At this moment, I'm feeling a touch of the malaise I've mentioned, lately. It comes and goes, and is always mild. I think it's a result of both stress and overdoing chores. I've tried to just relax, but when I do I get very bored and/or antsy. This morning I'm making bialy, which is something I've never made before. They are a type of roll, usually with caramelized onion and sometimes poppy seeds in the middle. They're commonly found in New Jersey grocery stores, and I believe were a precursor of bagels, which are made slightly differently. Their origins are from Poland, primarily in the Ashkenazi Jewish neighborhoods. I like food history. I plan to serve them like bagels, with cream cheese. Hubby has some lox. I prefer to eat such things with sliced tomato. I thought about preparing avocado, but I don't want that to dominate.

Hubby and I are just waiting and waiting. I hope that when "stuff starts happening" a bit that we go into a more excited mode. I'm not wishing for hypomania, but I sure good go for a little more satisfied/pleasant mood.
