Returning food to the sacred
The cooking continues this week and it’s by far the one thing that is giving me the most joy. Well… the cooking AND the colder weather up here. I love being among the trees. I need this everywhere I go, I think. We had our friend Zulma and her daughter Miss Olivia come up for […]
There are no words for the joy I have over being back in Idyllwild, ushered home by super cold and rainy weather! I’ve got home, fell asleep and then promptly woke up the next day to go grocery shopping so that I could spend the entire week cooking. It’s exactly what I did! We’ve eaten […]
This week was socially busy. Our last week in Austin had us making sure we saw as many of our friends as we could before leaving. It was fun, and though I’ve been so over eating out all the time, what made this week wonderful was that each time we sat down at the table […]
Writing these are getting harder for me. More than anything it’s the inability to forget the fact that I eat out every day. This aspect of my life is hurting me. There is no other way to say it. And I’m feeling pretty depressed about it. This isn’t to say that we aren’t getting to […]

I feel like our evening dining is beginning to deteriorate. As more of the house is packed up, or in total disarray, it’s harder for me to focus on cooking. This is compounded by the fact that I really don’t want to do much more grocery shopping as I want to go through and finish […]
More travel this week. I have reached a point where it’s just common place to be shuffling through TSA lines and riding on planes. I’ve got it down now, even the gluten free meal/snacks I pack for myself to eat on the plane. It’s an oddly nice feeling, if I do say so. This week […]
This week was madness. Once the party last week was over, I went into high gear with packing, cleaning and sorting the house. I was also on a deadline for a report I needed to write and my time was pretty tight. Jon left the island mid week to head back to California for WordCamp […]
There is a huge gap in these diary entries. The last time I shared a dinner diary was in January. Something happened and days began to blur while I was with my mom. I was eating, yes, but there were weeks on end where I only ate a grilled chicken salad. It was the easiest […]
