Food glorious food!  It’s at the center of love, families and friendships.  What do we all do a huge percent of the time we’re together?  Grocery shop, garden, cook, eat, clean up.  Gatherings of family, friends and lovers set in our novels (and most stories and novels as a matter of fact) frequently center around dining in one shape or form.  This page exists to celebrate all the myriad ways food is a part of all of our various relationships.

 

Here are are a few of our favorite family gatherings…and the food


                                                                                                        Summer dinner on the patio at Mary’s hacienda

                                             Matt never met a bowl he couldn’t conquer!

Mother’s Day Picnic under the grape arbor. Amazing food, wine, family.

A getting together toast!

Another toastWe seem to like to do that.  This one was an  après ski dinner in Deer Valley, Utah. My brother “threw” together a little pasta dish.  My brother went to cooking school at Le Cordon Bleu in Paris. His definition for simple is different from mine.

Moab, Utah before the half-marathon, hard to believe we could run after stuffing ourselves the night before.
