| book ~ Milk & Cookies from ~ darling daughter #1 Macadamia nut white chocolate chip cookies ~ for a friend |
What do you do when there is a loss...well of
course you bake....? I am not making light of recent loss that 2 of our dear
family friends have experienced. One a father in his nineties, the other a son
recently returned from his first year of college. I stumbled on my words as I
spoke to each of these families and asked each time if I could bring them
dinner?
So, the answer to my
offering was "thank you, but no" but I could not resist to at least
make cookies for a friend.
I think making food,
when you know someone is in need, is a way we humans try to take care of one
another, it is primal to feed, nurture and show we care. We
share meals for celebrations, remembrance and everyday breakfast, lunch and
or dinner. It is way to connect, have shared experiences and to listen to one
anothers tales of their day, their triumphs and their wishes.
As we attend the different celebrations of
life I will bring cookies.
