From Psych Ward to Epicurean: A Foodie Transformation

Alex was a real foodie like his sister and I became one too.

it was the antidote to the state hospital. Someone at the psych ward in California where I was carrying Ian said, “If you eat in a place like this you will never eat again.” That was like me at the state hospital. I learned to enjoy the food there. Then when I got out I couldn’t find satisfaction in ordinary food. I was eating out at diners and McDonalds. Until I met Alex. I adored his food.

he was an Epicurean and it applied to his sexuality also. I didn’t always appreciate what that meant for me. Or Ian.

I used to say all the time that it was always “open season on Lynne.” Now I am horrified to see how it was open season on Ian all along more so in ways that were kept secret from me and meanwhile I was being held for the blame.

praying the Memorare to St. Mary has n this regard.

I know that Roku and Sanctu will attend.
