This evening I decided to put on my pastry chef hat. I made an Indian Rice Pudding. It is considered Indian because of the consistency and the spices I used. I also use Carolina Gold Heirloom rice which is an amazing rice from North Carolina

While at one of my favorite cafes and specialty food stores called Joans on Third I took a few photos. I chose this one because they have one of the finest and most comprehensive cheese selections you would find anywhere. The food here is amazingly fantastic as well.

At the Farmer's Market. One of my favorite places to go, buy food, and take pictures. These are purple radishes that are not quite as pungent as red and have a very clean flavor.

While at one of my favorite specialty food stores I had to take this photo. I think the art of tempering chocolate is underrated and that most who work with it do not know how to do it correctly.

Worldwide photowalk today. This was one of my favorites. The walk I participated in was in the Echo Park Angeleno Heights area of Los Angeles. I would love to do this more often with a group of passionate dedicated photographers or even better, students!!
