Tyler Florence took me to a Dodger game, in a luxury suite! We ate grapes from the California Table Grape Commision. We were determined to help increase awareness about healthy eating.
The ballgame is a great place to start. Dodger Dogs are delcious. They even come in turkey. So a Grape Relish seems like another healthy alternative well worth promoting. So I said “yes, I’d pitch in”. Because I want you to see how easy it is to make healthy choices, no matter where you are.
I was honored to be invited, of course. But that invitation comes with some responsibility. As blogging has developed into a powerful voice on the web, people in marketing and publicity have begun knocking on our doors. They have noticed that bloggers are gaining influence with their readers. Many of the better-known blogs have become taste-makers and opinion-setters. Is selling my voice for a bunch of grapes a good deal? So I stop and think, and I ask myself, is this a product or message worth promoting?
Sometimes it’s a hard choice. As SippitySup has grown I have gotten more and more requests to promote things right here on this blog. Of course it’s flattering, but it also presents a conundrum. Because Sup! is a picky bastard.
But in this case, Sup! realizes that this is an opportunity to participate in an important message. I hope you’ll watch my video by CLICKING HERE. Or if that doesn’t work go to my YouTube Page HERE. GREG

i like vegetables couz i am vegetarian its looking so cool and fresh to me..even i think that he will be also like that whom add these images and post
thanks buddy
Great recipe. I’m trying it this weekend. Thank you.
What a creative way to use up your leftover ingredients. I didn’t think you were going to be posting, I thought you were away at Camp.
I need to try sugar snap peas again. I’ve tried making them twice this year and they were a bit underdone each time.
i adore simple weeknight experiments like this. they always end up being my favorite eats. and this is totally my thing. lots of green! looks amazing. p.s. loving your blog!
Interesting combination and it looks delicious! Thanks for recipe! You can easily be a chef and a photographer!
This is such a creative way to make a traditional dish-puts the peas and mint I make with frozen, organic peas to shame. Your everyday cooking sounds perfectly great to me…
These are a few of my favorite things. I have this idea for a pea sandwich, probably also a post that won’t get the drools, but these are the posts I most enjoy.
This is a perfect spring side dish!
I think this is just perfect in between all the fancier stuff. This really is a perfect springtime meal. Beautiful flavors, methinks.
That is totally spring in a bowl! I’ve got a month or so until we can enjoy that here in Minneapolis so instead I’ll just drool over yours.
Sure is one heck of healthy salad you have here! I’ve never seen English peas but from your picture, they look so pretty. As for the pea tendrils, I normally stir fried them with garlic and chicken broth. This is certainly a very interesting salad!
So, can I come over for lunch this Sunday?? Love the spring and green!
greg these photos are almost 3D-like. just stunning.
So I have to ask.… How did you get that depth of field with a point and shoot? It’s gorgeous and would love to know the trick!
This recipe is how I cook on a daily basis, I save my show pieces for the blog 🙂
It’s the closest I have ever come to the ubiquitous food blogger DSLR narrow depth of field standard shot. I usually don’t like those shots, but sometimes they are appropriate.
I did it this time with plenty of light to minimize the noise that come from shooting with the lens at its longest focal point. Then I turned on the macro feature and got pretty close. But since I can’t control where the focus is I just shot it with lots of negative space, which I cropped out later, centering the pea that was in focus where I chose to in the frame after wards. GREG
this is too good looking to be in pictures — I need this one “live” gonna get me some peas and do what I want to them!
