Today was all about food. Well, maybe not ALL food but that is what I’m highlighting here.

Our weekly produce box was delivered today. I was hoping it would be delivered early enough in the day I could make use out of the large amount of strawberries I ordered. And it was delivered early enough – hooray!!

The strawberries are just beautiful right now! I made a strawberry cobbler and vanilla ice cream to have for dessert after dinner – our Cinco de Mayo themed dinner of course!

For dinner I made our very favorite enchiladas from The Defined Dish cookbook. I have made many recipes from this cookbook and none will disappoint! All are delicious and have turned out great. Nothing too complicated at all but amazing in flavor.

Not my best food photography – a little messy – but so was the day and this week so far.

I think the girls – and even myself – are hitting a little bit of a slump. It is a little more difficult to get up with our alarm every morning. We all move a little slower getting dressed and busy with school and work each morning. And it is harder to keep a steady focus during the day as well. Being we still have about five more weeks of school, I have to figure out how to break us out of this slump.

When I started hearing the term “quarantine fatigue” I initially associated it with the desire to get out of the house and go places but I think it definitely fits this situation as well. We are certainly starting to feel the fatigue of each day being a lot like the day before – same type of school assignments in front of a computer, no new faces, no new voices other than those belonging to our family of four.
