One of the great things about being in California these 6 months has been the produce. Sad to see artichokes less and less in the marketplace, it's been incredibly lovely to just steam them with lemon wedges, garlic cloves, and a handful of whatever herbs I have on hand. It seems so fancy, but really just easy and light and good for you. High in antioxidants, it's got a lot of fiber and is great for digestion. I love the tactlessness of eating artichoke like this, as well, it feels like love.
Learning to eat healthy is a culinary adventure and an unending lesson in living. This journal chronicles my love affair with food and how, in general, cooking and eating good food is a delicious act of love.
