Notes from the Whitemore family kitchen

Hello My name is James and I am openly food obsessive!

I am almost always restless, hungry and looking for the next playlist.

I have a constant need to travel, I find that music calms my mind and the kitchen is my true happy place. In this blog I will share things that I think are worth sharing – recipes that my family and friends have enjoyed, travel experiences that deserve to be documented and music that has stirred my emotions.
