I found a new model, except of the regular feeding and discarding what is not needed more, requires nothing else.
Besides being easy to maintain, it's inspiring and delicious.
Something is going on here behind the scene, besides posing and eating.
I am shifting my focus
Towards direction of my spark (remember when I complained about losing it, never mind if you don't), I found it!
...and it's been here, in front of my nose,
served on plate, literally daily.
FOOD
Kind of surprising, ha?
Sourdough
Last month was mostly spent wondering "why wouldn't I start a food blog?"
Basically I am partly doing it, already, here on Hive and that is the first place where I encouraged myself and start sharing kitchen moments. Looking it from a side, it's just another woman in kitchen preparing daily meals, deep down in the core - it's a lot more.
Creative zone
Observing people reactions around here on blockchain and recently my awaken Instagram friends, feedback is good, encouraging and made me think about it as something more than just taking hobby food photos.
I do hate doing dishes tho, even that doesn't keeps me away from messing them up daily/few times a day.
Plenty of food bloggers out there, I know.
..and I don't care, not this time.
That was my bad toxic habit pulling myself away from certain idea just cause it's already somewhere out there.
It's also true that food and mine close relation starts in early age, visits me again in my teen days and finally settles in twenties.
There were also few attempts of starting a home baking business, as I can remember well I had two orders and give up after it (fast results were expected disappointment got me away, lack of support)
It's never too late, and it's not.
No big expectations this time, except persistence and learning.
Next my hedonistic side of eating, there is also food voyeurism moment.
I have never hidden it, if I haven't already had the opportunity to taste it, I will be happy to feed my eyes with a delicious sight.
Scrolling trough social media nowadays there is a high standard placed in food photography, question is do we all have to follow it?
Not saying that I do not like to take a look at something framed so perfectly, ideally detailed and calibrated but is that real time kitchen shoot?
Food bloggers that got my attention are fully organic, real time food prep and shoot, and that's heavy part of this "branch."
Most of meals are requiring whole day, that also means your equipment will be all over the place until you are done with whole process.
Or you can simply frame final turn out and that's it.
...probably my future blog won't be focused strictly on the food, perhaps still life, kitchen tips and tricks, who knows where that might end, adding shop, selling goodies, plenty of options!
Plus, one day we will be back on homestead, blog can not die if you don't kill it, it can be retirement hobby, passive income.
I've counted to many reasons already why I think this is my spark, shall I stop or mention future desired artisan bakery?
Small local type of bakery with diverse menu of forgotten or rarely found pastries, that's what I would like.
About this one I am aware it takes much more time and investment than blog itself.
No rush, this time.
We are considering potentially moving back to the big city sooner.
Realizing impossibility of finding a job here was quite painful. It also matters for our future dreams, we still need bloody money no matter how much we wanted to live slower and on our own.
Sonner we start, closer we will be to our life goals realizations!
Finally I'll do that confectionery course, hated when mom pulled my sleeve with her in kitchen cause I know dishes are mine, well know fact is that I do not even like to cook in group or with someone.
(you can help me doing the dishes, my approval to step in) :P
I hate moving again, really do, looking for new place, changing daily routine change as such, but if I have to make it - let it be drastic!
Same time, my focus here will shift according to everything above. Wondering where you will see me the most?
Anywhere where food is, recipes, tips, photography anything related to it.
That's where I swim the best.
(photos are taken as theme -rising bread-, this is mine first ever successfully made starter and baked sourdough)
