I could not say it any better than this:
“A Seinfeld reference. Can be commonly used when you are angry, or also when someone is complaining about something trivial, as in:
Katy: “I don’t like my car because it only has two cup holders”
John: “These pretzels are making me thirsty.”(http://www.urbandictionary.com/define.php?term=These%20pretzels%20are%20making%20me%20thirsty)

We buried mom today. If there’s one thing that stands out about my common experience with her, it is a mutual appreciation of great food. She was a wonderful and deeply resourceful chef, but she also loved to go out to have a great meal. As time went on and especially after Dad died, we spent most of our time together going out to eat. She would always enjoy comfort foods, and the easier to chew the better. She noted the success of a place by how well they cooked chopped sirloin with gravy and onions with a side of mashed potatoes. I plan to celebrate her memory with that meal often in the future.

![A food presentation tips [poster] by John LeMasney via 365sketches.org #cc #food #design](https://i0.wp.com/lemasney.com/consulting/wp-content/uploads/2014/02/20100823foodpresentationinfographic-1000x618.png?fit=1000%2C618&ssl=1)
Please click to view full size. So, I love food shows, and I really love reality TV food shows, like Top Chef and Next Food Network Star. However, I have always been a little confused about the rules of food presentation, and what makes one presentation better than another. So, I decided to do some research, and after finding a lot of great resources, one particular site stood out as a good combination of a lot of great tips that seemed to be repeated elsewhere. I was surprised that I had a hard time finding something like the infographic I created here, but I hope to see it hanging up in the kitchens of lots of diners and cafes soon. You may already know that all my work in this project is free to use under the rules of Creative Commons Share-Alike Attribution.I would say that to date this is perhaps the most effort, research and attention I’ve paid to a single sketch, and I’m very happy to have it finished. 🙂
