IN THE MIX - Music and Food Pairings

Food and music.  A wonderful combination and a display of a person's soul.  I love to listen to music while I cook and eat, and thought this would a great place to share my ideas of great food and music pairings.  

I think food and music are similar in a lot of ways - both are a creation of someone's passion and are very powerful.  Food and music can invoke a sense of nostalgia and emotion -- like the memory of a particular moment, a feeling of home, a snapshot in time.   So now I'm going to pair food with a playlist. Good food, good music, good times.
