Ophelia (Introverted Lurker)

A small batch of tomato sauce in a pot. Next to the pot is a small bowl filled with ripening tomatoes and a white plate with a wooden spoon resting on it. The sauce was made with 1 pound of fresh tomatoes, a small onion, garlic clove, olive oil, basil, and a bay leaf.

Tomato sauce 🌱 🍽️

I used Brandywine and Ace 55 tomatoes with a small onion, garlic, basil, and a bit of beet powder (for color) from the garden. I only have a few ripe Romas and San Marzanos - not enough to make sauce yet.

I recently switched phones and I forgot to re-add the app.

But I'm missing The Apothecary Diaries and I need to get through my LNs so I can get ahead of the story for a bit.

This dress from this year's Cannes reminds me of uncooked menudo. I'm craving menudo now. #cannesfilmfestival

The Apothecary Diaries is probably one of my favorite anime in recent times, and the 🐸 scene was something I wasn't expecting. (Only watching, hoping to read the LN, have a massive reading backlog😅)

I love how the app is categorized. Seeing the flowers blooming over in the gardening section makes me so happy. Also flowers blooming.

Superbowl can't come soon enough, just need to wait another week.

Driving through Alabama this morning has been weird. Road rage in front of a cop(no one got pulled over), a pastor crossing in front of us on a HIGHWAY, and then smiling and waving at us while crossing. I already don't like Alabama or the south, but it's so tiring going through this region.

I've been really getting into football with my hubby, and we're just hoping the eagles win this coming weekend against the commanders. I've never felt so excited about #football in my life. #PhiladelphiaEagles

This week definitely started oretty rough. Even the articles on The Guardian have me stressed out, so my solution is to stay away from IG as well and continue gaming and focus on my skincare ✨️
(Skincare is one of my top goals for this year.)

Of course I picked a good day to sleep in, I told my hubby that if the Switch 2 was getting announced today we would've found out about it late, lol.

Being OTR means I gotta keep myself busy. Usually it means gaming, reading, being the weather/traffic reporter. One of my goals this year is to finally get my adhd under control so I can study new things and keep reading my massive backlog of books.

Recent days have been a struggle since it's so hard to avoid politics and current events to an extent, but I will not post any of it. I just wanna enjoy my hobbies and return to learning coding. Mental health is a top priority.

I've missed playing ffxiv, I stopped playing a year ago due to reasons and a bit of burnout included but I've been eager to return.

I've been pretty busy catching up on Infinity Nikki since it's my first gacha game and it actually keeps me busy in the back while my hubby drives.

Realized I haven't been here in a few weeks, but I noticed this morning that ffxiv is doing their login campaign and it's a great opportunity to make a setup while OTR since I don't have a stable internet connection yet.

It's the evening here in Florida, had a load that needed delivered to here, and this morning after 5am I was able to witness a rocket launch of Cape Canaveral. The trail that it leaves after a launch was so beautiful.

One of the cool things to experience being in a truck is you get to see the most interesting things across the country. Yesterday I got to go to the Sullenberger museum in Charlotte (CLT) were I got to see the plane that landed in the Hudson River.

November truly went by so quickly, and now I have to fully face the wrath of Christmas before dealing with my birthday again.

I'm not much of a social media person (only have Instagram) but I wanna fill my feed with current journey of being a passenger Princess while my love truck drives.

It's pretty awkward trying to type up something because I want to sound more sophisticated or something, but that's usually the issue for being neuro. (Still trying to understand that word)

As someone who doesn't enjoy the sun much, this is a nice welcome during those amazing cold months.

I guess I should add a bit about me (if anyone looks), love to game, read, food, photography and FFXIV.

Watching that boxing Netflix thing atm, second match is actually good compared to what I saw in the first one. It might be legit.
