7 Recipes for Summer Self-Lovin'
SUMMER IS FINALLY HERE! I don't know about you, but my winter and spring have had some dark times. Like 'almost got bangs when I don't have a bangs face' type of dark.
Lobstah Rolls
I can understand why lobsters used to be prison food. Without context, they look like giant seafaring roaches. They've got no discernible eyes, they sort of drift and crawl like oceanic zombies, and like: the claws, man. The CLAWS.
Some More, Please!
Summer means a lot to me: swarms of bug attacks if I'm outside for longer than three seconds; sweaty as soon as I step foot outside; longer days; more reading light; open windows (until it's time for the aircon to come on); froggy pool/sprinkler time with my son; burning like a lobster if I forget the sunscreen; brushing my dog every other day and filling grocery bags with hair; and, s'mores.

The saying goes that if you want to see people acting weird, go to a funeral or a wedding. The saying would be even more accurate if it mentioned the food. There is always good food at funerals and weddings.
Melissa ArmedaPublished 2 years ago in FeastThee Barbecue Rib
Summertime has arrived. The sun is perched in the sky being every bit of disrespectful as the temperature soars above 90. Yet, this weather and time of year serves as a call, similar to that of a mating call in the wild, to those who hold the barbecue as the champion of warm weather dining events. Shortly after noon, preferably on Saturdays since the festivities at a barbecue can lead to a food hangover that may trickle over into the beginning of the work week, the air starts to fill with a scent endearing to us all – savory smoky fumes of lit charcoal on a grill. We all know that smell; that bouquet broaches ideas of good eats and cold drinks. Barbecue connoisseurs are able to detect whether the aroma is coming from a grill using propane, wood chips, or charcoal briquettes.
Nicole FergusonPublished 2 years ago in FeastMango Mania: Tales of Summer Nostalgia
Since moving to England two months ago, I've not really had a 'food problem.' Rice, a staple in the Philippines, is readily available here - I was, in fact, pleasantly surprised to see an aisle label for it in Tesco. There are Asian stores for condiments, and for the rest, well, I'm not particularly endeared to most of them. As blasphemous as it might sound to other Filipinos, I'm not really a fan of binignit, sinigang or lechon.

Summer is a flaming Peep
It's July 4th, and we sit in my grandparents' impeccably kept backyard around the firepit. I can hear crickets and birds singing their twilight song and fireworks starting in the distance. The air is thick with the smell of the fire, and the temperature is settling into that perfect summer evening where the setting sun hugs you with its gentle warmth.

Socialite SandePublished 2 years ago in FeastThe Complexity of Simple Food
In the eyes of many people food is no longer purely a fuel source, yet an opportunity to experience something new or bizarre. Modern cuisine caters to the ever expanding desire to push the boundaries of the label food. Re-constructed, de-constructed and artistic interpretation of meals from humble origins now fill menus across the world. Simple food should be pushed to new levels and people’s expectations should be pushed, like most things change is good for the human soul and culture. Experimenting fires new tastes and flavours that re imagine the core beliefs of the simple foodie. How many people have been bought to tears over new flavour of cheese soufflé is a different question. The dinner table after all, like the stage, is one of the few places where someone can show skill, passion and the desire to create a feeling in someone else. Even if the feeling is simply as being fuller than when they walked in. Someone trying a new recipe for the first time will often go into a completely new mind set, worrying about the strangest little things from “is this carrot too long?”to “is my flakey pastry flakey enough?”. Above all else cooking for many people is that escape, the simple act of focusing on one thing, the meal.
