Finding my voice

I’ve had this blog for about two months now and I’ve been struggling with finding my voice. I started it as a way to encourage me to photograph anything and everything in my day-to-day life, and while I have been doing that, I never really know what to say about the photos that I post. I suppose I want the photos to speak for themselves, but really every photo, no matter how simple, has a story. Perhaps this exercise may inadvertently improve my writing skills as I work to tell these stories?

So what does this have to do with bruschetta? Well nothing, except that it happens to be another image that I wanted to post but didn’t really know what to say about it. Made from heirloom tomatoes, basil and a garlic spread we picked-up at the farmer’s market, it was another delicious meal a-la my fabulous husband/personal chef.

Soup & Salad

On the menu this week we have a delicious soup and salad combo.

The taste of this soup is indescribable. Made from pressure-cooked butternut squash and coconut milk and topped with caramelized onions, it took all my will power not to lick the bottom of the bowl…Okay, you go me, I licked the bottom of the bowl, but you would have too.

The apricot salad was also pretty scrumptious, mostly because the market apricots have been divine these last few weeks.
