This is going to be all about food for now.
Intro to me / what you will find here: I have a special interest in food but also struggle to cook for myself as an everyday thing. Restaurants (at least around me) are getting worse & more expensive - the nice ones are forgettable and the cheaper ones are not worth it. This (plus allergies) means that cooking at home is really the only option for me now. I can and have hyperfocused to complete a super fancy 12 course meal. My knife skills are not good and show no hopes of improving. Cooking smells are typically overwhelming for me. I'm slowly figuring out my own recipes & shortcuts that are feasible for me so I can contriubte to everyday meals & not just special occasions. This is a space for my recipes, obsessing about fancy food, tips for everyday & special occasions, kitchen appliances & tools that are worth it (or not), and any other thoughts I have about food & cooking.

This is the standard holiday meal for me. I historically ate this for Thanksgiving and Christmas.
