The Salted and Styled family of women… By day we walk the earth as photographers, stylists, writers and artists. By night we are dreamers and eaters. Sunlight or moonlight, we are always creating. It is in the colors, textures and tastes of food that we often find our inspiration. This week this family of women is inspired by salt. Today, through her lens, photographer Chia Chong shares the thoughtful beauty and hint of whimsy in her photographs from the salt flats of Thailand. Libbie Summers shares two recipes this week. On Tuesday, the stunning beauty of a Smoked Salt-Crusted Beet. And on Thursday, a recipe made with a salty grin –Proscuitto Pretzel Knots. On Wednesday, a simple Southern conversation on the manners of salt sharing inspires the artwork of Katherine Sandoz. And on Friday, Amy Zurcher shares the beauty of a salt inspired piece of energy filled artwork. Join us each day this week as salt seasons our lives…both day and night.

A Turned Table: A Monastic Honey Fueled Breakfast
The calm sweet afterglow of a bees feverish work and the ethereal quality of smoke and morning light. A monastic beekeeper with holiness in his spirit as a bacchus host before a young girl queen accepts her destiny. A sweet afterglow.
please pass the salt
It’s a known fact that salt figures greatly in all things, especially in seasoning conversation and supper. The following is one fact that is not so readily known that I picked up from a great Southern lady who happens to be my neighbor: Certainly, the salt is on the table with the pepper. We taste our food first, and then we ask for the transfer that originates from the left and travels right. It never arrives from across and don’t you sneak a shake prior to answering the call.
