Episode 52: Cooking as Self-Care: Routines, Trends & Seasonal Tips

from Living Well (or Trying To) with Janet · host Janet Wang

In this second part of my conversation with Kari from Food Friends, we dive deeper into seasonal cooking and everyday meal rhythms. We talk about easy summer hosting ideas, smart farmers market shopping tips, freezer-friendly staples, and what it means to create a “food flow” that fits real life—whether you’re single, partnered, or cooking for a family. We also share thoughts on food trends like glow soup and small luxuries, and how intentional cooking can be an act of self-care and connection.
