I love food. I especially love when I can taste every single ingredient in a dish and those blended flavors create magic for me.
Basic, fresh, locally-sourced ingredients combine to make the most mouth-watering concoction you’ve ever experienced. Well, at least that I’ve ever experienced. Maybe tomato salad isn’t your thing. No worries.
Tomatoes and oregano make it Italian; wine and tarragon make it French. Sour cream makes it Russian; lemon and cinnamon make it Greek. Soy sauce makes it Chinese; garlic makes it good. — Alice May Brock
Imagine (just for a moment) yourself as a dish of food. What would be on your list of ingredients? Take a few minutes and consider the qualities and characteristics that make you, you. Write them down and hold the list in front of you and read it out loud. Don’t be afraid to identify what’s truly there, each and every flavor whose distinctive essences combine to create the most exquisite flavor palate that is you.
Did you leave off a key ingredient? Add it to your list. Now read it again. Is it complete?
If you’re afraid of butter, use cream. ― Julia Child
The best combinations are those with the fewest ingredients. Don’t compare your list with what you think comprises someone else’s list.
If you show up wholly and completely as yourself, with your basic and internally-sourced ingredients, what makes you amazing?
I know you’re amazing; I just want to be sure you see it, too.
The discovery of a new dish does more for the happiness of the human race than the discovery of a star. — Jean Anthelme Brillat-Savarin

I like a cook who smiles out loud when he tastes his own work. Let God worry about your modesty; I want to see your enthusiasm. — Robert Farrar Capon
