  • I grew up in the PNW, left when I was 18, back again with family for a few years to experience the lovely recessions and got out again for the final time almost a decade ago.

    During my time there one part of my work was as a ‘forager’ for my company connecting our chefs with local farmers and artisans.

    30 years ago when I worked at the Ritz Carlton as a line cook, we could get produce from The Chefs Garden (farmer Lee in Ohio) and that was the last time I smelled heirloom tomatoes as good as those grown in my grandmother’s garden.

    I’ve been in the kitchen for almost 40 years in and outside the US and all of this experience summed up just to tell you: your tomatoes suck.


  • You sound pretty immature… ‘I’m too set in my ways.’ This is a bullshit excuse and you’re using it to lazily maintain your mental health, which-reading this isn’t very healthy.

    Any relationship you get into now is doomed because you’re lacking empathy…and empathy is something your partner helps teach you, if given the chance.

    If there’s anything my partner taught me its empathy, kindness and letting others enjoy what they like is absolutely fine- I’m free to dislike some things that other enjoy but choose not to participate.

    There is absolutely someone out there for everyone.

    This is an armchair psychology hot take, I know, and you’ll probably dismiss this, but hey…you asked.
