I have an inherent need to feed people. I LOVE to see the look of pleasure on their faces when they enjoy good food. I love to create and share recipes. Someone at work recently referred to me as "the Queen of Soups" - I could eat soup 7 days a week in the winter and 4 days a week the rest of the year. Any tradition that involves our family is tops on my list. Cooking among them. Anything our adult children request on their visits home and then relish as they eat it. Ahhh . . . . bringing back memories. Not putting the lid on the blender while making dog food and adding 17 algae coloured green spots to the newly painted white ceiling. We don't even talk about the meatloaf during the first year of marriage.
