The Beginning (on paper, at least)

What we eat is, quite possibly, one of the most defining factors of who we are. As detailed by countless writers, photo journalists, and chefs, the food we eat tells multitudes about us. From health and wealth to spirituality and morality, the food one eats tells a story.

I love food, every aspect of it. To me, there is something divine in a perfectly sun-ripened tomato, in bacon fat, in hand-made pasta. It's not just the taste, it's the journey that has brought that item from start to finish, be that farm to table, birth to death, or what have you.

This is my food journal. I will eat, and then describe the food, the process behind it, maybe throw in some history & a recipe or two, where applicable. Let's see what I'm eating :)
