Om nom nom
How do I start off a post about food? Not the food you get from any particular restaurant, but just the glory of food in general. I suppose you could start awkwardly, like this :)
Lately I've been so in love with food! I'm here in California at the end of summer and there is a veritable cornicopia of produce available, most all of it grown somewhat locally. All of my shopping is done either at the farmers' market or the local grocery co-op, and I purchase almost exclusively organic products (locally-grown whenever possible), so the food is fresh, nutritious, and flavourful. The only way that could get better is if I were to be growing my own food, but for various reasons that won't be happening, at least not anytime soon.
I also love to cook and cook most of my own meals. Sure, sometimes cooking can be a hassle, but when I'm excited about turning this pile of produce into a tasty meal then it becomes especially fun! Lately Smitten Kitchen has been my "go-to" site when I'm looking for a new way to prepare things, and I highly recommend her site; I've loved every recipe of hers I've tried.
I suppose the whole point of this post was basically to say: I love food! And right now I am especially loving being a vegetarian because there is so much good produce out there, and I'm able to prepare it in so many delicious ways! And with that said I shall now go into the kitchen and cook up some breakfast :)
