I'm Tired, Let's Eat!
Who am i, why am i here?
I'm going to keep this short. You're here for recipes and as someone who has spent hours scrolling through food blogs to find the actual recipe at the bottom after the author reflects on the hidden traumas of their childhood and then finds Jesus, I don't want to keep you long.
But you deserve to know who is feeding you, so I will give you the short version. I am a nonbinary queer in a house of other queers. We each work or otherwise have something that's keeping us from committing to the kitchen for more than an hour.
Cooking is hard, but we all need to eat. This is a collection of recipes that I've found somewhere that all four of us can agree upon.
I hope you enjoy these, I'll try to make them as simple as I can and if I find more I'll post them here for you!
