I think these photos are beautiful and love how she arranged the food and the colors....

Based in San Diego, CA + available to travel worldwide

I see food as an art, and an opportunity to do something creative. I’m working on a life goal to teach myself how to cook everything and anything. I enjoy the science behind food and experimenting with flavors.



Wright Kitchen
...here's a couple and there are many more at the site





...and then, while looking at these, Zappa's 'Call any Vegetable' popped into my head of course...



Just in case you're not a Zappa fan here are the lyrics...

"Call Any Vegetable"

Cheesy, cheesy!

(This is a song about vegetables . . . they keep you regular; they're real good for ya.)

Call any vegetable
(Call any vegetable)
Call it by name
(Call any vegetable)
Call one today
(Call any vegetable)
When you get off the train
(Call any vegetable)
Call any vegetable
And the chances are good
Ooooh! The vegetable
Will respond to you

(Some people don't go for prunes . . . I dunno . . . I've always found that if they . . . )

Call any vegetable
(Call any vegetable)
Pick up your phone
(Call any vegetable)
Think of a vegetable
(Call any vegetable)
Lonely at home
(Call any vegetable)
Call any vegetable
And the chances are good
That a vegetable will respond to you-hoooo

RUTA-BAY-AY-AYGA RUTA-BAY-AY-AYGA
RUTA-BAY-AY-AYGA RUTA-BAY-AY-AYGA
RUTA-BAYYYYY . . .

(A prune isn't really a vegetable. Cabbage is a vegetable.)

No one will know
If you don't want to let 'em know
No one will know
'Less it's you that might tell 'em so
Call and they'll come to you
Covered with dew
Vegetables dream
Of responding to you
Standing there
Shiny & proud by your side
Holding your hand
While the neighbors decide
Why is a vegetable
Something to hide?
YAR-R-R-R-R-G-H!

Might be...many of the photos were fruits and vegetables but I also saw what looked like ice cream and some likely junk food.

haha...yes, very weird and brilliant really, this song is so tame compared to his body of work isn't it?
I wish he was still around shaking things up in the music world.  

...and you are very welcome

Thanks, Judith! Her photos are amazing - such love of color and composition!




Good on her for selling prints and cards of her stunning work!

There are some I like even better on her @wrightkitchen Instagram account.

Eye candy for the soul, eh?
