Food has a special way of joining us together. We gather to eat and with that daily process, we also share stories and happenings. Dinner time is the one time of the day where our family is together, present in each other’s company...and it’s a time that I look forward! Food is important to our family and meal preparation takes a great deal of my time. It’s a choice that I make and one that brings me great joy. I love to cook, so I guess that makes it easier! Each week I do a meal plan and grocery list that allows my week to run smoothly and alleviates the ‘what’s for dinner’ on my way home from work. We eat fresh, nutritious food that doesn’t take forever to prep or cook and 16 Travelling with Husky voices which fills the tummies of my busy family.
