It's been a long week. Not much sleep, news of countries closing down again, cases rising here in Kenya. It's been scary.
The virus has mostly spared this region. So many theories as to why. But now it's here, and people are sick.
I met a woman yesterday whose 33 year old roommate just passed from it.
The vaccines have arrived, but it is the one that may cause blood clots.
So I do what I can do.....
I just continue to go deeper into my health.
I made this delicious lunch today. Very easy and quick.
Roast a butternut squash with a little olive oil and zatar spice. In a bowl mix garlic, lemon juice, and tahini to drizzle over when done. I like to sauté my pumpkin seeds, but you can just put them on raw. Lastly, I add a few fresh pomegranate seeds.
Our health. Our most prized possession.
I miss the community of voices from my other site. Not too many have found me yet here, so if you have please drop a comment and tell me how are you faring in this crazy time. What do you do to keep sane? To laugh?

Hi! I do enjoy your new site, and this looks like a very delicious healthy butternut! To answer your question, to keep sane we go on mini camping breaks, as we are lucky enough to have quite a lot of freedom to travel up here in Northern Botswana!
Hi Sabrina,
I have been locked down a lot over the past year due to a medical vulnerability. However not being able to go anywhere has allowed me to develop a new skill, woodworking.
I have never worked with wood before but just fancied having a go and now I really enjoy it, I’m not the best but I am learning, thanks to the many 'youtube' videos. I have made a couple of things for our home, a shoe rack and a small gin bar for my girlfriend.
So even though this past year has been hard I have developed a new skill.
I hope things don’t get out of hand there and you all get vaccinate.

Hi Sabrina,
Oh gosh...sorry to hear that Kenya has the virus now. Please do keep safe!
What do I do to keep sane? Self-compassion❤, mind management 🧠(CBT) deep breathing😤, meditation/prayer🧘♂️🙏, moving my body (Exercise & Dance) 🏋️♀️🕺, listening to music 🎧🎼and art. 🎨
BTW-I love the new site. I love this design.
I will keep Kenya and your family in my prayers.♥️🙏
Blessings,
Chris
Tahini 💓💓 gosh, I haven't had that in years.
What do I do to keep sane? I just annoy people by leaving comments on their social media account. I mean who else am I going to talk to? 😁
