A New Year, A Few Photos

margie pikarsky | bee heaven farm

I’m finally back in Miami after 10 days with my family in Houston. While away, I spent some time trying to clean up and organize my computer. I went through my photos and deleted a bunch of dark, blurry restaurant photos that I kept, probably as a reminder of a dinner out or a dish I liked. I also rediscovered some photos. Photos like the one above, of Margie Pikarski, that I like but never posted.

I took that photo when I was working on a story about women in farming that appeared in Edible South Florida’s latest issue. I spent a good four hours with Margie at the farm. At one point, after packing loads of avocados, she drew a face on one and said it was a woman farmer. I like the picture and didn’t want to let it just sit on my computer so I thought I’d share it and a few more from 2010. They’re random shots of food but all of them are memories of the year that ended.

Great idea! The link to the women in farming article sent me to the current issue of ESF. Maybe get the pdfs and link to those?

Thanks for pointing that out, Trina. I’ll work on fixing that.

All such great pics, but my fave is Margie with the avo!
Waah, I miss American Noodle Bar. Was a cool place to grab dinner while on break from work.
