Ennui

Angel Face napping in her carseat on the way back home after lunch.

I'm not sure what exactly is going on. All of a sudden the food at my two favorite Indian restaurants no longer hold any magic for me. If we go for a lunch buffet at either one, I can hardly work up the enthusiasm to go for a second plate - and this is after a very modest first plate. Either the quality has declined, or my palate has staled.

Somehow I rather suspect it might be the latter. For a while now I have been finding it difficult to work up any interest in food; when it comes to making a decision of what to take from home for lunch, I am stumped. When it gets to be lunchtime at work, I often forget, and will check my watch around 2 p.m. to find that it is too late to bother with food anyway.

My lacklustre tastebuds are also disconnected from my imagination: I can sometimes think up interesting meals, prepare them, have the family love them, and barely be able to finish a plate. And if I try of something I think I would like at a restaurant, an old favorite perhaps, it turns into a chore to even eat half the plate.

And don't even think that any of this is translating into a svelter figure: no change on that front at all. While even my normal guilty snacking pleasures taste uninspiring, chocolate still holds a little thrill. And it is not that I don't get hungry, just that I don't like what I am eating.

Yes, I know I'm weird. Thanks for asking.

Maybe its the season, for some odd reason you are not the only one who feels like this, food doesnt appeal to me in the summer, which is good...a nicer figure would be nice.

Angel face is precious. Can't you gaze at that lovely photo for hours? I don't know what is going on with the food thing. I am frequently hungry, but I don't want to eat anything. Not even lusting after specific favorites. Maybe the season.
