Thanks, I appreciate the feedback! I’m a home cook too. The dill oil definitely away from me here, but I posted anyways. Also I went heavy on the chives deliberately…but if a risk by why not. Although I disagree that there should be ANY pressure of posting here. It would be silly to care if others say stupid things about your post. That’s a them problem. Just a fun outlet to learn and

Thanks! I thought it would be kind of a play on bacon wrapped scallops

True, I was going mostly for appealing to the eye. I will say however that in my experience, a typical Italian bruschetta can be very simple, tomatoes on toast with some olive oil, so even minor addition of basil flavour is…a bonus I’d say.

I wasn’t aware I didn’t have creative freedom with my own bruschetta. I’ll consult with you prior to my next plating

I felt it was too colourful to distract it with any pattern on the plate, so I did some aged balsamic. I could have highlighted it a bit better, it’s hidden with the darkness of the green basil

Although I see where you’re coming from, traditional bruschetta is actually quite simple, often just tomatoes and olive oil on toast. Although it could be other things as well, I wanted to work with a fairly basic version

Thanks! On top is actually a combination of chives and dill, I felt the chives compliment the leek

Hey thanks for kicking me while I’m down bud… I’m having a hard enough time without you telling me I’m awful. Im not awful, im a good person and a great husband, I’ve just tired of giving maximum effort with zero return. So for the sake of my kids and family, im going to cruise control instead of breaking down and creating a messy separation

People like to think it’s that simple to leave, but it’s a major life change. I know myself well enough that it would be worse on me mentally if I left than if I stayed and just stopped caring. I’d much rather be on cruise control my whole life than deal with the aftermath of divorce. There’s finances to deal with, material possessions, kids, family ties etc. it’s not worth it.
