i don’t get why most people tend to dislike something before they experience it, and have their minds made up that they will never enjoy it. a single meaning of life for all humanity is a question that i don’t care to ever answer, but it seems like “enjoyment” is pretty high up on the list of reasons to live. if you were to write a list of things that you enjoy, would it be long? or short? my list is really long and that’s cool to me because i don’t feel like i ever get bored. to put it as plainly and most applicably as i can - when something occurs, id rather be happy about it than sad about it.

this is what my world looks like

i made fresh spaghetti with the pasta roller dove got me for my birthday and dove made this wild sauce with fennel anchovies pine nuts raisins shallot, some cinnamon to warm it up. on top of the spaghetti and sauce was some bread crumbs, and on the bread crumbs, parsley and garlic, and of course some parm to top it off. i don’t even think about how weird a dish sounds anymore. i just eat it. two plates because dove couldn’t finish which is not clean plate club behavior, so i had to come through and finish it to avoid a mark on our reputation.
