Oh, yes, indeed. I was intentionally playing with my food.
It had been a long day of working with words. So, at the end of that day, the little kid in me just wanted to dabble in color.
I rose from my desk and walked real fast to the corner store, a Korean market where the owner always greets me with a smile.
She’s used to me now, sometimes entering her store, with no purpose, just to wander the aisles in a bit of a daze, trying to let go of a heady day.
But this day, I had a purpose. I knew I wanted vegetables to carry home and chop up and photograph in the light of the setting sun.
I wasn’t really thinking dinner. Luckily, Steve always is and so when he returned home, I simply showed him my colorful palette and he saw cooking ingredients. After a moment of thought, he nodded and said, “I can work with this.” He would add white garlic and red onions to the mix, but no images of these items do I have for this post because by then I had put my camera away.
