Food Fad

Food Fad

Consider it a fad, an obsession, or a strange version of adult show and tell, people posting photos of what they consume daily has hit an all time high. Frankly, I just don't get it. Perhaps I'm out of touch or maybe I just don't consider what I eat exciting enough to be posted on Facebook or MySpace; truth be known it's probably a combination of both, either way; I fail to understand this newest internet phenomenon. Psychiatrists who specialize in eating disorders and food fixations say it's a natural way of recapturing that earliest connection we felt of food equaling love. Ok....I guess I can understand that. I enjoy nothing more than planting a large variety of veggies and fruits in the spring, nurturing them, protecting them from the elements and predators, and watching them grow. And when it comes to harvest time I have been known to take a picture or two of my garden's beautiful bounty. So, this is actually getting easier for me to understand all the time. In fact, I think I'll start my own web diary of garden delights! Hey, have I shown you my pictures of last year's heirloom tomatoes or the one of the zucchini that was bigger than my grandson?
