Food time....that isn't a declaration that I'm hungry if that's what you're thinking. What it actually refers to is how much time I dedicate to food and food preparation. As a shift worker organizing meetings and family events always requires a check of the roster to see what I'm doing that time on that day - then I can book in the event.
It has become apparent to me that I also need to have that same level of attention dedicated to my food preparation - in effect I need to allocate or roster time to shopping and cooking. It simply doesn't work for me to decide on the day what I'm feeling like preparing, cooking and eating. It is much more supportive to look ahead and dedicate some time to cooking what I need for the upcoming few days - and its also makes better use of available time. For example; cooking a batch of curry that will last a few days at one time feels easier and more supportive of me and my various routines based around the shift work. It's a new concept to have to go to that level and not just think about what to eat when I'm hungry and looking for something to eat. And it is taking time to get used to that and make it a natural rhythm....
