Good evening everyone,
Today was a cold yet nice day in the Netherlands.
*
I have been photographing my meals and my coffees all the time, and been posting it on Facebook. People might think I'm crazy and annoying, but it's my way to show gratitude to food. It's darn expensive as it already is. I think during this time and day off age, a picture on the internet shows the right kind off appreciation. I'm gratefull I still have it, and out off gratitude my food deserves nice tableware. Even if it's something simple. I think it's a bit foreign to treat food like that. In the Netherlands, we barely did so anymore. I would say it's southern European, but English are also masters in fancy tableware and making it look polished in serving. Nowadays, food doesn't deserve any less than such appreciation. That's my opinion. Serving it nice, despite it's moderation I try. Not shoving it thoughlessly in anymore, and gulp like a pig on it. It's really more class if we value nicely. And yeah, take a picture off it and somewhat flaunt if I do so. I hope it doesn't sound too strange or crazy. I just got a voice in my head saying we should treat food with the right amount off respect, expensive as it is. And yes, I feel like I've dined like royalty. Despite smaller portions and smaller amounts. If you have the opportunity, or the dishware to do so, maybe it's a good idea for you. I try to picture it really tastefull. It's just that I've done so all the time, and my Facebook audience might get a bit annoyed. I hope not.
It's a really mindfull way to treat food. We should not treat it respectless anymore. But that's how I see it.
This is one example off doing this. We see one Kaiser bun with molten cheese and ham, and a large glass off milk served on my nice breakfast plate.
On here we see Brussle sprouts with boiled potatoes and a home made meatball. I cook like this, it deserves gratitude and praise. And it's on a nice pink dining plate. i also try to picture beautifully.
And here we have my afternoon coffee at de Boed, with one Easter cookie. See, I'm that rigid, I'm even gratefull for this and post it on Facebook. I picture almost all my food. Coffee and cookies are expensive. Especially for people with a low income. But we got it handed for free each day here. It deserves gratitude and praise. I hope I don't come off too desperate. Or too rigid. But it's how I feel about it. Food is something to be gratefull for. Even a bit more during this day and age.
Allright, that's about it for now-
Thank you for reading.
