Things I Love (about food)

No recipe to post, but sometimes you just want to declare what you love about food:


1. That first whiff of lemon or lime zest while grating it for a recipe
2. The smell of fresh herbs, especially basil
3. The salty-sweet combo of chocolate-covered pretzels
4. Bright red bell peppers in a stir-fry
5. The sizzle from dropping vegetables in a hot skillet
6. Tearing off a piece of crusty bread, hot from the oven
7. Blueberries in every way- jam, muffins, bagels, pie, or just fresh
8. Chocolate chip cookies with crispy edges and a soft middle
9. Roasted vegetables of any kind- tomatoes, onions, potatoes, even brussels sprouts
10. The smell of freshly ground coffee
