One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating. ~Luciano Pavarotti and William Wright, Pavarotti, My Own Story

Food IS love made tangible... it is a gift that meets the needs of the soul as well as the body. I have found that preparing and presenting food with great care is worth the effort....creating an atmosphere that warmly invites guests to linger. As Julia Child said, "Nothing is too much trouble, if it turns out as it should."

Spicy Salmon Pasta
When Laura P. came for lunch the other day, we fixed a spicy salmon pasta dish!
Here's how: cook the salmon over medium heat with olive oil and lots of black pepper. Gently pull the salmon apart as it cooks, and drizzle fresh lime juice over it. Meanwhile, boil bow tie pasta for about 11 minutes; drain and set aside. When the pasta and salmon are prepared, cook the veggies in olive oil or butter: cherry tomatoes or sliced tomatoes, along with chopped spinach; add just a bit of Sambal Oelek chili paste. Combine all ingredients and mix well, over low heat. Serve with freshly grated parmesan cheese. This is a complete meal, and it's gorgeous!
