First Bites

Menus are almost finalized for the Summer Garden Party Series. I can remember this day chopping fresh peaches for this •first bite• It was one of my favorites and we had it 3 times that summer because it was always gone as fast as I put it on the table.#summerfood #divinegardenparty#divinelifekitchen #firstbites

LESLIE'S
COOKING TIPS

#1 

Take a deep breath before you start to prepare food.  Get yourself fully in the present moment so you can enjoy all the sensual pleasures of the food.

 

#2

Let yourself have some freedom in the kitchen.   There is no one way to do any dish.  I often make little changes each time I make even a tried-and -true dish.    Let your taste buds lead you each time.   Maybe today you want a little more lemon or you want to toss in fresh herbs from the garden.

Be free!

 

#3

Give GRATITUDE with the first bite. 
Take a pause.  Enjoy every nuisance of the flavors.   Give gratitude for the effort of farmers,  grocery hands,  your own hands, and the planet for giving you this food.

Thank you SOURCE, God.  Thank you.
