Sunday Food 4 Thought: It’s About Pleasure, Community, Spirituality …
“Food is more than the sum of its nutrients and a diet is more than the sum of its foods … Food is about pleasure, about community, about family and spirituality, about our relationship to the natural world, and about expressing our identity.” –Michael Pollan (Food Journalist)

It looks wonderful. We took a Strawberry Swirl, Cream Cheese pound cake to Sunday School yesterday (we all take turns bringing goodies) and food makes the fellowship even sweeter!
Looks and sounds so yummy, Sandy. By the way, I miss your “Home Is … ” series. :)
We were at our little grocery the other day and my son wanted me to buy the nearly rotten bananas for bread. I explained to the produce lady whom we’ve been trying to get to know why I wanted both rotten and nearly green ones. My oldest made some bread and we took it back down later on for her- she was nearly in tears. I think food is a great excuse to get to know someone- whether family, friend, or other. :)
I have been leading a ladies study over at the embassy on Satuday mornings and your book came up this past time. I had mentioned it once when we were discussing something, and a couple of the ladies have gotten it. Their husbands’ jobs entail a great deal of entertaining within the diplomatic communitry and they’re finding your book really helpful! :)
