I love cooking and gardening. My parents grew up in England during WWII rationing, my mother's response was to give up eating meat, my father's response was to be inquistive, exploratory and imaginative with food. So I grew up in a middle class family who sat down not only to dinner every night, but breakfast every morning, where food was valued, and eating together was a blessing and blessed. I'm interested in responses to dietary restrictions: no meat, no fish, food shortages, no sugar, cooking for diabetics, people with heart disease. I'm interested in what you do with a glut - tomatoes, zuchinni, whatever.
