folk artist with food

I am becoming a folk artist with food.
 I am untrained and naïve in the art of preparing food. Frankly, I'm sure a lot of people are - but I can not follow a recipe with out seriously altering it. I don't think I have a superior palate but it has been developing (perhaps in its own peculiar way). I can eat all kinds of crappy junk but if I'm cooking I can't help but be opinionated, crafty, or highly experimental.

Frederick Reunion


It is the first Sunday of every August at Knoebel's Groves in Pennsylvania
I'm heading down that way this Thursday.
To the right is a picture of my Great Grandfather, Steve Frederick and his brother Harvy.
Alas, there will be no beer.
