Roasted Potatoes and Carrots

Something amazing about potatoes, garlic, and rosemary...there were no fresh parsnips at Kroger so I just added more carrots.  Tasty!

I'm Hungry

Some of my friends laugh at my excitement over food. This enthusiasm has been slowly nurtured through my life. My family always talked about food and its flavor nuances, so I've never thought twice about it. Appreciating well made food, pondering their ingredients, talking about the experience, and then thinking about it later has become a natural part of my existence. I'm the one who, arriving in a new city or town, will do my homework on the best restaurants. I'm the one who will ask the locals for their personal recommendations. And I can tell if you really care. I can also tell if you know what you're talking about! It's an art to be able to make something taste really, really good so that you think about it and remember exactly how it tasted days later.

This is Thomas Keller's buttermilk fried chicken from Ad hoc in the Napa Valley. I still remember exactly how this tasted.
