Yes, eating for one. After 10 years, I'm still figuring it out. I could really relate to your story. And I'm glad the grief of losing your husband has eased for you, though I know it's something you have to live with.
We've shared our losses using this cyber connection, haven't we? 10 years for you, 7 for me. Thanks for connecting and staying connected. You inspire me with the excellent content on Literary Rambles.
Ouch. I had both (adult) children at home when my husband died (thank you, pandemic). It was a while before I started working on cooking for one. I eat a lot of stir-fries and salads, which are easier to scale. Costco doesn’t get much of my business anymore, though there are still a few non-perishables I like to get there.
I guess the keyword here is "adjustment." That necessity arrives just when you're ready to settle into dotage and comfortable, predictable ways. Life is a constant teacher.
Write what we know, that's what the experts say. Very well done. Heavy sigh.
Well, we certainly have a few wells to draw from. Life keeps filling them up.
Yeah, your story brought up a few buckets full from my well. Heavy sigh.
