Today begins a new season. Minus one dear guest-roomie. Later this week begins Autumn, which has become- despite my slow-to-change mind, my favorite season. And the beginning of a renewed romance with activity, vegetables, and risk-taking toward a healthier me. What better way to start than with a salad, I ask.
Romaine, radicchio, and homemade croutons! No, the picture is not professional-quality. It is a bit blurry. Yes, it is still digital. Yes, I aspire to more, but for now... let's face it. My pictures are less about the "art" of it, and more about giving you a peek into my life and the simple things I find most beautiful in it. And if that isn't art, then I don't know what is. So... more pictures! And really, in the immortal words of Alice, what is the use of a [blog] without pictures or conversation?
There are many things I sit back and watch others do and think, "oh my". Today is the day I start doing some of those things.
So... here's to the under-loved salad. Here's to not paying too much for the little things (like croûtons) that with a small amount of extra time and love become so much more. (Made out of stale bread no less.) And most of all... here's to saying the things and doing the deeds that I find beautiful but am too afraid to try.
Your salad looks very inviting!
ReplyDeleteI've noticed that we have found some interesting ways to use bread that has been around a little too long. Toasted, dipped, spread....
