I enjoyed making the corned beef/cabbage/potatoes thing this last time
around. Enjoyed it as much as I normally enjoy such an undertaking.


Seems like lately (aside from that), I just don't feel like it. In
fact, I don't even really feel like eating. I get hungry, nothing
sounds good. I just hit some sandwich place or a mexican joint. The
food is usually alright, and I eat it.

This ever happen to y'all?

Sure, I don't always feel like cooking. It's one reason I tend to cook
larger portions of things I can freeze, thaw and reheat. For when I don't
feel like cooking. I also find when I've been making something like a nice
richly seasoned stock, or perhaps pot roast; something fragrant, I don't
feel like eating when it's done. I don't sample food as I go along, other
than to correct seasonings. But the scent of food cooking sometimes causes
me to lose my appetite.

Just the edge of it, and it's called depression, or something near it. If
you are not enjoying other things you usually enjoy, you might want to
consider it.

I think it's normal to go through cooking phases. There are times I
want to cook up a storm and sometimes it sounds like a chore even if I
enjoy it.

But I hope you aren't just going through a "blue phase". That would
explain the not wanting to eat anything. I hope the change of seasons
brightens you up.

Well...... (that's a deep subject)... "depression" is no stranger to
me. However, I don't think that this is the case. I'm otherwise in an
unusually good mood throughout the day (which kind of worries me
sometimes too, heh).

But this particular thing only seems to be related to food. Nothing
sounds good, nothing seems worth the effort to make.

weird.

It's a scary feeling when you can't think of anything you would enjoy doing,
eating, etc. It's been fleeting with me, thank goodness.
