It's hard to know where the time goes, seems not that long ago I was blogging at a break neck speed, then life got busy I guess. Since my last blog I have been lucky enough to spend some time overseas in France, England and visit Croatia for the first time. I have still been cooking a great deal and now give cooking lessons which I really enjoy, I think I must be a frustrated home economics teachers! I recently held a hands on pasta making lesson with a couple of easy sauces. The day was a hoot and the people were keen students who got over their fear of the dreaded pasta machine. http://www.meetup.com/Eating-Underground/events/59194532/
Introducing people to new cuisines and culture is also something I have been pursuing inasmuch that now I actually take people on tours around different suburbs known for their diversity in food. It's a wonderful experience when people enjoy something new, such was the case for a couple of people who tasted yum cha for the first time.http://www.meetup.com/Eating-Underground/events/57982812/
As well as introducing new cuisines I have started hosting dinners celebrating a different cuisine each time and in some cases perfect strangers attend and leave as friends looking forward to the next one. Eating around a table is a great tool to bring people together, perhaps all countries in political strife at the moment should try it. http://www.meetup.com/Eating-Underground/events/57527812/
I hope you enjoy the pictures and look forward to doing some serious food blogging in the next week or so, I have made a number of different things all with pictures, just have to get my act together.
Happy cooking
