Eva’s Byte #260: Small Measures

Thinking outside the box and discovering viable alternatives to survive and thrive.

Most likely of little to no significance for those who graciously read this blog, small measures provide solace to me while self-isolating during the COVID-19 pandemic. In this together, traversing common ground, perchance you’ll relate through your own newfound consolations under siege—thinking outside the box.

This week’s small measures of note:

1. Choosing to make even fewer supermarket runs to replenish perishables, I sought an alternative to cow’s milk which could be purchased online. My blind-buy, never-before-tasted dare resulted in the bulk purchase of 32. oz cartons of unsweetened hemp milk. Besides the health benefits, I love its creamy, frothy consistency. I’ve even acquired a taste and craving for the “putty” flavoring.

2. Low maintenance, de rigueur of the stay-at-home day, I threw all caution to the wind by not blow-drying my hair after a washing. Lo and behold, it brought out my spiral curls without sacrificing volume. A healthier alternative to frying, eh?

Along the writing front of my Contemporary WIP, I’m at the tail end of chapter 46, hunkering down to nail dialogue, one of my pet peeves in striving for perfection.

My sincere appreciation if you’ve read this far. May you take solace and joy in life’s small measures to survive and thrive.
