Ground beef is by far our favorite food these days. 😆

Something I hope more people will get to experience as our society continues to shift towards more local/traditional foods is the peaceful pleasure of simple real foods.

I used to be kind of a maniac. Around "food" and otherwise. All of that magically disappeared when I came home to what real food actually is. I see (as I'm sure everyone here does) that mania all around me and just think "man, if only you knew".

Also, oyster party Fridays sound like a tradition I could get down with. 💚🦪

I wholeheartedly agree. Good food needs little more than a light seasoning, really. But I think the palate has to be returned to such things. I think this is why recipes are fun and special, but also a bit of a crutch to keep wowing our tastebuds in explosive ways. Like you, I have more peace around food when things are simple.

And my oh my, how did I not know there's an oyster emoji!? Thanks, Jess!!

You make such a great point here Tara! I’ve been working much more towards eating seasonally and locally, thanks to your inspiration - sometimes I just need that kick in the rear 😉😂😂 we’ve been working through the 1/2 cow we have in the freezer. I’ve been trying to mix things up because I feel self-conscious that my family is going to get bored. I think I’m just worrying for no reason though.
