"The Pursuit of Happiness" posts are changing (at least for this week, so let me know what you think). I am super proud of myself for making 267 post in a row. Considering my bedtime is equivalent to that of a 5-year-olds, remembering to post something happy each night can become a bit of a challenge. I knew the day would come when I missed that one post and things would get off track. Last Wednesday was that day, not to say I didn't have anything to write -- I have gotten in the habit of pondering my POH post throughout my day to have at least a few words to share -- but my exhaustion got the best of me, and I passed out before I realized I had not posted. The next day was an extremely late night out for me, and again, I was too exhausted to post by the time I got home. Maybe it's the late nights and somewhat early mornings, or maybe it's the 15 day streak of rainfall (almost a record) followed by unusually cold weather and then more rain, but I have not been able to shake my fatigue. Please tell me I am not alone.
Any-who, I was planning to post make a single post for those few days and then get back on track with daily posts but then I started thinking, why not just do a weekly recap. I saw no reason not to, and thus I am trying it out. This first one is a little extended, as I wanted my week to end on Friday, and I did not think to do this until last Friday was over. The recaps also allow me to potentially expand a bit, so you are not get a rushed and boring 4 word post because all I really want to do is go to sleep. Check it out. See what you think. Let me know if I should keep it or go back to the old way. Just remember:

Wednesday (268)
Sometimes my life is a bit of a conundrum. Case in point: ramen. I love ramen. There are days I get a craving that feels like it comes from the soul and will never be quenched until I eat buckets full of ramen for breakfast, lunch, and dinner. I recently discovered this super easy ramen recipe that I whip up at home. What's the problem then? Sometimes even the easiest recipes are too much for the busiest or laziest days, and traditional ramen from restaurants are pork based. I don't eat pork, which means no ramen for me, sad face. That is until I discovered my local Whole Foods now has a ramen counter with vegetarian ramen options! I am slightly in love with Whole Foods as well, so Whole Foods plus made to order vegetarian ramen. Oh my goodness. I had to try it right then (even though I had a shopping cart full of dinner stuff for the week, but that wasn't stopping me). I got a spicy vegetarian bowl to go. They made it. I went home. I devoured it. It made my whole shopping trip worth it, and pretty much my whole night.
