[kavehsfoodlog]

hello!

i'm 29 and (sorta) newly-diagnosed with gerd. i come from a hispanic family so it's felt devastating to lose over half the cabinet of spices and treasured family recipes, BUT i want to re-shape how i'm viewing this to be a positive, holistic sort of approach. so that's what this blog is for.

why i chose kaveh: i love him. hes the ultimate bbg/comfort character for me. he helps me cope with this new journey i'm on.

recently made the decision to stop weighing/measuring food for my sanity so even if i write something like oz/c/etc it's a guesstimate
