“There is no love sincerer than the love of food.”

~ George Bernard Shaw
 

Food is more much more than essential nourishment for our bodies.  It is a fundamental part of who we are culturally and our daily lives. We use it to celebrate events in our lives, comforts us in times of sorrow, and prompts a variety of memories.  Growing up in an Italian family it was the center for so much of what we did as a family.  From the preparation, to the feasting and even the cleaning was an elaborate event.
