Ryan 3: life update

 Heyyyyyyyy guysssssss. Please forgive me for my lack of blog entries. The past 2 months have been a rollercoaster with getting a puppy so for today’s blog. LIFE UPDATE WITH RYAN😊

For those of you that don’t know, my lovely girlfriend Raechel and I got a golden retriever puppy and his name is Finn. He’s a little bundle of joy but boy is he a lot to handle. Getting a puppy was much more than I anticipated but I wouldn’t change it for the world. This little stinker man makes everything that much better and now I always have a buddy to hang with me during the day while I work. He’s almost 7 months old so we are mostly past the puppy chaos but now he’s starting to test the limits (see Birkenstock chewing picture below). We also took him to his first rocket launch last night and he hopped right in the water. Overall life has been CRAZY lately with Raechel starting a new job, Finn and many other things but I wouldn’t change it for the world. See the photo update bundle below. I promise I will make my best attempt to post on my days, love y’all!❤️

Ryan 2: Bread.

 Ahhh good evening all, welcome WELCOME to my second entry to this page. Today’s topic…………….sourdough, my latest hyper fixation. This blog is going to be short and sweet since I don’t have much time but I need everyone to try it, if you have extra time. Making a starter is so easy, throw some flour and water together and let nature do its thing. Keep discarding half and feeding it again every 12 hours, after about 5 days I had a pretty good starter and that with water flour and salt is all you need to make some amazing bread. You can make all different combinations, jalapeño cheddar, just cheddar, just a plain loaf. I even made a loaf with fresh strawberries and dark chocolate. The possibilities are endless. This blog is going to be more of a picture exhibit and you’ll have to see below some of my prized creations I’ve made and then proceed to eat with friends and family. I love y’all, thanks for reading🫶🏼🫶🏼🫶🏼

Ryan: 1

Good evening all! My names Ryan and this is my first blog entrance. I’m going to be very original on this one with the idea because I know a lot of you are wondering what my day looks like. So we’re gonna zoom out and take a look at what a day in my life looks like. Let’s use today Monday, February 24th as an example. Alright, FROM THE TOP!🎬<-(“action”)

Wake up is usually 7am give or take, as of lately about 7:10 because the snooze button is WAY too tempting. I crawl out of bed, and throw in my contacts since I am blind as hell without them. Take a stroll out to the beautful kitchen and get the breakfast in the works, on the menu, you guessed it…YOGURT. MMMM YUMMY😋. A little yogurt with some fruit and granola. This weeks choice on fruit is blueberries and blackberries. I also have a banana sometimes if I’m feeling it. Then the next most important part is my coffee, a nice little homemade cold brew with the Chobani Carmel macchiato coffee creamer (if you have not tried it you have to, it’s the shit). A little clean up and stroll over to the second bedroom aka the office and get the computer booted up for work. 

You know what time it is, TIME TO SELL SOME AIR CONDITIONING. Bright and early in the morning, 7:30am start time. Get all my programs open and then off to work. Taking some calls from 7:30-10 and then a little 15 minute break, usually consists of some floor time or doing some chores around the apartment. Some more calls from 10-12 and then it’s LUNCH TIMEEEEEE. On the menu for lunch today, leftovers (like most days). Today specifically though, we had leftovers from first watch from my beautiful girlfriend. So there was half of the farmhouse hash left that she got at breakfast this morning and I threw 3 fresh eggs on top, sunny side up of course and gobbled that down. Also has some dark chocolate peanut butter cups from Trader Joe’s, those things are bussin. Then do some more stuff around the house or relax for the rest of the break. Then it is time for, you guessed it…more calls. 12:30-2:30 and then a little 15 minute break. Again some more floor time or little side quests around the apartment, then the final stretch, 2:45-4:30. The clock struck 4:30 and my ass was LOGGED OUT ready to hit the gym. 

Came out to the living room, say hi to Raechy Raech, get all my ish together and then down to our gym. A whopping 90 second commute. My latest fixation at the gym, PELOTON. Let me tell you, I’m doing the one month free trial right now and this shit is so fun. Hop on the bike and then instructors are hyped up, the music is gas and the workout kicks ass. A quick little 30 minute ride and we are all done, burned a couple hundred calories and got a good sweat in. Take a stroll out of the gym and over to the mail room, see what advertisements we got today, throw them out and then head back up to the apartment, SIKE, Raech had a package down in the package room so we went back down there together, SIKEEEEE, the package hasn’t been delivered yet. Back up to the apartment empty handed. Now it’s about 6pm and you guessed it, it’s DINNER TIME🥘🔔😋.

On the menu for dinner, mush mash of leftovers and new meals. Raech and I had 2 different ideas so we went crazy in the kitchen. Let me set the scene, last night we made shrimp elote tacos and we had a bunch of leftover elote. We also typically grill 4-5 chicken breasts each week just to have in the fridge for whenever we want to use it. We also had homemade tomato soup in the freezer from when Raech got her wisdom teeth out. So all those little odds and ends out of the way, I made grilled cheese with a combo of pepper jack cheese and three cheese blend with the tomato soup. Raech made a quesadilla with chicken, three cheese blend and elote. LOOOOKKKKKKK at the pics below, for leftovers, this shit went NUTS. For context I just had the one leftover piece of Raech’s dilla. We are clean plate club members around here.

Now that brings us to about 7:30, we got sopranos on the tv and Raech looks and me and says “do you want to play Roblox?” Naturally, I obliged and we played some tree mansion tycoon overall about a 7/10. Now time for a sweet treat, our go to lately…the little blue bell cups of ice cream. Chocolate is the flavor of choice tonight and some more of those Trader Joe’s peanut butter cups.

After a bit longer relaxing on the couch, now it’s about 10pm it’s time to wind down for bed, first though, gotta feed the sourdough starter and the fish. Then it’s teeth brush and contacts out and reset to do it all again tomorrow. To all those that read this far, thanks for coming to my ted talk. I love y’all😚❤️
