FEBRUARY: Food is Love
Food weaves itself into our lives, our emotions, and our families. A single aroma can carry us back to a kitchen of long ago, stirring memories we didn’t even know we still held. Your own story with cooking—whether joyful, stressful, successful, or filled with a few disasters—reveals something about your relationship with nourishment and indulgence.
And even if you don’t consider yourself a “foodie,” we hope this conversation invites you to explore your own adventures with food—the ways you eat, cook, share, and express love through food.
