Simple Joyful Food

"...and they ate with gladness and simplicity of heart"

live happily

I am thankful.

November 27, 2009 Leave a Comment

Today is Thanksgiving and I am thankful for today. To be alive. And happy. And loved.

Today is my 20th anniversary and I am thankful for knowing and having such happiness and peace in my life. 20 and ½ years ago I met the man of my dreams… and he won my heart. Other guys would give stuffed animals, flowers, and perfume. My man? He gave me food. He was a keeper.

Dennis, thank you for an amazing life! You are the bestest.

My name is Lyndi Fultz, and I live in the beautiful Ozark Mountains, which span Northwest Arkansas and Southwest Missouri.

I like to share small ideas for living simply and eating happily.

You will find that I talk a lot about food because we all need to eat. Why not add little bits of food joy where possible?

inspiration

“Just like becoming an expert in wine–you learn by drinking it, the best you can afford–you learn about great food by finding the best there is, whether simply or luxurious. Then you savor it, analyze it, and discuss it with your companions, and you compare it with other experiences.” – Julia Child
