You Inspire Me

I am inspired by many people, things and places. Here are just a few…

My Husband Who loves to eat, who enjoys my cooking, who encourages me, who loves me unconditionally.

Julia Child Who was the kind of cook that I want to be. I wish I was more like her. She fascinates me.

My Parents Who love family, cooking, nature and photography. I love seeing things in myself that are traits of theirs. I love that I am their daughter.

My Brothers Who are fun, loving, kind, generous, and great cooks! We laugh a lot together. We cook well together. They live far away, and I miss them.

Friends Who appreciate my cooking, who compliment and encourage me. Who act like my menu planning is a real gift . Friends who are as interested in cooking and nutrition as I am. Friends with or without culinary degrees, who share their cooking in different ways: with staff and students at His Hill, with their small families, at restaurants, just for themselves.

Other Bloggers I love the blogging world that I am so new to. I’ve learned a lot, and will continue to glean from and appreciate other bloggers.

Photography I have always loved artistic, edgy, awesome photography. The kind of art that can move me to tears. I appreciate a well composed photo, but there’s just something about a photo that’s got a little more to it that makes it real art, to me.
