Food As Eye Candy

Peter Calahan wrote a book called bite by bite.  It is delicious, not only to the taste but to the eye.
He is a chef and party planner specializing in small food.  It is full of fun ideas, mini hot dogs, mini hamburgers, mac and cheese canapes, baked beans in bacon cups, and on and on.  I started reading it and decided that I may have to try a few of his creations. 

I have spent 36 months of my life throwing food up and it has been just a way to sustain my physical body.  Over the last five or so years though I have been taking more of an interest in making food have taste, and now I think I may be looking into making it pretty or cute.

On one of the more recent school breaks I treated the grand children to octopus (hot dogs) on see weed (green top ramin).  Sure enough they ate dinner and it was fun to play with the food.  There are so many ways to explore this world and enjoy each other's company.  Isn't life great?!!!
