You are cooking for yourself. Are you not important? I spend my day doing things that i love and then shower and dress and cook for myself. There is a simple pleasure in all you are saying the mushrooms that fan out, the zucchini that is blood green. Sounds like a gorgeous meal, light a candle. Pour a glass of wine and celebrate you! There is no shame in cooking for one. I do it all the time. It is a beautiful experience. I have a friend that told me do i put my prom dress on for dinner? Well, yes, i do. I am not going to sit down in my sweaty gym clothes. I celebrate me.. and it sounds like you made a beautiful meal.. enjoy it. The fragrant basil, the lovely meal. Beautifully written. Just take the sadness out of being alone. It’s a thing to be celebrated!! Enjoyed reading it xx
Lovely and wistful-making:) The pot of basil on the balcony is such a hopeful image. Thanks for sharing!
