Make Something Wonderful

“There’s lots of ways to be, as a person. And some people express their deep appreciation in different ways. But one of the ways that I believe people express their appreciation to the rest of humanity is to make something wonderful and put it out there.

And you never meet the people. You never shake their hands. You never hear their story or tell yours. But somehow, in the act of making something with a great deal of care and love, something’s transmitted there. And it’s a way of expressing to the rest of our species our deep appreciation. So we need to be true to who we are and remember what’s really important to us.

—Steve Jobs, Make Something Wonderful

While I am not an expert maker of superbly wonderful things like Steve Jobs, I have always enjoyed making wonderful things and making things wonderful.

When I am fully enthralled in making something, all those moments in making that something is uniquely mine and become a part of me. It’s an indescribable feeling and experience. Have you had a similar experience?

That’s how I feel about cooking and creating this blog. This is my version of Make Something Wonderful.

I hope by putting out wonderful recipes that I enjoy researching, creating, testing, writing, photographing, editing, and promoting, the energy involved is transmitted to you, my readers, into a wonderful process of its own and is then transmuted into wonderful dishes on your table to be enjoyed with others.

I hope my blog inspires you to Make Something Wonderful.
