Since I have discovered the Pinterest website (or whatever it is), I'd have to conclude that food is my hobby. I love looking at the pictures and reading the recipes and trying new ventures with food. I get lots of ideas just from the pictures. I can modify to fit my own needs and ingredients and likes.
But I cannot turn my blog into a food blog, because my daughter already has a lovely food blog: MakeHasteNotWaste@WordPress.com She posts lovely dishes she has made, being creative with ingredients she gets in her farm share, or that she has in her pantry, making an effort not to waste anything. She also writes extremely well.
Certainly the value of not wasting food is also my own. I've learned hot to re-use, re-purpose, recreate many food items, and rarely throw away any produce. ( It also helps that my husband loves to eat leftovers for lunch.)
For example, last week, I bought a watermelon to take to a party, but it was overly ripe to be able to cut into cubes, so I scooped it out and put it in a container in the freezer, thinking that I could at least make smoothies out of it. And that is exactly what I have done for breakfast this morning.
I happened upon a banana that I had previously frozen. I knew that I had recently put some getting older tangerine sections in the freezer. I thought those would go together nicely, and indeed they do. I am enjoying my fruit smoothie as we speak.
Even though food is now my hobby, I cannot do a food blog, because that is already taken in my family! And hers is indeed excellent.
