This is a book of nourishment. In the following pages you will find an uplifting potluck of essays on one thing we all have in common food. Through their words we see how food not only feeds the body but enhances community, passes on traditions, puts marrow in the funny bone, and connects us with each other and the Divine. Mormons are invested in food.
Casseroles appear at every birth or passing away.
Family recipes tie generations together and make genealogy delicious. Missions challenge many to adapt to new flavors as well as new cultures. Refreshments have drawn flocks in Mormon Country ever since the seagulls found the crickets. These writers invite you to pull a chair up to the table and join in a reflection and celebration of nourishment, Mormon style. And Mormon style, you will see, is quite a smorgasbord.
