Yeah, I think I just found a new source for background images. Really like these.

PS.. My mom does alot of oil paint landscapes, would you mind if I sent this to her to use as inspiration?

StevieG,

"Why are you not liking Steingarten´s "The Man Who Ate Everything"? The writing is good and the guy is a complete freak."

Wow, perhaps 'cause the book sucks hard and is just horribly written.

Ruhlman, Bourdain, and Reichl's books are all fifty times better than Steingarten's.

That book was the worst food book I've read in years.

If you haven't read it, get The Soul of a Chef by Ruhlman. It's probably my favorite in that genre.

I'm not a huge Bill Buford fan, but I'm looking forward to reading Heat. Sounds pretty fun.

That's crazy, my family's cabin is in one of your flikr photos. I haven't been up there for a while, and the train bridge is TOTALLY new from when I've been up there.

I'm working on "The Reach of the Chef" (I'm kinda in the middle of like 4 books). It's solid so far. Kinda rehashes a bit of "Making" but it's fun.

I have Heat, and I'll be gettin Nasty Bits at some point.

Dids,

Despite our differences, I [img]/images/graemlins/heart.gif[/img] your picture threads. They never disappoint.

Also, I see your loc: has changed quite a bit over the last few months. Assuming it's accurate that's a pretty kick-ass accomplishment of which you should be especially proud (particularly during the holidays).

El D,

"Among the Thugs" was visceral and revealing, especially for the time it was published.

Steingarten often comes off as a pompous ass, but I do appreciate his obsessiveness when it comes to some of his food essays.

Which Ruth Reichl book to read first?

[Lottery Larry]

The shed picture appealed to me.

Checked the link. Since your camera has magical powers, can you tell me what I'LL be getting for Christmas next year? And who will show up at my house?

[Tron]

Didmonster,

How much post processing did you do on these pictures?

[Rushmore]

Very nice stuff, Dids.

I enjoyed most all of it, but was (dare I say) riveted with the photos of your food.

Are you available for catering?
