Spaghetti Carbonara 🍝

Carbonara is seriously one of my favorite pasta dishes and believe it or not, it’s SO easy and quick to make.
I always substitute with bacon and whatever Parmesan cheese I have in the fridge. You can also add a bag of frozen peas and carrots. Mushrooms are very tasty but it’s the creamy sauce that makes the dish.

Ingredients:

1 pound spaghetti
6 slices pancetta or guanciale or bacon, chopped
2 cloves garlic minced
3 eggs
1 cup parmesan cheese or pecarino ramano, shredded freshly ground black pepper

Check out this TikTok video for a visual on how to cook.

ENJOY 😊

Venting! False promises on support post partum

I just had my second baby in April. I had severe PPA and PPD with my first. In order to not go down that hill again, I talked with my mother who promised to support me by watching my toddler the first three months which are critical for mental health so my husband could take the baby and I could sleep during the day and he could cook for me so I eat. Based on this promise of support, my family moved cross country back to my hometown. Ever since I got here my mom has been MIA. She has multiple jobs 7 am - 7 pm (doesn’t need the money, even then I offered to pay her more than her job which she refused because this is her passion). She keeps saying she wishes she could help me but then when it’s time to help she won’t take any time off from her jobs?! Her jobs btw are working at a day care. She would rather take care of strangers children than her own grandchild. It’s driving me crazy and I’m starting to get very angry when she texts she wishes to help because obviously it’s false promises and fake love. I’m so disappointed and upset. She only “helps” on her time which is a few hours on weekends even then she has other children in the house she’s also watching. I’m so sad and my mental health is declining from sleep deprivation and constant toddler tantrums. My husband can’t take the baby so Im doing baby duty and cooking which is so draining. Whenever I say that to her, she says she raised me and my brother (7 years younger) alone so I should do the same. I don’t understand what her motivation is, does she hate me? Is her job that important?

Where the shoes on the other foot

Hubby says some wild things and most of the time I just brush it all off or quickly change the subject. Tonight he asked me randomly something about how many times I want oral sex and I was busy looking at something on my phone and misspoke and said twice. Which he took as me saying I had it twice today. Once with him and then with someone else. This man actually believes that I either went somewhere or had someone come over to our place to give me oral sex. First off, eew!! That's nasty to me. I'm 5 months pregnant. Why would I do some shit like that? We have a healthy sex life. We have it every day. Why would I need someone else when he gives it to me every day?? It just doesn't make sense. His drive is way higher than mine and to be honest I can do the job myself either with my fingers or my rose toy so what would I need someone else for?? It's insulting for him to even believe that I would do something like that especially when he's the one who's been on dating apps talking to random women. So he's giving me the silent treatment tonight. Wonderful. Smdh.
