Twisted -self care
Every morning I drive east into the sun.
At traffic lights I put sunscreen on the backs of my hands.
This morning I realised that this is self care,
Very rare for me.
I need to do more of this....

My children (pets) cavoodles/maltese, tabby cat and a few noisy in-love budgies.
Hobbies, love to cook!!
I'm on a writing journey, creating words and storytelling is a wonderful distraction away from some days when storms roll in unexpectedly.

Do you paint?
Learning to cook anew after becoming vegetarian, well, almost vegan!

Re: Twisted -self care
Yes @Holly24 .... I paint.
I have vegetarian / vegan times in the year .... religious thing ..... and yeah, it has been a cooking adventure. There are a lot of ancient recipes that are vegan. Nuts used to be used for thickening soups and stews before flour became a thing.

Re: Twisted -self care
Delicious vegan cheese recipes on youtube - amazing discovery of using nuts in a whole new way!
Cauliflower steaks have become a favourite, with a splash of coconut oil, water and lots of spices.
Do you have a favourite thing to paint?

Re: Twisted -self care
Not really @Holly24. I do landscape, still life, portraiture ..... everything really in terms of subject.
