If you have felt the pressure to put meals on the table that adhere to the expectations of others, even when you could barely function in life, this episode is for you. I’m joined by Amy G.S.A. Brooks of Wandering Ames. She’s one of my favorite content creators who posts about the OK Kitchen. There is more to life than succumbing to societal pressure to prepare perfect, five-star meals. Join us!
Show Highlights:
● The beginnings of the OK Kitchen and the forming of a new community
● Food insecurity and diet culture during the pandemic
● Messages surround us everywhere about how we feed ourselves and fuel our bodies.
● Thinking about preparing food for three meals every day seems like never-ending labor!
● Meal plans can be a helpful tool–but should be set aside when needed.
● Wasteful in food or wasteful in being unkind to ourselves? Which is worse?
● Be willing to break the rules: dinner doesn’t have to be a big meal or a fancy production, and food plans should be simple and flexible.
● The point of meals is to get what our bodies need.
