Personal quote: Keep your head up and see the light shine on all things meaningful.
Let me be honest. In the simplest terms, we are a blog about food. Yes, we are another blog that will rant about the greatness that is food; everything bitter, salty, sour, and sweet. But we are not out to seek the meaning of life through our stomachs. No, we are too meager to even broach the subject. We are not intellectuals. We are not critics. We are definitely not foodies. We are food lovers in a sense that it gives us happiness, comfort, and a connection to other food lovers.
We created Grade A Fresh as a sounding board, not just a long list of recipes with explicit instructions and unfamiliar ingredients. We wanted to relate to people who crave new ideas and experiences, who love life and art, and who are just passionate about good food. We may be another blog with pretty pictures, but in the end, it is not about us or this thing we have created. Instead, it is about the memory and experience food conjures up. ‘Where was I when I ate this dish? Who was there? What did we talk about?’ So come join us. Share your story. And have a healthy serving of Grade A Fresh.
