Cooking Your Way Through "Eating Alone"

I have not done a solo episode in a while but this topic came back around for me recently and I felt like it needed its own conversation. Eating alone carries so much stigma that people will genuinely stay in relationships with people they do not even like just to avoid sitting at a table by themselves. I have seen it. I have lived parts of it. And today I want to talk about why we need to stop treating eating alone like it is something to be ashamed of. Because here is the thing. Eating alone is not always about loneliness or a breakup. Sometimes you are solo traveling and a table for one is just the reality of the trip. Sometimes your kids have grown up and moved out and now it is just you in that kitchen and at that table and you have to figure out what that looks like. Sometimes you simply want to be alone and your own company is enough. All of that is valid. Today I am getting into the real positives of eating alone and what it can teach you about yourself when you stop apologizing for it. On the culinary side I talk about what it actually means to cook for yourself because that is different from cooking for others in ways most people do not realize. I also get into how to choose a restaurant when you are going solo because nobody ever really talks about that and it is worth the conversation. Solo episode. Real talk. Come eat alone with me.
