. I stacked them on my plate and added a little squirt of Parmesan ranch dressing which lemme tell to joo, dees here, shugah, are some mighty fine potatoes. Sweet, savory, tender middles, crispy edges, caramelized sugars from the BBQ rub, a balanced twang from the ranch dressing but it was perfect. I found a new recipe by trial and error. I love making new food. I just wish I had friends to come cook with me.
