I love cookbooks
I collect cookbooks
I love eating and reading cookbooks
I love ordering cookbooks
I love shopping for cookbooks
My cookbooks have come from one to another home with me
I’ve learned to dog ear the pages instead of post it’s sticking out everywhere
I can recognize a cookbook where ever I go
I also think every cookbook has ONE recipe that will change your life!
I love creamy pasta
I love making soups
I am a one pot girl
Multi tasking/I’m a bit screwed
I can’t cook for large groups
I’m a personal chef
I like to cook for myself without judgment
Why does so many recipe’s have to be for 4 to 6
Solo by Anita lo helps
That said my home IS A TEST KITCHEN
we are ALWAYS cooking. Pilar Valdez and I are always deconstructing food and figuring out new ways to make things in healthy ways.
But we also love the classics and our mission is to have two options, the most decadent one and the most conscious dish as well.
for those lucky to have food…
I have heard comfort food is through the roof.
everyone is trying to sooth
food…
I think of chefs as rock stars
I geek out
And the thing that has come out of this unprecedented time is that people in food banks are super hero’s
They deserve all the support and the cheers and the donations and the attention
That said...
next in line for superhero
chefs and grocery chains and food delivery!
I love that our hero’s are them!
The people providing food on the front line
And that one thing people can feel somewhat safe about is food itself
That is ok and you won’t get hurt from it.
but it is a luxury
so many people still need it.
that is why we must support food banks
and treat grocers and chefs and delivery people with such gratitude
and recognition
they should wear capes
the next time you see one, remember they are superhero’s
let us never not treat them as anything else
I love food
I appreciate food
I don’t take it for granted
and I will say
that anytime I am in need of comfort
I turn to
kraft macaroni and cheese
DELUX
not powder
with cracked black pepper
and dumb and dumber
this will always make me happy
