It has taken me WEEKS to read through all your older enteries and work my way back to this initial post. I must say you are an amazing woman that I now admire greatly and deeply for your views not only in the culinary world of taste and technique, but for the moral and political aspects of it. I would like to think I have learned a great deal through your shared words, and that I will continue to do so by following your blog.

You must be aware of your talent for storytelling, it’s admittedly what first caught my attention. I can barely remember why or how I stumbled upon your delightful blog, except that it was a search for more blogs to read. Not to hold you accountable or anything, but I have been busy reading only your words for this past while. I have a habit of trying to read, or even glance over, every single post in a blog I find myself enjoying.

….I also feel mildly self-concious about typing the word ‘blog’ so many times. Especially when the collection of words in praise read more like they are out of a soulful memoir than what often comes across as an impersonal electronic-processed summary of things.

Anyways, perhaps I am rambling off too much, but I simply had to let you know that your words and this site have inspired and touched me. I would say thank you, but that seems too final when I by all means possible intend to continue reading your fine works.

Have a wonderful day.
