On hold

 


Gourmet on a Hot Plate is taking a week off this week--after forgetting to post last week. The truth is I've had some stomach issues which make food unappealing to me. I do not want to plan it, eat it, think about it, look at pictures or recipes. It's an embarrassing place to be for a woman who loves to cook, writes a food blog and claims two cookbooks on her pub list, and hopes to be a chef in her next lifetime. But there you are. 

Not only am I not interested in food, I haven't been cooking, so I have no wonderful and new recipes to share. The well of inspiration has run dry.

I hope to be back next Thursday. Meantime I leave you with a food tidbit: the largest known honeybee in the world produces hallucinogenic honey. Sorry, I don't know where that fat fellow is nor where you can get his honey!

Thanks to all who follow the hot plate gourmet. I hope you had good holidays and are looking forward to a much better 2021. I know I am!
