“One of the very nicest things about life is the way we must regularly stop whatever it is we are doing and devote our attention to eating.”
- Luciano Pavarotti
I am often surprised when I encounter people who do not share the same love of food as I. For example, when I had a long or rough day, I find myself craving food that is warm and comforting. In the cold of winter it is not a cold salad I seek but rather a bowl of hearty soup with crusty bread. On a hot summer day, I find myself desiring something crunchy and full of color! A warm cup of chai tea warms me up and relaxes me just as a hearty breakfast and creamy coffee energizes me to tackle my day.
Food, for me is an expression of my state of mind. At the end of a long day, a good meal places a smile on my face and warmth in my heart. Memories are created in my kitchen and my children's full bellies sleep soundly at night.
Happy Eating!
