One constant in life from the day you’re born is the need for food and drink. Clearly, what you eat and drink changes a lot from infancy to adulthood but the need is always there. And admittedly I have not always had a healthy relationship with food. Over the course of my life it has been a source of nourishment, a reward, and an absolute pleasure. It has also soothed, provided instant relief, caused illness and was often the enemy. 

Even though I initially went to school to be a nurse, it’s really no surprise I ended up in interior design. I come from a long line of creatives and do-it-yourselfers. Growing up there was always a project going on at my house or at the house of one of my extended family members who lived nearby. 

I have to admit, that for most of my life, my well-being had more to do with how thin I was and not how good I felt. And I can’t remember a time my self-image wasn’t defined by a number on the scale or a tag in a dress. It’s so sad and so wrong on so many levels.
