“Food” is quite possibly the most diabolical prompt ever offered in this wasteland between Thanksgiving and the winter holidays. Well played, Linda.

Food is…tricky right now.

Thanksgiving brought a mind boggling combination of both too much and too little food. Too much of some, too little of others anyway. Coming out the other side always requires a reset on food behavior but that reset has been challenging.

I’m not cooking, I’m barely food prepping, and now we’re in the throes of December. Who’s got the emotional fortitude let alone — I don’t even know what the rest of that sentence is supposed to be. Things are just A Whole Freaking Lot.

Resetting my food stuff feels unwieldy at the moment. Let’s see where we go from here.


Linda hosts Stream of Consciousness Saturday. This week’s prompt is “food.” Use it any way you’d like. Have fun!
