Who is Theresa?

I love food, eating it more than cooking it, although I have a sizable cookbook collection. I even read Fast Food Nation a couple years ago, saw the movie, and I still eat meat. Hey, you only live once!

I've made a pact with three pals to dine at a gourmet fancy-schmancy restaurant once a month and then post a review of the food, the service, and the ambiance. You can see my most recent review (Wink) if you like. I also plan to review a variety of not-so-pretentious eateries as well. (Dog Almighty, anyone? Yum!)

I've also been reading Animal, Vegetable, Miracle and am learning so much about growing food, how disconnected I am from what I eat (physically, geographically, and spiritually), and how hard it is to maintain a locally-grown diet. I freely admit I've been in a food rut. I'm ready to claw my way out and really start taking advantage of all the wonderful food that's out there.

I guess that means you like AVM?? YEAH!!! I totally want to make Pan de Muerto for Dia de los Muertos....ooh, great thought: we should have a foodie fest and only cook foods from the autumnal planner. What do you think???

I can dig that!

Reading the book makes me want to plant my own vegetable garden.
