Welcome to a world where little people have big personalities. A world thatrsquo;s upside down and yet weirdly; wonderfully real. A world where Lilliputian thieves poach strawberry seeds. Where it takes a guy with a jackhammer to pop open pistachios. Where skaters fall into a crack in the cregrave;me brucirc;leacute;e; and teddy bear cookies congregate with evil intent.Marrying inspired photographs of real food and tiny people with equally inspired captions; photographer Christopher Boffoli creates a smart; funny; quirky vision of what it means to play with your food. The scenes are hilarious and outlandishmdash; a farmer shovels a pasture full of cow pies; aka chocolate chips; hikers pause at a rest stop to take in a magical mushroom forest. And the captions surprise with their cleverness and emotional truth. Of the proudly gesticulating little chef amid the macarons: ldquo;Right on cue; Philippe stepped up to take all of the credit.rdquo; Of the tiny bather up to her chin in waves of blue Jell-O: ldquo;In her continuing search for a husband; Gladys decided it was best to put herself in situations where she needed to be rescued.rdquo; Of the broad-shouldered technician spreading condiments on a hot dog: ldquo;Gary always uses too much mustard. But no one can say so. Itrsquo;s a union thing.rdquo;Happiness; hope; adventure; pride; love; greed; menace; solitudemdash;itrsquo;s our world; seen through a singularly unique and funny lens; in more than 100 scenes from breakfast through dessert.
