I love this ode to food! This was so comforting to read, and I learned something new about your religious connection with food as well. Currently trying to find something festive to make myself.

This post made me very happy to be here. I was raised SDA as well and this resonated on a very deep level having attended an Andrews affiliate. Clementines are something I've been eating a lot of lately, too

If you haven't seen it, I would highly recommend the film "The Taste of Things": https://www.imdb.com/title/tt19760052/

It is so beautiful, slow, romantic, and just perfect for those who just want to savour films. <3
