A Superhuman Breakfast referral brought me to my next adventure... In eating... For many of you, the combination of me + food + adventure wouldn't be a big surprise. But, if you don't know me, let me say this: I LOVE FOOD Not just "any" food. I like GOOD food. Talented chef-prepared, palate-pleasing, art on a plate food.

I LOVE FOOD The more color, complex flavor, and interesting texture play the better in my world of "what's cooking?"
