Why I’m Not Cooking. A Catharsis.

Um… I thought this was supposed to be a food blog, with like food, and stuff. Yeah, I did too.  That’s how it all started.  I so very much identified myself as a home cook for all of my adult life, which coincidentally, was spent with my boyfriend of 12 years.  Well, we broke up in April and I’ve been struggling to get back in the kitchen ever since.

I live alone now (with Owsley, my cat, of course), and let’s face it- cooking for one is just not any fun. There’s something so lonely about cooking for myself, I find.  Most nights now I eat bread and cheese, wash it down with red wine, and call it a night.  It’s a major lifestyle change and I really only find myself eating an actual dinner one or two nights each week.  That’s why the number of recipes I’ve posted has dropped significantly and I have mostly been reviewing food products, restaurants, etc.

So, not to spill my guts with how sad and lonely I’ve been as of late. This shall pass.  I know I’ll be inspired again… especially once I get a new camera (kind of let the ex take that special little device…).
