Today Katie asked me if I wanted to participate in the ritual called cooking. I grew up in a culture where cooking happened every 5 minutes, so it is not something that bores me. However, becoming vegetarian has made me, for a reason not fully known at the moment, respect food more and celebrate it more. So I helped Katie with cooking today, albeit very little.
She wanted to make Tomato Bisque Soup and Grilled Cheese Sandwich. For me, anything with tomato used to be a very doubtful element in life. Too much of tomato for me used to be a big no no, and now I’m going to be having to eat Tomato soup? I was actually hoping the grilled cheese sandwich would turn out to be the life saver for me.
