a family well fed

Food is about so much more than the preparation involved.  It both nourishes and connects people.  When you are cooking daily for a family as large as ours, meal times are an event as well.  There are so many memories associated with food - the family and friends that shared our meals, the lengthy conversations around the table, the teaching opportunities that naturally arise in a laid back atmosphere.  As wives and mothers we are given a great opportunity to nourish bodies as well as souls.
