Hey there, everybody! So here's the 4-1-1 on this here blog:
How many of us eat the same boring food every day? How many of us eat only ONE color food every day (usually brown and carbohydratey)? How many of us don't even look at our plates before we dive into our food? Me, me, and me! I love food - it is true. However, my love of food has dwindled lately because I just don't appreciate it anymore. Well that stops right here, right now!
This blog is my dedication to appreciating the food on our plates. This is not a "cooking" blog, persay. There will probably be recipes from time to time (because I love to cook!), and I'll usually tell you how I put the plate together, but this is definitely more of a photoblog situation. I want food to become a highly visual event for everyone. After all, we eat with our eyes first! I will also not feature fancy, expensive foods, so fear not for your bank account. After all, I am a starving artist fresh out of graduate school - I like my money in my bank account.
An interesting benefit from this blog will be healthier eating habits. Like many Americans, my plates often consist of foods in the brown and/or tan color scheme (i.e. all carbohydrates). It will be very difficult to compose a beautiful plate with only one color, that's for sure! I imagine my fruit and vegetable consumption will rise dramatically because of this blog.
So, join me on this fantastic food adventure, will you? No more boring bowls of cereal, plain ol' toast, or peanut butter sandwiches. We all deserve beautiful things in our lives - so why not start with something we see everyday, three times a day? It's time for a beautiful food revolution! I hope I inspire a little creativity and beauty in all of your lives!
