Leia o post em Português Hi, everyone! I know I've been a bit absent and I really want to be more present, but sometimes I lack inspiration to post. Even though I don't show up much, I'm always following the communities and your posts, you know? I like to see what everyone is sharing. Today, I decided to talk a little more about myself and how I deal with anxious days. Today was one of those days, you know? Hail Mary. Only for the consecrated host! Being anxious is so bad. The end of August, and the month is almost over. For over a year now I've been facing some little problems that are taking longer than expected to solve. I woke up restless, tried to read a little of “1984”, but who said I was able to concentrate? I sent my dog to take a bath and, with not much to do, I decided to go to the market.

I remembered what my therapist always says: when anxiety hits, we have to change the focus of our thoughts. I know it's not easy, but it doesn't hurt to try, right? One of the things that helps me is cooking. I don't cook because I have to, but because I enjoy it. And today I decided to make a ground beef roll! I went to the supermarket and bought: - 500g ground beef - 200g ground bacon (I ground the meat and bacon together, three times, so that it was well mixed and soft) - Mozzarella cheese - Ham - A small packet of onion cream And voila! I started my best therapy: cooking. I mixed the onion cream into the ground beef and bacon, and I also added a green seasoning that my mother sent me from Piauí (who knows, maybe one day I'll post the recipe here for you, it's perfect). Then I opened the parchment paper, put the meat in it and started rolling it out with a rolling pin. But my friend's house didn't have a rolling pin, so I used a bottle of wine! Hahahaha! | ![](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23uFZybxRZert94N6D27Pwmw7EfCWzGZ3kv3V1baihW8jY8LPjhhxaBfPqeFkF9owpCUF.jpg) | ![](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23xyb9QEXv1sGX9w2xLKvaY6mgbSsGCN4YVWks8VL3GW4X1CTR1P2UNnH9DGpdJWY7mWo.jpg) | ![IMG-20240827-WA0015.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23w2wvzXNd68y3wNFa9Zw7LugrzeSd9wEqk9xQLm4Q4B3vtEjYsNryNJ62NAn556vUmt1.jpg) | |-|-|-| | | | | When I was starting to assemble the Swiss roll, Elsa came back from her shower and started “helping me” with that look on her face that said “will there be anything left for me?” Then I added the ham and cheese, rolled it all up and drizzled it with olive oil before putting it in the oven at 200 degrees for about 30 minutes. |![IMG-20240827-WA0017.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23vsV9YYy6QkEF5rQLrFaWQx2qmmZmjgF8iFtKib6b4KDRz7VSskUT9yb2hDsTRsyhcRA.jpg)|![IMG-20240827-WA0020.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23tvpeXNZRgvs3htN61vu5wRYHzXcbztHXJkGyTewcdMyu2k3q9i2q1qgtGRDrQAUnghH.jpg)|![IMG-20240827-WA0021.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23xAg4hjrQebXwCuzMe3usiGcQRJLFGSysMX2Qsa4ujpoLgeKBbZejPmrTN6WE6gArVT6.jpg)| |-|-|-| | | | | The bacon I put on top was all that was left, as I forgot to buy more to cover the roll.

I wish everyone a great week and ask you not to give up on me. Sooner or later I'll be more active around here! So, one more piece of advice: when anxiety hits, go cook! It's a therapy that helps and also yields a good meal! --- --- ---

Sei que ando meio ausente por aqui e queria muito ser mais presente, mas às vezes me falta inspiração pra postar. Apesar de não aparecer muito, tô sempre acompanhando as comunidades e os posts de vocês, viu? Gosto de ver o que todo mundo anda compartilhando. Hoje, resolvi falar um pouco mais sobre mim e como lido com os dias de ansiedade. Hoje foi um daqueles dias, viu? Aveee Maria. Só pela hóstia consagrada! Ser ansiosa é ruim demais. Final de agosto, e o mês já tá se acabando. Faz mais de um ano que venho enfrentando uns probleminhas que tão demorando mais que o esperado pra resolver. Acordei inquieta, tentei ler um pouco do “1984”, mas quem disse que eu consegui me concentrar? Mandei minha cachorrinha pro banho e, sem ter muito o que fazer, decidi ir ao mercado.

