Ready or Not, the pages of the calendar click and turn by so quickly. Can it be, as we age, life jumps in with a vengeance to remind us of those hopes, dreams, and goals that seemed in the distant future have already been realized? If so, perhaps it might be time for unusual experiences and brand-new sensations. For me, it feels as though I have been cooking forever. Yet, when I take a different approach to preparing something to eat, I feel revitalized, gratified, and even serendipitous. Celebrity chefs appear to know all about trying new things, don’t they? Some of my posts have been favored by the “Food Network” on Twitter (Snapshotsincursive @DornaGail) as well as Ina Garten’s The Barefoot Contessa, on Instagram (gail _dorna). You can even find me on Facebook or Pinterest at Gail Dorna. I’d love to connect with you there as well. Experience different flavors and textures as you eat with your eyes. Catch a glimpse of “Eating My Way Through the Alphabet: Here Come the Holidays!” This remarkable journey of the palate is unique because it gives me a few moments with you. Thanks very much to all of my guests and followers on http://snapshotsincursive.com for the uplifting support, award nominations, and daily words of encouragement.
