Mise en place, not
Mise en place (pronounced miz a~n plas) is a french phrase used in the culinary world, meaning everything in its place. As in, you have everything in its place before you start…
Okay, so technically this little blog was to be up and running January 1st… uh, well - many things prevented that from happening. You know it’s hard to find time when your mother of the year, have the perfectly organized home and the best behaved children (and husband) and in general the perfect- blah, blah, blah! The reality is that taking this step has been a huge undertaking for me. I thought I would be so organized, with a thesis and a functioning-train-of-thought, but not so much. What I have is a desire to get going and a laundry list of content ideas. So why take myself so seriously? I don’t generally subscribe to the serious blog - it makes my eyes twitch and I yawn a lot. Who wants that?
I just want to have fun.
No time for mise en place - so here it is. I am a food obsessed mother of 2, wife of 1 (sometimes I think mother of 1, wife of 2 might be easier…), I’m right brained - no left brained - uh, I often function with no brain. My interests are very fragmented, intense and then fleeting (don’t laugh, I can’t be the only one) and I am simply complicated.
Hypothetically, some of my first posts will be about my girls, my chickens, my garden, the construction of my wood-fired oven and oh, my Mr. Perfect (seriously). But really, when you suffer from ADD, MPD and OCD you really never know what will show up here…
