“Through cooking, you raise our spiritual level and balance yourself in a world that is materialistic. In a world that is frequently out of kilter, the kitchen is as mystical as a monastery.” Laura Esquivel
Good reason to keep cooking!

Love the quote! I am not familiar with Laura Esquivel’s writing. I checked it out on the internet and am intrigued – looks like it would be right up my alley. I’ll check with the library next time I am in town. Thanks, DW.
