"You probably need to eat something," the baker said. "I hope you'll eat some of my hot rolls. You have to eat and keep going. Eating is a small, good thing in a time like this," he said.
The title of my blog is taken from Raymond Carver’s story, “A small good thing”. Eat and keep going. I love that statement. When I first read this story I was illuminated. I saw myself having a cappuccino and a pastry in my bad “moments”. Luckily I have never encountered such a dramatic time as in Carver’s story, where a couple lose their child in a car accident. But life is full of up and downs and the little good things food can offer stand for the capacity of appreciating the good little things life offers. Be always opened to new flavors and changes. Be hungry for life.
"It's good to eat something," he said, watching them. "There's more. Eat up. Eat all you want. There's all the rolls in the world in here."
“Just a good little thing” is a food blog and not only. There will be recipes and my attempt to cook them. There will be colors and tastes. There will be people and places. Stories and news. There will be me and my good little things.
