Four Eyes Forum

Welcome to Four Eyes Forum, a meeting place to exchange news and views on food, food photography, the word on food, food science, style and architecture. Join me, the blogger who wears glasses, in this world as I throw out engaging stuff that I think you'll find interesting, beautiful and delicious. As Charles Dudley Warner, American editor and writer, said,

"Lettuce, like conversation, requires a good deal

of oil, to avoid friction, and keep the company

smooth....You can put anything, and the more

things the better, into salad, as into a conver-

sation, but everything depends upon the skill of

mixing."

That's my job.

Happy 4th Anniversary, Four Eyes!

It's the fourth of July and that means this blog is four years young! There's a wonderful pin on Pinterest that says, "Nobody reads your blog." I saw it the first time and laughed and laughed. Then I looked again and got paranoid…what if nobody reads it? Turns out there's no need to worry. Now, thanks to analytics, I know that 11, 726 people have read it, so there! Yes, yes, a small audience, but an appreciative one. So onward we go; numbers will grow. It is about the photography, after all, and the capture of my most-loved subject, food. So tonight, when I hear the fireworks over the bay, I'll know they're not really about our nation, but for me! Therefore, here's a quiet lake bouquet, loads of good champagne, and chocolate, always chocolate. I've earned it.
