If we can’t converse, we can at least eat!

Since we started dating Sydney and I have spent a great deal of time and energy learning about the pitfalls of communicating as a couple. We’ll continue posting snippets of those miscommunications for your entertainment.

But I wanted to post – for the record! – that we have found something where each provides a perfect complement for the other: eating. When I make pizza, Sydney prefers the inside and I the crust pieces. So we have different-looking plates that clean up all of the food and make us both happy. Similarly, when Sydney makes casserole, I prefer a bit more of the cornflake-crust part, and he a bit more of the gooey middle. So when it comes out of the oven we butcher it until we’re happy with our plates.

If you ever wonder why we post so often about food, keep in mind that it currently provides an affirmative function for our relationship while we slowly relearn how to communicate (this time with emotions and such thrown into the muddle).
