Melissa’s Cozy Teacup

But it sure is handy in the kitchen/dining room.This is not a cook book and in some ways, it’s a bit better. The Perfect Setting, Peri Wolfman and Charles Gold, is filled with ideas on how to dress a table. Yeah baby! I have been getting more into presentation following exposure to Asian movies about cooking; Dae Jung Geum, and reading Asian cook books; Harumi’s Japanese Cooking.I don’t just want to make tasty food, I want to create a beautiful experience. Do you feel sometimes as I do, that your day can get caught up in rushing around so much so, that every beautiful moment is snatched up and stolen away by the urgent? Well, make a cuppa and put your feet up and learn a little about how to make eating more than a few gulps before you go on to the next task. Let’s make it a beautiful moment in the day.
