Crossing Cultures: Can I Hear a Delicious?

It's been a long, looong time since I posted about a foodie website. But this is important! Have you been to the website Great Italian Chefs? The photos! The recipes! The history -- food and otherwise. For example, this morning I clicked on Features, then on an article about Sicily's pistachios -- with gorgeous photos of the countryside, by the way -- and ended up reading a wonderful article about Sicily's history. 

Great Italian Chefs is part of the Great British Chefs network. It's a foodie club with three membership levels -- free, silver, and gold. Whatever level you choose has benefits above just cruising the website -- but even just stopping by now and then will open your eyes to some new cooking opportunities and also appeal to the traveler in you, armchair or otherwise.

The lasagne above is Lasagne alla Portofino -- pesto lasagne. It's found under Pasta Bake Recipes. 

The Great British Chefs website is equally fabulous and so different! Today's focus article is on cooking with wild garlic.

I'm not trying to be confusing. The Italian and British are each half one website. I've signed up for the free membership. If I find that I'm turning to it often, I'll probably upgrade. One membership cover both British and Italian cuisine.

I think I'll check out the cuisine of Liguria before I continue with my day.

You are welcome! :)

    A Little of This, a Little of That

    Keep me away from the wisdom that does not cry, the philosophy that does not laugh, and the greatness which does not bow before children. – Gibran Khalil Gibran

    There is much that is tragic about our world. There is also much that is beautiful. To be sure, a lot of the beauty extends to beyond this world. It comes from an all-encompassing, divine love.

    This blog is meant to share that joy -- poetry, religion, the natural world, art, books, music, travel, history, and other lovely, beautiful topics. I find I have no wish to focus on the sad. I do realize, by the way, that a lot of history is sad. But we hardly need for me to highlight that. 

    One more thing/disclaimer: Religion, you might ask? I am a religious person, so much so that I fervently believe everyone should have the right to their own -- provided, of course, that it doesn't hurt others. 

    It is all about love and sharing.


    Out beyond ideas of wrong and right, there is a field. I'll meet you there.          -- Rumi
