I don't want to brag but, my kitchen at my old apartment looked...well...NOTHING like this! Ha! But this is my dream kitchen. It's purple and sparkly and looks more like a hip bar spot than a kitchen in a home. I'm not settled in here in cloudy northern California so I don't have my kitchen yet and I want it. I'm ready for it. I've mentally prepared countless meals in it!
The whole point is this: when I lived on my own, I prepared luscious vegan meals. I miss that. I don't want to eat out, I want to cook. I want to know how much sodium is in my food. I want to control my portion sizes and save some for later. I don't want to guess if something is vegan (only to find out later that it wasn't after sitting on the toilet for over an hour). I want to cook how I'm used to cooking and eat how I'm used to eating...without questions, judgement and on-lookers...oh the cost of being "Plus Sized and Plant Passionate." I don't "look" vegan, so I get stares.
Lastly, I want to cook comfortably. I want to cook with my t-shirt and my panties on. I want the freedom of blasting Mary J. Blige when I'm cooking.
That day is coming, but for right now, I'll just write, dream and drool. You don't mind do you?
