I spent the day cooking yesterday. Made a crockpot meal from on of my favorite recipes. It has chicken breasts, cream cheese, ranch seasoning, shredded cheddar cheese, green onions, and bacon bits.

I cooked the bacon bits in the oven separatly. Cooking makes me nervous so I rarely cook, but I was able to yesterday. The food came out really good. I've made this recipe a few times, this was the first time I used fresh bacon instead of the prepackaged bacon bits you buy in the store

I froze some of the leftovers because it made a lot

My anxiety has been better. I went from drinking 5-6 cups of coffee (sometimes more) a day everyday for many years. Today is day 6 of cutting back on caffeine. I've had a few iced matcha lattes over the past few days but aside from that have had no other caffeine. I'm proud of myself because normally I can't make it through one day without a ridiculous amount of caffeine. I don't know why I used to drink so much caffeine. I know my anxiety is bad to begin with and I certainly didn't need to add any fuel to that fire but I could never seem to stop. It was plain black unsweetened coffee, so it's not like I was hooked on sugar in it or anything.
