FOOD NOT VERY GOOD FOR YOU. Who cares; once in a while it will not kill you and if crave  and enjoy it, the end result is that iw will be good for you. I live to eat. This stir fry of potatoes, onions, bacon and peppers is absolutely delicious. Nevertheless in these litigious times I must state: talk to your health care professional before you eat this. LOL.

 FOOD THAT IS GOOD FOR YOU. We all know how healthful broccoli and carrots are. Sadly cooking them destroys much of their benefits. If they must be cooked the less the better. The best way is to eat them raw. Here is wheen some imagination comes in handy. I chopped the carrots and broccoli and dressed with olive oil, lemon juice, origano, salt, black pepper and slivers of provolone. The end result was a delicious and healthful salad. 

 On the boardwalk in Coney Island, Brooklyn. Early seventies when I was shooting lots of street photography mainly with a Leica M-4, the superb 35mm Summicron and Tri-X. I liked to get close and personal with my subjects, no telephoto sniping. This way you get the subjects' reaction that was very revealing.

 Peperoni alla siciliana, bell peppers Sicilian style. In Italy the term pepperoni is reserved for peppers and not for the hot sausage sold in the US. A tourist who orders a pepperoni pizza will get it with sweet bell peppers. This dish is not the traditional peperonata in which the peppers are stewed; instead no cover is used and the peppers and onions are fried in not too much oil and are constantly strirred so that they cook evenly. An example of complex simplicity. At the end muddica atturrata or toasted breadcrumbs are added and the result is delightful. a great side dish.

Super creamy penne rigate with heavy cream, paprika, lots of parmigiano and a dash of tomato paste. A delicious combination of flavors.
