All these meals are totally photogenic! As I was reading through the post and looking at the meals and captions I was thinking wow I wish all my meals looked this good! The dinner bowl at the top and the Thai inspired coconut curry tofu scramble would be my first choices though I wouldn't turn down any of the meals! What are you talking about??

Alex,
That photo story is too funny!–”like a rash”!! Ha! But it IS sweet that your Mum still has the picture up in her house!

And we are. But not exclusively. In fact, my favourite post of yours to date has been the tribute to bowl food -- your versions of the mish-mash bowl with recipes for assorted sauces. Yes, I love to look at DDD's baked goods, but it's largely window shopping. We bake once a week, at most. Lunch and dinner, on the other hand, we make every day. Healthy, simple and inspired dishes -- exactly what you've deemed non-photogenic and not quite worthy above -- are ever so welcome and useful. More please! (And no apologies necessary.)

Before retiring a spur-of-the-moment lunchbox might contain a serving of turnip greens topped with kidney beans - nutritious, filling and fast, usually seasoned with whatever was the current favorite salad dressing - definitely not upscale or elegant. Thanks for sharing about the pictures. Mine are never as great looking as yours. I LOVE beans&greens!
