Wikipedia says "Foodies" are "amateurs who simply love food for consumption, study, preparation, and news" (as opposed to those called "gourmets" who "are epicures of refined taste"). Amateur? Really? Who could possibly be an amateur about food? Haven't we all been eating food all of our lives, and doesn't that make us all sort of experts?
As food is essential to survival, then many people find themselves "surviving" on food. Those who are budget conscious find ingenious ways to "step-up" their food a notch - like my friends Charlie Duncan and Sydney Mitchell, who contribute to a wonderful blog called
Thrifty Foodies ~ A Blog for Gourmet on a Budget.... It's definitely worth reading, and trying, their ideas!
Charlie and Sydney both live in different areas of New York state, but both used to live here, in South Carolina. Some of the most gifted people around - Charlie a singer, actor and entertainer, and Sydney... well, actually, she's also a singer, actress and entertainer...
I keep hoping they become famous, so I can say, I knew those people, I used to party and hang out with them!
