You are extremely talented in your cooking, your photography, as well as your writing. It is a joy to see stuff like this.
I too had a childhood of home cooked meals and I have found that a lot of people don't really do this anymore and I find that terribly tragic. You are winning at life, that is for sure.
What a lovely compliment!!! - Thank you!!
It is tragic! Because aside from the actually "dietary" aspects - home cooking brings people together!
