"I think careful cooking is love,
don't you? The loveliest thing you can
cook for someone's who's close to you is about as nice a valentine as you can
give."
~ Julia Child
I have
friends who truly enjoy cooking... But I
don't. So I am very fond of meal-related
kindnesses and I remember them even years later. When my children were small, a very dear friend
came over several times and cooked one of his delicious specialty dishes. I can still see him in my kitchen. Another time when I was very pregnant, a
girlfriend came over and made dinner. And
then there is one of my children who from time to time will decide to make
dinner. Recently, she prepared our
dinner -- complete with fresh baked cookies for dessert. And then cleaned up!
