Cooking my way out of a rut

April 30, 2026

Straight from my physical journal: “I think my being constantly on hiatus might also have to do with my relationship with food. While I love and respect eating, I’ve been taking poor care of myself during my university years. I’m a workaholic and I often get into a state where it’s almost physically impossible for me to stop working. If I’m in a rush, I end up eating leftovers out of a container. I’m not inspired by my meal, I don’t document it, and as a result, I end up with no content. I’ve been making an effort to cook more during the holidays (let’s try to make it stick throughout the year) and I’ve noticed this symbiotic link between my eating habits, my drive to make ceramics and my overall motivation. I need to feel nourished in order to nurture feel-good habits. I’m writing this as a gentle self-reminder to keep this cooking fever going and to pair my recipes with Magu ceramics along the way”. Hold me accountable as I go!