Lembrei do que meu terapeuta sempre fala: quando a ansiedade bate, a gente tem que mudar o foco dos pensamentos. Sei que não é fácil, mas não custa tentar, né? Uma das coisas que me ajuda é cozinhar. Não cozinhar por obrigação, mas por prazer mesmo. E hoje decidi fazer um rocambole de carne moída! Fui ao mercado e comprei: - 500g de maminha moída - 200g de bacon moído (moí a carne e o bacon juntos, três vezes, pra ficar bem misturado e macio) - Queijo mussarela - Presunto - Um pacotinho de creme de cebola E tcharam! Comecei minha melhor terapia: cozinhar. Misturei o creme de cebola na carne moída com o bacon, e ainda acrescentei um tempero verde que minha mãe mandou lá do Piauí (quem sabe um dia eu poste a receita aqui pra vocês, é perfeito). Em seguida, abri o papel manteiga, coloquei a carne e fui abrindo com um rolo. Mas na casa do meu amigo não tinha rolo não, usei uma garrafa de vinho mesmo! Hahahaha! | ![](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23uFZybxRZert94N6D27Pwmw7EfCWzGZ3kv3V1baihW8jY8LPjhhxaBfPqeFkF9owpCUF.jpg) | ![](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23xyb9QEXv1sGX9w2xLKvaY6mgbSsGCN4YVWks8VL3GW4X1CTR1P2UNnH9DGpdJWY7mWo.jpg) | ![IMG-20240827-WA0015.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23w2wvzXNd68y3wNFa9Zw7LugrzeSd9wEqk9xQLm4Q4B3vtEjYsNryNJ62NAn556vUmt1.jpg) | |-|-|-| | | | | Quando eu estava começando a montar o rocambole, a Elsa voltou do banho e ficou “me ajudando” com aquela carinha de “vai sobrar algo pra mim?” Depois coloquei o presunto e o queijo, enrolei tudo e reguei com azeite antes de colocar no forno a 200 graus por uns 30 minutinhos. |![IMG-20240827-WA0017.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23vsV9YYy6QkEF5rQLrFaWQx2qmmZmjgF8iFtKib6b4KDRz7VSskUT9yb2hDsTRsyhcRA.jpg)|![IMG-20240827-WA0020.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23tvpeXNZRgvs3htN61vu5wRYHzXcbztHXJkGyTewcdMyu2k3q9i2q1qgtGRDrQAUnghH.jpg)|![IMG-20240827-WA0021.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23xAg4hjrQebXwCuzMe3usiGcQRJLFGSysMX2Qsa4ujpoLgeKBbZejPmrTN6WE6gArVT6.jpg)| |-|-|-| | | | | O bacon que coloquei por cima foi tudo o que restou, pois esqueci de comprar mais para cobrir o rocambole.

Se vocês pudessem sentir o cheiro virtualmente, iam ao delírio. ![IMG-20240827-WA0029.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/EoK6JsrzQuN1ytDJ1g7mgXuRwmgfqBbyCmH3qyub4CuJ2uVpU95zJu1F6gxCES5Eq4a.jpg) Aparentemente, o rocambole não ficou dos melhores, mas é só aparência, porque ficou muito suculento! |![IMG-20240827-WA0032.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23uQtiL2T8UsK7DZU9FSBVZMgXhvnmXiWfZ9UifmA4muBR5YTdFLmJqsPhcMtEYmtNAJC.jpg)|![IMG-20240827-WA0034.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23xAgN3ScP4cnyJDusujv7upEkhtKuT8FVHcB4P9DrSJsKaqbvyxsEaV1qF15VCV3cppP.jpg)|| |-|-|-| | | || ![IMG-20240827-WA0035.jpg](https://files.peakd.com/file/peakd-hive/jkatrina/23uQtWKcRxPw8G6KJRn27AZBa1QGyXCYemc79grrpx5FaR2rndf9LwmZNaJ5CmJp6ojPn.jpg) As fotos não estão das melhores porque ainda estou aprendendo, mas quis compartilhar mesmo assim. Desejo uma ótima semana para todos e peço para não desistirem de mim. Uma hora ou outra eu vou ser mais ativa por aqui! Então, mais um conselho: quando a ansiedade bater, vai cozinhar! É uma terapia que ajuda e ainda rende uma boa refeição! --- --- ---
