some food for thought (& also for your tummy)

Last weekend was the EAT Vancouver! Food Festival at the downtown convention centre. The rain was coming down outside (something we've seen a lot of lately...), so a few friends and I spent the afternoon indoors noshing on delicious cheeses, artisan breads and sampling yummy olive oils and vinegars. I honestly couldn't think of a better way to spend a dreary Saturday afternoon.

But less pondering, and more pictures!

I was so disappointed when all these creations made their way into the trash at the end of the day - how wasteful.  And how condescending to the chefs who poured their blood, sweat and proverbial tears into making these dishes.  Just some food for thought...
