Unwinding is very important.
If you work at home, even more so.
The wife and I used to watch shows on the laptop before bed. Instead we read. It helps sleep. Granted it's on kindles (individual backlight, convenience) but it helps.
Disconnecting is important.
Maybe instead of pajamas and breakfast all day, I'd throw in a hike/stroll or a ride in nature.
But this did make me smile.
That's a lot of carbohydrates. We could probably all have a better day by eating less of them.

Warning: the linked article failed to suggest a Dutch Baby, a grave omission indeed. This recipe [0] is my goto, but I only use 2 tablespoons butter and cook for 20-25 minutes instead of the suggested 30-35 minutes (a burnt Dutch Baby is not Good Eats).

I wrote this article and you are correct, I have failed this community. Dutch babies are important.

Also, my favorite biscotti recipe (a proper Italian biscotti without butter):

(Skip the hazelnuts -- you will go crazy trying to peel them, blanched or not -- buy hazelnut meal/flour instead and use 8 oz of it in place of the hazelnuts.)
This is lovely! It does however make me reflect that I would do something like this on my "day off" too. And by "this," I mean I would feel the need to create something, post something, or otherwise turn my relaxation into some kind of output. Recently I've tried actively not creating and just allowing myself to relax without being conscious of it. I should note that I'm not presuming anything about the author. Writi…
I did quite well by not touching my electronic gadgets so much. Although cleaning is really tough, I feel satisfied. Actually I am thinking about quitting my job just to spend more time doing more personal things. With work, I can't get that.
What is this? Some sort of art? Not saying it shouldn't be here, but I'm not really sure how it's relevant to HN.
IT'S OK TO BE CONFUSED
