Why Is It Called Restless Chipotle?
I wanted the blog to be… Unexpected. Spicy. Fun. I wanted it to be an adventure. I wanted my readers to check the blog with that intrigue you’d feel if your grandma told you she had been a burlesque dancer or an undercover agent during World War II, as she was serving you milk and cookies. Restless Chipotle gives me that feeling. It doesn’t mean anything at all – I just like it.
Restless Chipotle Is about Gracious Living in the 21st Century
Restless Chipotle is not *just* about the recipes but a food blog devoted to celebrating the traditions, family values, and flavors of the south. It’s about living graciously in the world as it is today and bringing that small town feeling into our lives; giving our children those strong foundations of family, of roots, and making food into memories that are passed down from generation to generation.
It’s a place to learn how to do things that grandmothers used to teach us to do, and it’s a place to find recipes that take you back to Mom’s kitchen or Grandmom’s table. It’s a place of welcome and a place of friendly hospitality.
And hopefully you, my very favorite reader, can take some of that back into your real life.
Restless Chipotle Helps You Lose the Overwhelm
If you’re anything like me, and I know you are, sometimes you get overwhelmed with all of the hustle and bustle of the 21st century. Sometimes maybe you long for those Leave It to Beaver and Petticoat Junction kinds of days – a time when kids played outside until the streetlights came on and mamas chatted over the back fence.
I know I do.
- Restless Chipotle is about living graciously in a hectic world.
- Restless Chipotle is about giving our children strong foundations of family memories.
- Restless Chipotle is about friendly hospitality.
While we’re probably never going to get that slower lifestyle back we can create a refuge for our loved ones right in our homes. We can be the thermostats that regulate the ambiance, the peace, and the security of our lives.
Will it be perfect? Nope.
Changing the World, One Casserole at a Time
I am a work in progress. So are you. So is everyone. The Restless Chipotle philosophy is not about perfection – it’s about bursting into each day knowing that you are changing the world, right where you are.
With a recipe? C’mon, Marye… that’s a little weird.
Nah. Think about your happiest memories. I’m willing to be there’s some food involved somewhere. Sharing food is part of sharing our lives – and a good chocolate cake recipe will take you a long way.
- Find that perfect casserole recipe to take to your next door neighbor that just got some bad news
- Discover the same recipe for your grandma’s pie – the one you thought was lost forever
- Share my memories of growing up and tell me about yours
- Learn to make something you’ve never made before
- Make the kitchen the heart of your home
You can do it. We can do it. Maybe neither of us will discover a cure for cancer or end human trafficking BUT we can impart strong values into our children and grandchildren. We can give them stability. We can give them strong family ties and a feeling of belonging so that when they go out into the world they go out as whole people that bring positive change not broken people that replicate their own brokenness in the lives of others.
It’s worth a try, right?
Check out with others have said about the recipes here on Restless Chipotle then have a piece of chocolate cake and let’s get started.
Love, Marye
