A Culinary Revival

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

“A culinary revival” is how I described the week I had ten years ago in October 2014. However, it wasn’t just the week I met Marcus Samuelsson, Leah Chase, and John T. Edge (the food writer and former director of the Southern Foodways Alliance) but also the months leading up to it. A few months ealier, I had been invited to a culinary event in New Orleans with Chef John Folse. So, by this time, I felt as if the culinary side of my life had been awakened, and it was finally time to use my culinary degree. Yes, I was somewhat of a chef many moons ago (2002)—degree only, never worked in the field. Let’s just say you never know where life will take you. You plan for one thing—I was set on being a personal chef and traveling the world—and life goes in a completely different direction. While doing part of my culinary internship at a local hospital, I met a registered dietitian, and the rest is history!

Honestly, I’m not sure what’s next for me and this culinary thing. It always seems to be lurking in the background. I use it when doing food demos for nutrition education, but I would love to do much more with it. We shall see.

Well, that’s all I have for now. I just love a good trip down memory lane. Thanks for joining me. Wishing you a wonderful day.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

A New Day

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

Today is a new day! In other words, it’s an opportunity for a new beginning. An opportunity to do something different. To want something different. To expect something different.

Soooo…

What will you do differently?

What do you want to be different?

What are you expecting to be different?

Just a few questions to ponder. Smile

I pray you have an amazing week that’s different and more wonderful than you expected.♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Good Morning!☀️

Here’s what I shared last year, October 9, 2023

“Hey, You! Yes… YOU! I’m rooting for you. You will win!”

Guess what? I am still rooting for you! Just consider me your personal cheerleader. Pom poms, bullhorn, confetti and all! I know you will achieve everything you set your mind to do. Now, KEEP GOING!! Remember, great things take time. You’ve got this!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Not only is today a new day, but it’s the beginning of a new month. Meaning, it’s the perfect time to start afresh and refreshed. Remember, yesterday is gone. You can only move forward from here.

Praying you have a wonderful day and a beautifully, blessed month. May God bless everything you touch and set out to do.♥️

Love you always,

Make It Happen, Today!

Shaun Bradford

Good Morning!☀️

Whatever you desire, it’s up to YOU to make it happen. Please do not wait for your circumstances to change. Start with what you have. Yes…that little bit. And God will do the rest. I’m telling you what I know to be true, not what I’ve heard.

Last year I shared, “Make it happen.” Two years before, I did just that. Smile. And I continue to do so today.

Shared on September 30, 2023 with the caption, “No more excuses. Make it happen.”

This was me making it happen with the little that I had.

Believe me, God has placed everything you need to get started within your reach. The outcome doesn’t have to be perfect. God will perfect things along the way. All you have to do is initiate the process and He’ll do the rest. No more wasting years waiting—like the man in the Bible sitting by the pool waiting for someone to put him in so he could be healed. No, no more waiting! You need to make it happen, TODAY!♥️

Love you,

Shaun

Keep Going!

Good Morning! Couldn’t decide which Facebook memory to share, so I decided to share both. The message—

Persevere and create the life you desire and deserve. Don’t stop going or creating until you’ve achieved both. Then… KEEP GOING!♥️

Love you,

Shaun
