Today, I was remembering my Uncle Chris. He was married to my mom’s sister and was from the island of Cypress. He owned a restaurant and was an amazing cook. One time when I was about 15, he said he heard I was learning to cook. He wanted to know how I liked cooking. I said I liked it a lot, but I didn’t like cooking meat. He responded, “That’s ok! You can marry vegetarian!”
Immediately, everyone else in the room reprimanded him for suggesting I ever get married. “She doesn’t need to get married at all!” They all seemed to yell. It was very loud and dramatic.
Well I wish I could tell Uncle Chris-
Guess what. I did end up with a vegetarian. He was right. And I still do like not having to cook meat.
