this is a blog about the food in my life. what I eat, what I wanna eat, what I make, what I bake, what I wanna make and bake, ideas and recipes. it's also my thoughts on food or stories behind the meals. The lyric references are from my lifelong love of classic rock and funk and from working a hunnerd years in music retail.

I'm Not the (Gal) They Think I Am at Home
This was my first day back on the bike post COVID. It felt incredible and freeing. The mask is a little cumbersome but for someone who talks to themselves and likes to sing while riding, its been a cool bonus. With a big spaceman helmet, dark sunglasses and mask, I could be anyone and therefore I choose to be no one and love it!
I made some Chipotle charred boneless chicken thighs atop a bed of polenta and a very cooling nectarine salsa cruda. Even though the nectarines were not yet ripe, this plate shows the fresh signs of spring have penetrated into my kitchen.
In the spring there are never ending salsa options, especially when you add in fruit. You can change the vegetables, the fruit, the citrus or vinegar, the herbs and each combination becomes magic. I don't think you can screw up if you start with something bright like tomatoes.

Just nod if you can hear me. Is there anyone at home?
