I know, it's been... 3 months? No, I haven't abandoned blogging. This semester was busier than I had anticipated. Classes, internship, and a senior project that would not end kept me more occupied than I would have liked to be. But three months, 100 pages of senior project, and a semester of straight A's later, I'm a college graduate and finally on vacation.
When I came home last Thursday I came down with a dreadful fever/stomach virus combination. As a result, I ate nothing but plain (gluten free) pasta and eggs for four days. As I was finally starting to feel better, I got my wisdom teeth out this past Monday. I am now on strict orders from my dentist to eat nothing but soft foods until next Monday. As I've been going through all of this I've been feeling listless. I came to realize the other day that part of why I've been feeling this way is because I don't have grocery lists to think about or meals to plan. Because food is such a large part of my life, I feel kind of lost when it suddenly isn't a priority.
I'm saying all of this with a purpose. I want to take my blog in a slightly different direction. I'm a college graduate and my future is uncertain. My ventures with food will be an attempt for me to make sense of every day occurrences and the problems that arise with being out of school and finding my way in life.
But for now, it's Christmas Eve. I don't personally celebrate, but for all who do, happy holidays! I'm excited for the traditional movie and sushi tomorrow. Goodnight!
