Happy Mother’s Day to all that celebrate🌷 Th

Happy Mother’s Day to all that celebrate🌷

This holiday is a tough one for me.

I am the mother to 3 amazing little boys, full of fun & cuddles, that I wouldn’t trade for the world! Because they are truly my world. ❤️

But, I am also a ‘motherless mother’. My Mum passed away after a very short intense illness, when my first son was just 6 months old. We had a brief few weeks when she was well enough, I as a new mom and she as a new grandmother, to experience a few firsts together.

Those precious few moments where she was healthy enough to hold my squirmy squally newborn, coo over his full head of hair and bright eyes, were some of the best moments for everyone.

In the almost 11 years since she has passed, I’ve had two more sons that know her as ‘Nana Carol’, even if they never met her in person. She is still here every time I cook one of her recipes, or when I tell the kids stories of gardening with her as a kid, or about how she would always braid my long brown hair as a little girl.

To those other motherless mothers, I feel you. To those mothers who have had losses, I see you. To those that wish they had more of a relationship with their mothers, I hear you. To the ones lucky enough to have their mothers in their lives, I envy you.

Remember to call your mother, and even better, if you can see her, hug her tight 💞

ＴａｂｌｅＳｃｅｎｅ

There is a common thread among many food lovers. Whether you’re a home cook or Chef, food blogger or food photographer, we are often working from a place of ‘service’. What can we give to a person through our food?

👉🏻That can mean many different things. Nourishment, of course. Comfort, love, and heritage, absolutely. A dining experience, joy, or pure bliss, I hope so.

🍇There’s nothing like a table scene to visually convey what we hope to gift to you through our cooking. This is my entry into day #2 of the food photography collaboration, #5daysofstorytelling, hosted by @evakosmasflores and @bealubas. Featuring plates of my delicious juicy Roasted Chicken with Fresh Thyme.

What’s the deal with leftovers?

👉🏻I’ll admit it, when I was a kid, you couldn’t pay me to eat leftovers (except for pizza)! But, was I ever wrong!

As an adult, I think I live on leftovers, aka meal prepping. Leftovers can be manna from heaven when you are crunched for time and groceries.

☀️This dish, my 𝐑𝐢𝐜𝐨𝐭𝐭𝐚 𝐆𝐧𝐨𝐜𝐜𝐡𝐢 𝐰𝐢𝐭𝐡 𝐋𝐞𝐦𝐨𝐧 & 𝐏𝐞𝐚𝐬, is made with leftover boiled potatoes from the night before, and like a Phoenix rising, these fluffy toasty pastas are better than the bits they’re made from! Bathed in a white wine butter sauce with plenty of fresh lemon zest and peas, this dish probably won’t have any leftovers to put away!

👉🏻This is my entry into a lovely collaboration run by @anna_janecka and @the_soupp_chef, focusing on ‘Leftovers’. Follow the #leftovercollaboration for more amazing dishes!

Happy Cinco de Mayo! I know everybody is breaking out the tequila and indulging in our favorite Mexican foods in homage to this great holiday!

In the States, Memorial Day is supposed to mark the unofficial start of summer, but I like to think of Cinco de Mayo as a wonderful precursor! Summer means big bold flavors to me, and lots of yummy cocktails!

What are you making today to celebrate? I will be shaking up my Creamy Coconut Pearl Paloma and Watermelon Margaritas tonight! 🍹☀️❤️

𝐓𝐞𝐥𝐥𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐚 𝐒𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐲...

If you were to describe the story surrounding this super tasty berry dessert, what would it be? Maybe a summer afternoon picnic? Casually lounging around with friends, while drinking Prosecco and enjoying a sweet?

𝐎𝐫

Working in a hot kitchen with little kids racing by with bubble wands, shrieking and laughing, as you layer sugar sweetened berries & vanilla cream on fresh lemon scented shortcakes....

Which version do you think is true? 😜

👉🏻Storytelling through food is one of the top talents needed by food bloggers & photographers. We not only need to create lovely looking dishes (that also taste good!), but also be able to convey a feeling or mood through a still photograph.

🙌🏻This is my entry into the #5daysofstorytelling collaboration hosted by @evakosmasflores & @bealubas. Today we are focusing on ‘Process Shots’.

☀️I used natural light from my kitchen, to leave you with the idea that I was plating on a relatively calm summer’s day... without kids... or leaky bubble wands... did it work? 😜
