I must apologize for going AWOL for the past year or so. Things have been a little insane. I've come to realize that I bring a lot on myself because things have to be "just so" for me to be ok with it. That's called being a perfectionist and it takes a lot of work. Blogging and journaling keep me grounded, in the present, and sane. So not having done much of either of those things lately made the last year seem pretty overwhelming.
I have always felt a little bit confused about what I want this blog to be about. It's so hard to compartmentalism my life as everything seems to spill into everything is else. This blog started off as a replacement for my journal but I now realize that there are things that I'd rather not have in the web-o-sphere. Apparently I have to live in my surroundings and therefore not post anything too controversial especially about work or politics. Some people would say that's pretty cowardly but I think it's just plain smarter to not have drama in your life. So this is what I have decided --
This blog may remain mostly about socio-cultural differences and the latest micro aggressions I come up against but also food. Why food? Well, not only because the title of this blog makes that topic quite apt but also because my perceptions of food are very deeply culturally rooted. I am what I eat, right? So, I guess this blog is going to be be about food and culture mostly. RI'm thinking recipes and stories about those. And, also, just to keep people on their toes, perhaps something about the latest microaggressions I've seen. 🤗
Until next time...
