Have you tried putting 2020 in rice yet? I finally did ~10 days ago.✌🏻

I spent all summer in overdrive trying to “make up” for the set backs and loss that happened during the start of Covid to only find myself drowning with still not feeling like I was doing “enough.”

Even though I’m constantly told I’m doing too much, I’m too busy and I have too much on my plate (my appetite disagrees).

So after hitting the bottom of the marinara jar, mentally and emotionally…🍅

I decided to get super SAUCEY with the universe, call it quits and put 2020 in RICE..d veggies.🍚

My airfryer wanted in on the 2020 reboot too. 

✔️Plant Based

✔️Meatless

✔️DF + GF

In all honesty though, normal daily jokes aside- this year has sucked the life out of most of us in several ways. 

Jobs lost, relationships ending, moves, illness, abnormal everything etc. 

Just be kind and remember every single person is fighting battles you know nothing of, some that go much further than they’ll ever let you in on. ❤️
