Wow, the last two months have been crazy to learn that AuDHD folks have a higher chance of being diagnosed with histamine intolerance and fuck my life, how I learnt this was when I spoke to my therapist about this. I have had to re adjust my eating habits to prevent allergy break outs!

The secrets women keep to just believe they can survive their marriage… delusional. If you already know you deserve better, you better walk out. No point living in your secrets.

Only things I’ve been grateful for so far this year? My partner who shows up everyday and is eager to be better for me and my job. Of course, my cats too. The world is becoming weird (er).

Sometimes I wish I was a man. I can just take off and leave all the responsibilities to the women at home who travel 60 kms everyday for work and come home late at night and have to figure out the household situation.

Took me only 2 years of freelancing in F&B/FMCG to make it to the founding team of a pre-seed funded retail/FMCG startup. This level of up-skilling only happens in freelancing is what I believe in. Our corporate jobs are keeping us down and tied to stupid KPIs that take us nowhere, years to promote.

Discipline in the kitchen rarely comes easily for Indian male chefs. Fucking tired of supervising the basics, how are you a chef and letting the meat strain unprotected for over 3 hrs?!

Daily sandwich bread. Perfect rise, perfect crumb. I baked it yesterday and it’s already over. Onto the next loaf 🍞

It's a covert ploy to turn India into a presidential system; GST did half of it, and now One Nation One Election will complete this. Remember, once this is done, states will become mere slaves to the will of the Union.

Today is perhaps the lowest day I’ve had in 2 months. I don’t know if I should go back to a full time gig or continue consulting while I juggle being a chef. The idea of a paycheck hitting my account every month feels so much safer but I will never be happy.

More thoughts on marriage, I do really think that it benefits only men and not women. They really cannot grasp the amount of invisible/and visible labour that goes into making their lives comfortable and will always fail at returning the same kindness to their wives. No matter how woke they are.

It has been an interesting month full of interesting cooks and sales. Made this mortadella sammie with kale pesto and hot sauce (both homemade), it’s been a slow month for sales in the kitchen but busy nonetheless. Have come to the conclusion that Jan is by far the slowest month in the F&B industry.

The best way to make sticky rice in India with local grains? Mash day old cold sona masoori rice lightly to break the grains up and then cook. Of course, idli rice would be a much better alternative but this is what I had. Turned out great with some corn and green peas (in season right now!).

People are still worried about how they will run restaurants without “trending Instagram” food. How does one explain the concept of sustainable consumption? Social media has ruined this. Off season things being available all year don’t make for good food. No matter how much cheese you smother it in!

I know this is a very normal thing and people do this all the time, but I can’t believe it’s officially the week of my wedding. One week from today I’m gonna be married. While I am happy about this, I also can’t believe I’m actually doing this. 🙈

Just one advice to everyone getting married? Do your own makeup. I promise you, it’s 100% worth it.
