A self indulgent guide for eating your way to the life you desire.
I love words that make people uncomfortable.
The ones that feel like szechuan pepper on your tongue. Tingling, numb, the wait do I like this? feeling and then inevitably going in for more.
Words like vain, selfish, disgustingly hot that land with tension to some ears.
I love to claim these words with my full chest knowing that their meaning changes based on your relationship to them. There’s something deeply empowering about making peace with words that make Puritans shudder.
I am undeniably alluring. Hot af. Obsessed with myself. Not only aesthetically but because I exude the energy of the pleasure I allow myself to experience.
That energy carries into my kitchen and has done more for me than any nutrition plan or traditional health guidance.
Living this pleasure is one of the most delicious feelings of all time. I want you to be able to feel it too so I thought I would teach you the hot girl kitchen commandments that make it accessible .
Bom proveito.
I. Hot girl sets good conditions to be well fed.
Hot girl gets to be easy, breezy cover girl because she considers her future self.
Her being well fed is the inevitable outcome of being well resourced. She has things/people/systems she knows she can lean on that support her nourishment.
Tap into the different feelings of getting home from a long day of running around, overstimulated, with absolutely nothing to eat, vs. knowing you have an accessible path to feeding yourself.
That second you has way more capacity to handle whatever happens in the rest of the day and make it look good.

Nothing quite kills the desire to cook like there’s no spoons left to stir. Delegate everything you can to the dishwasher and keep it moving then when it comes to sink dishes remember that doing the dishes is not half as bad as thinking about doing the dishes.
Have a go to playlist that breaks up stale energy and gets you excited to cook.
Keep your pantry stocked with building blocks that make a lovely meal: can of big butter beans, tinned fish, grains, a bit of cheese, crunchy seeds, etc.

II. Hot girl is gassed up about her food.
Like attracts like. Deliciousness begets more deliciousness.
Naturally, you have to eat things that give off the loveliness you yourself want to embody.
Respectfully the hottest person you know is not eating rice and chicken on repeat with a protein shake to break it up. Their salads are not filled with a bunch of raw veg that include flavorless, watery tomatoes way past their season. They are not afraid of dessert.
In my head what I see is a big worn wooden table in the Mediterranean. The sun is pouring down. Colorful ceramics hold a variety of gorgeous ingredients. A spectrum of different colors, textures, food groups all coming together to make a layered bite that captures the full palette.
That’s sexy.
Although our lives may not look like that (yet), you can drip the essence into your day to day.
Prepared breakfast burritos with golden toasted tortillas. A banana bread to snack on throughout your afternoons that week. A pesto in your fridge that makes everything it touches taste better. Even just reading those words I can feel my digestive tract turning on like mmmmm I want that!
Make sure the foods that get your body excited are part of your week. You don’t have to suffer to the life you desire. You get to enjoy yourself as you invite more and more of what you want to the plate.
Btw inside the Cycle Syncing Kitchen you can find recipes for those things that were created to include ingredients that benefit your menstrual cycle and overall health.
