Welcome to Community Cooking

Welcome!

We started this blog to facilitate the exchange of new ideas for eating. We both believe that the problem doesn't necessarily lie in what we eat, but how we eat. Go ahead and have that cheeseburger, just be sure to add some lettuce and enjoy every bite. It seems that we as a culture are too busy to slow down and enjoy the things we are eating when we should be savoring every bite. We all have our own relationship with food. At times it can be daunting and negative trying to navigate the "American" diet.

In response, we created this blog so that we can have forum to connect with one another, talk about out own personal relationships with food, and exchange ideas about how food is grown, obtained, prepared, and consumed. Feel free to share not only recipes but traditions, tips for shopping, eating out, gardening, eating with a crowd, feeding our families, and of course, recipes for beverages (alcoholic and non).

Please send submissions to community.cooking@gmail.com. Don't forget to send as much information about yourself (including pictures of yourself and/or the subject of your submission) as you would like to see posted.

We're excited to start cooking together!

With love for food,
Iris and Aimee
