Dinner

Tonight, dinner is causing me to panic. I haven't been able to latch my brain onto anything that I'd want to eat and now I'm really hungry, which sets me up to binge. "Water, water every where, nor any drop to drink." (Samuel Taylor Coleridge)Except for me, it's food. There is plenty of food in my house. Sausages to go with my homemade tomato sauce. Eggs in any myriad of ways. Actually--that's it! I'll do scrambled eggs with truffle-infused olive oil. That's delicious and a treat.

Eggs are amazing and a frequent go-to meal for me. With my husband out of town I often think that it isn't worth cooking for myself. It's a horrible thing to think because I should believe that I'm worthy of good, healthy food. I'm worthy of spending the time it takes to put together a yummy meal. But I don't often think that. Only in rare instances (when I'm on a kick to get "right") do I eat as well when he is gone as I do when he is home. I don't, as often, have trouble making something for dinner when I'm making it for him. But I have a hard time when it's just me.

But, speaking of just me...I've finished my yogurt (I love dairy and it has lots of protein, so it tides me over when I'm hungry and need a snack--like tonight, when I just successfully averted a binge by having 5 olives, a Greek yogurt, and blogging), so now I'm going to go make my scrambled eggs. Ooohh...I think I'll have an avocado on the side too.
