Description
FOOD AS ART :: This U.S. Flag is made from organic home-grown blueberries, organic bananas (dipped in lemon juice to slow down oxidation) and organic strawberries. It was tedious but fun to construct -- and almost too beautiful to eat. I love "playing" with food. It's culinary art with a passion and purpose. :-)
I got the idea from articles and photos online on how to arrange fruit kabobs into the U.S. Flag. Originally, I did this purely for fun before I decided to go for it and share this image with you, my precious visitors to my portfolio at Fine Art America.
As I think of America, I am grateful to God for the freedoms that we still have in this exceptional Country. And I say this without reservation.
Indeed, "Blessed is the nation whose God is the LORD." (Psalm 33:12a, NKJV)
Grateful to God and very thankful to the administrators for graciously featuring this image on the home pages of the Fine Art America groups::

Beautiful and creative! So many people nowadays just gobble down their food without giving thanks to God for what they are about to receive. When I was at school we always said grace both before and after lunch. Not this entitled generation which takes everything for granted, unfortunately! I love your Scripture too! Sadly so many people are abusing this God given freedom to cause mayhem. I know that Satan cannot win the war between good and evil, but that does not mean that he cannot win battles along the way. However, he will not triumph. In the end truth and righteousness will prevail. Now, if I could just adapt this to the Union Jack....
