Do You Feel Lucky?

Food Is Happy!

For a moment, the last four ingredients swirling in the clear broth of my won ton soup - a long carrot sliver, two green circles of cut chive and a third chive that had been crushed into a triangle - came together in perfect alignment to form a happy face!

That's how I like to think of my food. Happy to be eaten! Like in various mascots painted on the side of roadside farm market stands, or in certain tv commercials. Whenever I eat tuna, I like to fantasize that it is in fact Charlie the Starkist Tuna.

Finally living his dream.
