new blog. food inspired.

Clearly, something is awfully new here. This blog and this new concept. Hello, Diana here! This braided little girl dressed up in mexican revolution-day garb, indeed was me at 4 years old. I've decided to use this image because it's so reminiscent of my roots, of where I come from and all my first introductions to food. I wasn't the type of kid who would turn their nose at food, specially not foods that were rich, savory and spicy. I ate everything. The staples always included, rice, beans and chiles. Always something spicy and never anything bland. Growing up there was always spicy homemade salsa, and pickled jalapeños at the table. So I embark with the telling of stories, mostly food ones, sharing recipes and other life things.
