The Kitchen of Love
To me, there is one place where the love for your family always seems to grow, and that's in the kitchen. Perhaps a few paragraphs from my favorite kitchen book can explain this a little better:
"We don't know about you, but we both love the kitchen. It is the heart of the house, the pulse of the family. So much happens in the kitchen. Botulism and putting out fires is only part of it.
First, the refridgerator is there. Need we say more? Nothing brings a family together quite like a game of 'Guess What It Was'. Whether it's a cucumber that now looks like a Chia Pet, cheese that now weighs two pounds more than it did when you bought it, or the three-week-old pot roast that is now providing a sort of neon lighting for you to see the rest of the food, playing Guess What It Was is a fun and educational game that has been bringing families together since the invention of the refridgerator.
Then there's the stove. How many famalies have gathered around a skillet engulfed in flames, trying to put out the fire before the neighbors see the smoke and call the fire department again? Nothing bonds a family quite like standing around a roaring grease fire on a cold winters day.
...Few things can silence teenagers more quickly than food. And few things can bring a family together faster than a feast. And we haven't even mentioned all the food fights yet."
