OK. I just want you to know that I love food. I love growing food, I love preparing food, I love eating food. I love the science of food, I love the miraculous things food does for our bodies, I love the colors of food, I love the tastes of food (except for saurkraut, pickled beets, raw fish and brown bananas. Oh, and balogna, but that's not really considered a food in my book, vienna sausages fall in that category too), I love how food smells. So when I see these beautiful bottles of harvested and bottled food that comes from my garden or from local growers, I nearly weep with joy. I am a food nerd.
And I just had to take a picture of these. Mark was going through the pictures and said, "What is this?" "Ummm, those are peaches that I peeled," says I. Mark asked, "and why did you take a picture of them?" "Because right after I peeled them and they sat a while, the juices came out a bit and they were so shiny and succulent and they nearly made me weep. I had to preserve them in picture because I know they will be eaten soon," says I. "Okaaaay," says Mark. Yup, I'm a food nerd.
I just had to include these cute strawberry mice that I made for some clients of mine (three children). If they achieve their goal for the week, I bring a fun food treat.
I don't think you are a nerd. Just maybe one card short of a full deck. After all, you do dress as trees to entertain children. What's not normal about that?????
ReplyDeleteI think those peaches look delicious. I can just imagine biting into one and having the juice run down my chin and fingers. Yum, yum, yum. And if you are a food nerd, then you are one of my favorite nerds in the whole world.
ReplyDeleteNot a food nerd just a dietician!
ReplyDeleteWe love nerds at our house. And our favorite kid fruit is banana caterpillars. I'll show you sometime. I just made Jason one a month ago.
ReplyDeleteBy the way, are any of the clothes you took home now designated as "dress ups?"
