I dunno, its weird...i still love food, but its not so much about actually eating it anymore...i really just enjoy cooking it, plating it, planning to cook it, looking at pictures of it, smelling it, watching others eat it. And - don't judge me - I absolutely LOOOOOVE reading restaurant menus in their entirety. I probably spend more time perusing the menu than I do actually eating. Not sure if this is some weird mental issue, but i seem to be functioning well in society so its all good. LOLOLOLzzzzzzz.

food porn.

Carry on!

Lol 😂 Soup season is EVERY season.

Very very true but I get violently hot eating it when it’s still warm outside 😂

Salmon with a Dijon chive sauce; zucchini and potato wedges from a hello fresh box. I had half a salmon portion and probably quarter or less portion of the zucchini and potatoes and didn’t finish that.

Question: Do you enjoy meal subscription boxes more or less since WLS?

I grew my own lettuce for salad! I have enough more for a salad a day for at least a week. 😳

No leftovers for me as it was stolen by a child…. Who is now eating my pumpkin seeds. 😒

Not this year but I have in the past along with watermelons, tomatoes, and peppers. I’m slowly adding more things to the list.

I'm only on the second box since surgery. I would say I enjoy them about the same so far though. I typically opt for the carb smart options since they are more in line with what I should be eating. There are definitely recipes that I would have chosen before and cannot now but I still enjoy the 'healthier' options. A meal intended for 2 adults will generally feed myself, my fiancé and my toddler and sometimes still have leftovers depending on the recipe. We get in ruts with cooking so I like having different recipes to change things up and nights where I don't have to plan anything. Hello Fresh lets you skip weeks as often as you want so it's pretty low pressure.

Drinks! Drinks! Drinks! This is an indulgence TBH

Iced skinny chai latte (made at home)

 

I found the nutrition information for the bare bones version at Starbucks. 42 g of sugar 😳 I’d rather eat dessert TBH

😂 I also sew and paint of which these are some of my favorite projects-

A nightmare before Christmas tote bag, this landscape with gold glitter, a watercolor city skyline, and these super fun pants.

Upon reconsideration...forget being neighbours. I would like you to formally adopt me please (though I'm likely older than you, so I guess I should adpot YOU 😉)

I would totally wear those super fun pants.
