Presentation is Everything

Food fascinates me. I noticed that some friends of ours who also blog always take pictures of their food. I am converted! I have always loved food and that may be a reason behind my profession:) I am all about the presentation. I don't claim to be Wolfgang Puck or anything, but my many semesters as a student chef at Skyroom Restaurant taught me a thing or two. Below is Matt's Valentines Day breakfast (which he enjoyed on a day that wasn't Valentines). I slaved over it, can you tell? The menu consisted of powder-dusted cinnamon french toast with a side of maple syrup, eggs over easy, crisp turkey bacon, and some freshly cut fruit. Let's not forget the decadent chocolate milk!
Reagan enjoyed watching her dad eat it.
Thanks to my mom for getting me that You Are Special Today plate. It was a tradition in my family growing up and one that continues on in ours. It was a gift when I was a bride-to-be and I think the other Roundy daughters and daughter-in-laws enjoyed or will enjoy one as a gift as well.
