Posted by Krystle Nicholas | Mar 18, 2021 | Point of View, Recent Posts | 0

It was in that moment of reflection that I realized the pattern. How something as simple as food is a part of your identity. How recipes are passed down for generations and the taste can spark feelings of comfort. Hence the term “comfort food.” There are reasons and memories rooted in the foods you loved as a kid.
