Cue: Sister Sledge singing, “We are Family”.

Sometimes you need a soundtrack in your head to set the mood.

Normally I don’t blog about people that I cook for, but I was honored and privileged to be a part of a fantastic wedding celebration. Two families that came together to have fun and share the love; it was something that none of us will forget. Seriously who can forget a cooking class of barely contained chaos, with an aubergine frying marathon, or a naked guy making breadsticks, or the cries for yet more garlic? And our poor token, good-natured vegetarian took a lot of ribbing but still kept laughing. The wedding day was absolutely storybook beautiful and we were happy to be a part of the festivities.

 

Cooking for people takes a lot of heart and sometimes, I’ll be honest, it takes a lot out of me. This time, I got it back in spades.  Making and sharing food with people is absolutely primal, and to be able to do this with my own family and very close friends, made it all the more special.
