nothing that love, chocoloate and laughs can't fix

I won't get too much into this but let's just say I had a bad day. It didn't help that I wasn't feeling "right" mentally. After work I knew I had to find my comfort zone otherwise I would be in my crazy daze all night! So first thing I did was pick up Riley and head to the grocery store. On my comfort list: cucumbers, lemons, chocolate cupcakes, fudge rounds and milk. My all time comfort snack are cucumbers in squeezed lemon juice with salt. yummmm. Then we returned home and I changed into pjs, ate all my fatty foods, took medicine and we watched several episodes of The Office. I feel "normal" again.

How do you get into your comfort zone?

Here are some "behind the scenes" photos of yesterday's video shoot with the yetis & little bigfoots!!

    Staging and taking the pictures is sooooo important to get right.

    Good luck, they are adorable.

    I agree with the title too..love, chocolate, and laughs does a lot when you are upset. My hubby is my daily de-stresser!

  4. I'm going to the Post office and the grocery store and plan to gte some comfort foods myself. I love cucumbers in Greek salad and eat that usually several times a week, but I think for me the spicy stuff in there and the feta cheese is what I like the most.

    I kind of wish you had "gone into" it more because it left me feeling like there was a big gap between what happened to make you so upset and how you dealt with it; not enough information.

    Currently, I'm trying to share more about myself in my blog. That was my intention when I started it; to get into deep thoughts, ideas, experiences; an inside look into the life of an artist but going further than the art itself, pretty much uncensored, but for a year or so I didn't have the courage to do that. I think having started to do that shows me as a more three dimensional person than when I was not and overall has been a positive experience.

  6. I absolutely love your baby yetis, Stela! There's a play I love called "On the Verge" where these Victorian lady explorers meet a baby yeti that tries to scare them. Your little guys make me thing of it.

  11. cucumbers-lemon-whaa?

    You'd better blog about that specifically, I need to see what you're talking about. Comfort food that is healthy? I dunno.

    I LOVE the behind the scenes. Next I'm sure we’ll be watching the bloopers. You crack me up.

  12. hahah I think the only downfall with my sliced cucumbers with lemon juice is that I add TONS of salt. It's super sour but it's soooo good. But it's not good for the teeth because of all the lemon. haha so I only treat myself every now and then.

  13. That sounds like a fun night!! Boyfriends are capable of working wonders when it comes to lifting spirits.

    My comfort zone definitely involves pj's too. Soft, worn-in pj's. The rest of the equation consists of brewing a fresh pot of coffee, curling up on the couch with a blanket, coaxing one of the kitties to come sit in my lap, putting on a movie/picking up a book, and burning some plant matter. If ya smell what I'm steppin' in. And there we have it, my perfect way to wind down.
