One of the things I don’t like about living alone is the very important ritual of cooking and eating at home. I eat out a lot, and know a lot of foodies to support this habit, so I decided to try something new and invite my family to dinner at my place as a housewarming and a chance to enjoy conversation, food and wine with people I love. Pumpkin soup, spinach and walnut salad with goat cheese, tofu spinach lasagna (all vegan), and then good old chocolate cake (dairy necessary) for dessert. All the ingredients were organic and locally grown if possible. We played Taboo afterwards \u2013 a normal evening by most standards, but something I really wanted after such a turbulent 2002.<\/p>\n
