Roasted Garlic + Basil Linguine

A Message...

Food is a universal language. It is a cultural and social cornerstone in communities and families the world over. The sharing of food joins us in moments of celebration, mourning, loving, giving and gratitude. It’s in the breaking of bread that our contentions are laid aside, if but for just a moment, that we bring our focus away from our outside commitments and back to those we gather with and that we are able to recognize the blessing of nourishment on our table that we so often overlook.

Growing up, people always assumed our cousins were our siblings, because we were together all the time. As we grew, work, school and everyday commitments slowly took our time away. How often we say, we need to get together soon, but months pass before we come together again. When we finally do, it is always over a meal. Creating time for family and loved ones, doesn’t need to be complicated. The meals do not need to be extravagant, and they don’t have to be at the best restaurant. Coming together in the home doesn’t need to mean hours spent in the kitchen, although doing so can make memories on its own. Life is hectic and unpredictable, so even if it’s a one pot pasta dish and a loaf to break, it just means you can spend a little less time cooking and a little more time with family.
