What brings me joy? Being able to cook for my friends and family and get everyone together at the dinner table. I just love seeing everyone together and enjoying food together. I realized that growing up, my family’s love language is food. We eat together whether it’s to celebrate joy or eat to comfort us in bad times. I’ve always enjoyed cooking and learning new recipes to share my love to my loved ones. And I continue to strive to get everyone together and have a meal together. I am fortunate and grateful I am able to provide food on the table.
Joanna Gaines couldn’t have said it better. “Food is the musical soundtrack of our lives; it bolsters our traditions, it maintains our fondest memories and our notion of home and family and, in the most basic sense, our ability to live and breathe day in and day out.”
What brings you joy? What makes you smile?
