Nicole, my daughter-in-law, has agreed to help me cook.
Over a Zoom call.
We share what we are each making.
She shares the recipe with me
So I can make what she is making.
But usually we each make something different.
The magic comes from creating something together.
In different places.
Feels like community.
I loved cooking with my children when they were little.
Cooking is a social event to me.
A gift of community.
Sharing food is a universal way of showing love, connection, care
In every culture.
All humans. And animals.
It’s been hard for me to cook alone.
I have resorted to unhealthy eating.
I reached out and asked for help.
And look at what I got…
The joy of creating healthy food with a lovely new daughter.
