new years resolutions

1. wash my face everyday and stop touching my face(my hands get oily and it only makes my skin worse)
2. make the switch to vegetarian ( not trying to go vegan this year but vegetarian is a must)
3. grow out my hair
4. get contacts
5. go home at least once.
6. spend more time with the man aka the vampire aka the honey badger.
7 . more exploration of chicago.
8.maybe get more fit. ( i hate working out but i have to figure out something)

"The saving graces were the cocktails and dessert. The mixologist did a great job on corps revior #2, the anise was there but did not kill the other flavors. The hazelnut panna cotta was probably the closest one could get to a true panna cotta with vegan substitutes, and the pairing with orange, chocolate, and brittle was absolutely delicious. The brittle by the way, was also a highlight. Totally buttery without an oz of butter"

the above is a recent review from yelp.com
making it all seem worth it.
i love those moments. where realizing people are enjoying what you cook or bake makes it seem worth all the bullshit that comes with working where you do.
so I just got a second job at a health food/ vegan/ vegetarian cafe.
another 20 hours a week to go with my 24-30 hrs i'm doing at karyns.
i'm super excited about it to.
i mean. the atmostphere is completely different it feels like a team where there aren't any secrets or shifty pettiness or passive aggressive tendencies.
its a newish start that might make me increasingly tired but i feel more excited than i have in a while. btw i have to start taking more photos of my food.
