A Little Xmas – Day 9

My thoughts are drifting into melancholy. Carlton was stolen from me 12 weeks ago.There is no one around to nag me about eating or telling me to “take it easy”. No one needing emails processed or online accounts checked. No one needing clean laundry or feeding. This is freedom that I am not sure I want. I sorely miss his cheerful presence and Pollyanna-ish conviction that everything will be fine.

We seem to be having more pesky sharks. So, today, I decided to do my part – I cooked up a nice big chunk of shark. Yellowfin tuna is up to $22 a pound. Shark is about $6 a pound. I adore yellowfin tuna – we call it ahi – I usually end up eating raw – like a cat. Shark – I like it cooked. Shark is seriously lacking in flavor – so I poached my chunk of shark in pineapple salsa. I enjoyed some shark along with leftover pasta and veggies. Got leftover shark now to go with my leftover pasta.

  1. Glad that you are eating well. Things will get better. They just take time and you are still young in the grief process. I’m sorry this is so hard. Love you.
