Balance.

Isn't that what most of us are trying to find? For myself, balance is something I struggle to find for myself all of the time. Early on in my new career as a stay at home parent, balance was something I didn't care about having. I was so engrossed with having very young kids and a super busy spouse, that it wasn't even possible. Now, my kids are downright old! My wife has a job that she enjoys and it provides us a lot of flexibility. My balance now begins and ends with cooking. It allows me to be very creative and also to expose my kids to a wide array of foods. I've been blessed with great eaters and I think that my love of cooking has something to do with it....or not...who knows. Tonight's dinner was a little bit of a show off. It's some of my most favorite flavors, but I have to admit, I was thinking about this post as I was planning the menu. This blog will have a lot of food and food pictures. I will try to supply you with recipes as well, but I can't promise it will happen every time. Tonight's dinner: Beef Roulade with braised fennel and Brussels Sprouts Salad
