This went directly to my favorites list, (a very select list), this story is everything. Your writing was melodic, and enchanting. I heard the voice of a happy child, an appreciative adult and loving mother.

It's sweet and charming and true. Spoiled with real food, good food, by a great cook, then the mystery of finding your way to do the same.

It's kindness, and love, giving and receiving and teaching.

This is a perfect story and you have a perfect kitchen.

A pure joy to read.
