Attempts at making pesto with zuchini

 Pesto Pasta Paleo, the Half Ass version. 


I saw THIS online, and was 
"Damn, I am hungry, I could make that"
So........



  we bought a Veggeti. It....sucked. Make sure the veg is dry, I honestly spent more work veggeti-izing the zucchini, I burned all the calories I would get from eating it. 
  I forgot the fresh basil, so I used the MSG standby from KNORR. Creamy pesto. 




   I wasn't sure if the zucchini was done, but I cooked the shit out of it, and overall it isn't bad. Need more zucchini. 


  Would do again.

Not for validation, but just because I WANT to help.  Is this fundamentally who I am? Someone who wants to help others feel good? Good about tthemselves? Good about life? Empowered? And yet, some days I get mired down in the "am I making a difference?"  But you know what? It doesn't matter. If it makes me happy to share, why would it matter? I found myself lost on the internet  and came across this https://markmanson.net/life-purpose  I think I will read and write on it later today.....

I had to stay awake for the experience. I'm glad I did.I don't live a life I need to escape from,but I love new experience.  The nuts were warm in first class.  No joke.  And my ginger ale was served in an actual glass. I had 3 magazines to read from and remote for the TV which was only 1 foot away. It was luxury.  Did I mention the blanket? And the earbuds? And the warm hand towel,lightly scented with lemon? Who sleeps through that? Even if they have the room to actually stretch their legs,short though they may be.(My 6'4 husband leaned over and told me he was ruined for first class. I can't blame him. I loved all the room,and I didn't actually need it like he did) Anyways,I digress.  Radical self acceptance. Today,I learned how afraid of abandonment I am. Well, I always kind of knew,I just never really felt it so acutely when not in trigger mode. I could really feel this deep,subconscious fear,a fear which made no sense whatsoever ever in my curren...
