In My Kitchen: A Visual Journal
I’ve always been inspired by pictures—there’s something about capturing a moment in the kitchen that feels just as satisfying as the cooking itself. Over the years, I’ve filled countless folders with snapshots of dishes I’ve made, never quite knowing what I’ll ever do with them! Some are shared here.
This gallery is a collection of some of my favorite food moments. Some are tied to recipes here on the site, while others are simply dishes I wanted to savor a little longer. Either way, they all come from the same place: a love of cooking, creating, and sharing.
Looking back, I’m amazed at how far I’ve come—not just in my cooking, but in how I see and celebrate food. Sometimes I scroll through and think, “Wait, I made that?” It’s a humbling and proud feeling all at once. Many of these meals are tied to special memories with friends or family it brings me joy to reflect on those moments. After all, that’s what feast and merriment is all about.
