Quality time New Year’s Eve edition

December 31, 2023 questions

I answered these questions while having a New Year’s cake for breakfast. Tomorrow, during breakfast, I want to answer the questions of January 1, 2024, while eating the other half of this cake.

What habit do I want to leave behind in 2023? And why?

I aim to break the habit of consistently seeking outdoor activities for play and fun. Instead, I want to cultivate these joys indoors. This shift is motivated by my strong need for enjoyment, possibly due to a lack of healthy fun and my temperament. I find it beneficial to have quick access to indoor activities, like creating little celebrations on my plate. However, I’m still open to spontaneous🎉 outdoor activities, such as go-karting, as a bonus.

Another habit I want to change is creating a feast on my plate without considering portion control. I’ve noticed that when I feel happy I tend to overeat, and I want to avoid feeling nauseous. Establishing a reasonable portion beforehand seems like a practical solution.

To only anticipate, prepare💙💜🧡, and create a happy place on festive (holi)days. I aim to cherish more small moments, whether it’s a story💙, music💜, or enjoying delicious food🧡 that complements the moment/season. I notice that by doing so, I create more space to experience joyful moments. Anticipating, preparing, and creating a celebration on my plate🧡, the surrounding elements and trying to enjoy the present bring me greater satisfaction. I feel calmer the more I surrender to that process.

Which memories from 2023 make me feel proud and/or grateful? And why?

I take pride in my ability to create culinary delights using simple resources like my pans, my blue plate, and my burgundy red plate repeatedly. Initially, I believed that a high-paying job was necessary for such experiences (experiences that meet the need to have fun and play to my heart’s content), but I’ve realized that my existing resources are sufficient. Along the way, I figure out which tools I need and then research their prices, which can sometimes be surprisingly reasonable. I even recently found a white plate online, costing no more than €0.60!

And these memories make me feel proud too.

I am grateful for the valuable information I discovered to enhance my cooking skills. Various sources have enabled me to create customized recipes, find inspiration, and troubleshoot cooking challenges.

And these memories make me feel grateful too.
