Soulful Greetings,
Culinary art & food conjure up many facets of life experiences and memories from early childhood to young adulthood. Later on in life when we have developed our favorite or chosen dietary lifestyle sharing food around a table for two or a large table filled with family or friends is an enjoyable and nurturing experience.
Whether you enjoy shopping the organic farmer’s markets and specialty stores for fresh ingredients to create meals at home or you prefer dining in various restaurants and experimenting with local or ethnic cuisine in your city or town, food packs more than a nutritional benefit. It feeds the soul in ways that are impossible to measure.
I invite you to think about your childhood memories related to the enjoyment of food. Do they include regional or family recipes for dinner or desserts? Do they include memories of preparing or enjoying certain foods with loved ones no longer with you?
Within every chapter of my life, there are food-related memories starting with growing up on a lake in Miami, Florida. My grandparents, maternal and paternal lived next door and on any given day a casserole dish of Polish or Lebanese food was passed over the fence from either side for our family to enjoy. We also benefitted from the lovingly prepared Cuban food from a beloved woman who cared for our family for over three decades.
Some of the best memories I have of my late daughter evolve around food. Her passion for culinary arts and food preparation began at a young age as we started sharing a love for creative time in the kitchen at home and in our catering business. After she became an adult she thrived in commercial kitchens and we enjoyed sharing recipes, restaurant recommendations and restaurant experiences that I will always cherish.
May you be nourished, nurtured and soulfully satisfied by your cuisine inspired adventures at home or around the globe.
Happy Soulful Adventuring,
Nancy Yuskaitis
