Do 1 Thing

Thursday is a great day to do that 1 thing you don’t want to do but also don’t want to continue thinking about doing.

It’s my first “1 Thing”! So much pressure. What I really need to do is cook. We bought ingredients almost a week ago now for a large pot of Caribbean stew, featuring sweet potato and peanut butter and onion and other good things, and haven’t made it. We went to Austin for the weekend and left all those delicious whole foods on the counter. Maybe today is, at last, the day. Chop that onion! Cook that garlic! I’ll be so glad when it’s done, I know, and I can savor the results instead of living on extended-life leftovers and frozen food from Trader Joe’s.

What’s your 1 thing?
