I can’t remember if it was last year or the year before, but my New Year’s resolutions were insane.
Highlights:
- Give back to the community in some vague, noncommittal way.
- Become a completely different person.
- Learn to play the accordion.
- Make sure every part of my body is never gross.
And about thirty-five more.
I didn’t follow through on a single one. I can’t quite articulate the uneasy space of striving to be a better, but creating a set of expectations that sabotages the entire process…yet I’m sure that’s what I was doing.
Not this year though.
Goals for 2018:
- Pass UK driving test.
- Become an Eagle Scout.
- Quit caffeine.
Honey-Miso Coconut Butter

- 40 grams coconut butter, softened
- 10-15 grams white miso
- 10 grams (or to taste) honey
- Mix together into a smooth whipped butter.
- This is for a friend who is lactose intolerant, but eats cheese, milk, and butter anyway, and then soils rental cars.
