Pachamama’s Beautiful Food ~ Cooking with the Elements

Margaret Gilfoyle trained and received initiations from indigenous healers of Peru, Brazil and Ecuador during the last decade - her first introduction to the presence of PACHAMAMA, Mother Earth to the Quechuan speaking people of South America. “Their traditions and beliefs in the Feminine Spirit which lived within the Earth itself rang true and deep within me.”

Pachamama and the Creator offer their gifts freely and abundantly within the intricate, infinitely beautiful web of life. In gratefulness of receiving these, we can learn more fully the joy of giving reciprocally what we have to offer in return. We honor Pachamama as we assist nature and people in respectful, sustainable ways. Cooking with love and the intention of bringing energy of peaceful joy as meals are prepared makes even the simplest cuisine and dishes very special to friends and family sitting down at your table, and assists the Earth's energy to resonate with more love, your love.

We had a fabulous meal of chicken duxelle; mashed yams with turkey bacon and crumbled feta; roast golden and local red beets, rainbow carrots, asparagus and onion with orange dill butter, then coffee and Keto almond flour bundt cake with whipped cream and strawberries, but the most wonderful part of the afternoon was the after dinner mandolin music by my very talented son @gilfoyledeano1 🔆 . . #pachamamasbeautifulfood #earlyeaster #gift #gratitude #mandolin #familytime #love
The snap peas (Botanical Interests Cascadia and Sugar Magnolia varieties) are popping! Plus golden and Detroit red beets, spring garlic and spinach are up, testing the spring air too.

My love for asparagus continues, loyal and unabated.

Thank you Creator for the season of Spring! 🐞🌱🌸🌺☀️ From the absolutely endearing fuzziness of pasque flower buds to the first (for me) ladybug of the season. Knowing of another winter storm coming, I took my time reveling in warmth and nature yesterday. Thank you @gardensonspringcreek for planning and planting all this beauty! Take a walk through all the photos .... 👣 . . . #pachamamasbeautifulfood #flowers #spring #rockgarden #garden #coloradolife #fortcollins #gardensonspringcreek #themagicoflookingclosely #gratitude #creator

This beautiful old stove on display in the kitchen at the historic Avery House in Fort Collins, Colorado .... reminded me of cooking and baking in wood cook stoves back in my mountain days. One of my biggest joys was pulling heavenly fragrant yeasted cottage dill bread out of the oven in my tiny cabin at Meeker Park. If you’ve had the chance to cook on a wood stove, you know there is a difference in how things turn out - almost indescribable. More flavor in some undefinable way, and definitely in my case a deep appreciation, a rich experience where the steps to reach the goal were every bit as satisfying as biting into those slices of hot sliced bread and melting butter. Well almost.☺️ . . . #pachamamasbeautifulfood #woodcookstove #woodstovecooking #antique #averyhouse #mountainmemories #cooking #coloradolife
