When I walk into my kitchen today, I am not alone. Whether we know it or not, none of us is. We bring fathers and mothers and kitchen tables, and every meal we have ever eaten. Food is never just food. ~ Molly Wizenberg, A Homemade Life
We're Italian-Americans -- we have very emotional food. Just making a pot of marinara sauce starts a very loud and populated conversation in my head -- mostly arguing. And don't get the voices started on the size of meatballs...
About made me cry. So true.

ReplyDeleteOr maybe a cookbook with reminiscences!
I quite agree, good quote.
