A Foodie’s Year in Photos

It’s been a great end to the year here on the Gut Check, and I’m sad to say that with the end of 2011 I must say farewell.

As my last post, I’m going to capture the highlights of my year with a journey through food-time in photos:

I started here with my farewell to summer, specifically to hot dogs and opened my eyes to all the great diggity dog places NoVA has to offer;

I enjoyed a deconstructed Key Lime Pie a la José Andrés at America Eats Tavern;

I got a free pie;

I made homemade granola for the first time; 

I enjoyed one too many chili half-smokes at Ben’s Chili Bowl;

I tried Ethiopian food for the first time;

I made chili-powder-salt sweet potato fries in my own oven;

I got to try José Andrés’ minibar creations at a private event;

I ordered a secret sandwich on a glazed doughnut for which I reached my quota of a lifetime;

I had a very happy Thanksgiving;

I braved the kitchen and made French onion soup in the cold weather;

I ate better-than-Bobby-Flay pad thai;

I welcomed the holiday season with one too many Christmas cookies;

I ate lots of sushi because I had to;

and my first article on sushi got published in the January issue!

I think it’s safe to say it’s been a great year.
