After 7 weeks of having one dinner party a week, I realized that I need to treat myself to a feast for one. When I cook for others, I usually don't end up eating since I'm busy preparing and cooking. Also, since I'm cooking for others, I usually limit my cooking based on their preferences and restrictions. Now, it's time for me to free myself to indulge in my own cravings!
