Food, sounds like sth not worthy to talk about. Its just eating. No, it isnt. It was like this before meeting Julcia, and came back again now when She is not here. But with J was always sth important, eat with someone beloved made from food a masterpiece.
After dead of my Mother, when i became alone, i didnt care about food. I usually ate plain sandwiches or bought at shop ready to eat things like hot dogs. Always thought that there is no point to spend half an hour of cooking just to eat in 5 min. Beeing with J changed everything. When you have someone you share everyrhing, cooking became very nice pleasure. Now it came back to the past. I again started eat just sandwiches and i will not cook for sure just for myself. My belly had just this 14 months of fest.
Julcia changed totally my habits. I started eating a lot of vegetarian foods, vegetables, less meat, what before Her i couldnt suspect about me.
We usually made our shopping at Biedronka. We made togethet list, but our saturday weekly shopping looked usually the same. Firstly at first fridge we took soups and hummus, from the other one cabbage, tofu, salad and if it was - also falafel. Many months it was out of stock, but on last weekend it came. Julcia bought it and was so happy, but then finally before leaving room and me we just ate two pieces in salad of Sunday by the river.
Then Julcia took care about fruits: bananeczka, apples, oranges, mandarinka, grapefruits, kiwi and on summertime also ananas. In the same time i collected vegetables: broccula, kalafiori, potatoes, carrots, tomatoes and pepper. Just at the beggining we were buying also zielone ogorki but then stopped it. From this line we took also bakery - cztery pory roku rolls for me and poranna fitness roll for Julcia. Then rice cakes and piadina. We went to the back of the shop and there sometimes we bought cheese and meet for me.
On the other line we took ciecioreczki, corn, peas, ogorki konserwowe, whick J as an Italian didnt know before but love them. Then Julcia insisted me to buy a lot if sweets for me. She was always more worried about me than Her. On the same line, when we finished at home, we took a coffee, which J loved very much. Sometimes also kasza and rice. On the second side of this line Julcia took cornflakes: plain and honey one and always asked me if i need any milk, yoghurt or kefir.
Then we went to last part of the shop, where were Julci one and only sweets which She eats - favourite one became milk, which at the beginning She was scary to taste, because J doesnt drink milk. In last few weeks we took also herbatniki. Then we went for Julci water - gazowana zywiec zdroj in small bottles, for a juice. Last few months king was an orange Tymbark, which also at the beginning Julcia was scarried to try imagined thats to sweet, but then became favourie one. After this left just a beer for me. Julcia usually drank few swallows at home, Her favourite one is Namyslow. At last place we took our sunbites, which we always ate in the evening or during playing our games or during watching moovie.
On the other shops we made usually small shopping like meet at top market, cornflakes and chilli ogorek at carrefour, rolls, things for love and soups at zabka.
Our breakfast was always the same: made by Julunia mix of cornflakes for both of us and additional sandwich for me. And two coffees. After usually came Winston, first to J, then to me.
For lunch on working days we made ourselves sandwiches: Julcia for me with meet or hummus, I for Julcia with cream, tofu or hummus. With ogorek and pomidori, and pepper for J. If we are at home we ate pizza or salad, or piadina/rice cakes with hummus.
But the most important dish of the day was always dinner. Prepared together. Cooked together, eaten together, feed each other, from common bowl.
We ate piadina/rice cakes with hummus, and added salad/spinach, ogorki, pomidori. It was completely new taste which I didnt know before.
We ate soups: pomidorowa or pumpkin or marokinska or sometimes soups from zabka. Julcia usually added cieciorki, tomatoes, sometimes tofu. After soups, never during we ate or fresh cztery pory roku roll or rice cakes.
We ate pizza. Or Julcia prepared on Her own making cake and then cook it in microvawe, then add tomatoe sauce, pomidori, pepper and corn, and for me also meet and cheese. And even so plain pizza from microvawe was source of big pleasure and smile for Her. But often we ordered pizza from Telepizza and I went to collect. It was always the same: vegetariana bez sera i bez cebuli for Julunia and hot habanas for me. For Julcia tomatoe sauce, for me garlic one. It was unreal pleasure to eat it. Last time on thursday 15.04. Julunia as Italian loved this pizza, both from microvawe and from Telepizza. She never didnt need to much to feel happy.
But the King of our dinner was also salad. Consist broccula, kalafiori, brussels, potatoes, carrots, pomidori, ogorki, pepper, cieciorki, cabbage, corn or peas and sometimes tofu. Prepared together, eaten from one bowl, feed one another. Someting absolutely unforgottenable. Masterpiece.
Sharing food with Julcia was something unreal beauty. I never thought that making food, spending time on cooking can be sth worthy. But seeing happy face of Julcia eating sth She liked was unbeatable. Will stay always in my mind. And still.hoping that we will eat a lot of time more together.
