Today a friend is coming over. We are clearing out my kitchen. When I came home from Eating disorders treatment in August, I vowed to clean everything out of my kitchen. For months I have been looking at the freezer and the foods within I choose to no longer eat. Like many projects we promise to get to That one has escaped me.
Yesterday the college kid who works for me moved into a new house and needs everything. So We made a deal, she will clean my kitchen and she gets to take home anything she wants that is not on my list of nutritionist approved foods. I am also giving her my old pots and pans, Tupperware, and kitchen utensils.
In The Marianne Williamson book A course in Weight loss, she dedicates a entire chapter to making a sacred space for ones meals. I have felt that I need to make the entire kitchen a sacred creative space where I am preparing food for the temple that is Barrett. With this task complete and I am one step closer to that sacred space for cooking temple foods.
I vision that food is for life and health, I vision that I will see food as a gift from the divine and I know that every morsel that enters this body has a purpose. Have a wonderful day folks! One day at a time.
