Finding joy and reasons to love one other and the things around us is a daily task that I like to call an adventure. God has placed so many fantastic things around us and one of those things is food. I hope to be able to bring some joy to you that you can share with others- be it through cooking or other things I discover that make me smile. :)

Garnishes... the quick way
So... if you are fixing dinner, or any other food for that matter and think to yourself- "hmmm... this just seems to look a little plain. It's missing something but I can't think of what..." Then that is the time to go outside and look. My favorite things to garnish with are things that God created himself- flowers, herbs, fruits, etc... If there are flowers growing outside (I'm not telling you to steal your neighbors) go pick one and you just garnished your first dish! Here is a picture of some hummus we made with spices, parsley and a flower that was growing outside our house, and a cake with mini chocolate chips, fresh mint and a flower. Garnishing doesn't have to be hard, but it makes such a big difference! Just keep it simple and look for colors that go well with the food. Happy garnishing!
