Explaining the Idea

Life often inspires the foods we eat and love...if you take a walk through the forest and you see a bush laden with juicy berries you may start to think about blueberry pancakes, muffins, and much, much more.  A trip to the beach and the salty air and you may suddenly find yourself thinking of fried fish, or scallops & shrimp.  A cold winter's day...a hot pot of soup.  A hot summer's day...a crisp cool salad.

When life gets hectic and we forget to take the time to connect with the earth and the environment around us we find ourselves consuming the the processed, prepackaged foods our hectic, disconnected society provides. 

In the same way has life inspires food, so does food inspire life.  A BBQ brings family and friends together for a time of fun and sharing.  A picnic basket adds romance to your relationship or closeness to you children.  A new food from a foreign place inspires thoughts of travel or just a childish wondering of what might be.  In a way just changing what we eat can inspire a whole new life of... thoughts and wonder, of love and sharing, and of energy and health.

Often I find myself inspired by the strange and unusual that life has to offer...these times are my favorite.  These are the times I create unique and unusual foods.  Sometimes my family shares in these moments of Delicious creativity.....sometimes I am on my own.

In this blog I want to share with you the foods I've loved to create and the thoughts that inspire them.

Welcome to my blog!
