It started at the grocery store...

Well yesterday, my friend Sheri and I had lunch together in her neighbourhood and we decided to go to Loblaws. Now this might not seem to be a barrel o' laughs but for us it's great fun. We were going up and down the isles making insightful comments on various products (especially Sheri as she is known for her vast food product knowledge and her rapier-like wit). I mentioned that she should "sell her services" because she knows so much about food and she suggested that I not say that so loud. Of course I meant her food product knowledge, but I could see that perhaps the general public might not see it that way.

In any case it got me thinking that we should make our pithy comments on food, recipes, food magazines, food on TV and restaurant food on a blog to share our wise words. We try out a lot of recipes, food products and kitchen gadgets independently and share our "research" with each other. Why not share this goldmine of culinary intelligence with the world?

In my family, if a new recipe is good, my mom will declare, "it's a keeper!" However, that was already a name for an existing blog, so I had to go for the name "that's a keeper!"

Let's see how Sheri feels about this...
