Young Woman Peeling Apples, ca. 1655, Nicolaes Maes (Dutch)
I’ve been thinking about food lately (actually I think about it every day, throughout the day) and how it relates to the 3S’s. In fact, food is enough of a prominent a part of my solitary life at the cottage, that I have introduced Comfort Food, a special blog under My Companions. Check it out if you have any interest in food or if you just want my permission to eat chocolate or cook with bacon fat. Of course I try to eat healthy, but would I tell you otherwise?
The solitude of cottage living offers ample time for me to try out how I want to live my life, and that includes my eating habits. If I am too gluttonous, or if I overindulge in the “not healthy” category, I have all night to sit with food guilt and also with the opportunity to clean up my mess.
So far my eating routine is working well. I don’t obsess but I enjoy what I chew and when and where I partake. Alas, I must confess that when I’m home and eating with others, I’m not as disciplined.
