That's just the way it is ! :-)

My great grandmother was THE best cook, her eldest daughter, my grandmother was fantastic and NO ONE can make deserts as she could. Mt mother was also a wonderful cook, and I am no slouch either. My daughter is a good cook, getting better, but can't replicate my Yorkshire Pudding. I don't know why.OTOH, NO ONE can replicate my great grandmother's poopy seed horn and my cousin and I yearn for it.

When I was a very tiny child, I thought that cooking was " magic "; like making a potion. It is and the " secret" / " magic " ingrediant is L-O-V-E ! :-)

Cooking is magic, and the kitchen (in our family home anyway) has always been the heart of our heart.

I can honestly tell you that most important family conversations, and all general meetings of the Gonzalez household were always conducted in the kitchen.

I'm carrying on that tradition.
