Food is symbolic of love when words are inadequate.

We all eat, and it would be a sad waste of opportunity to eat badly.
Laughter is brightest in the place where the food is.
Tell me what you eat, and I will tell you who you are.
The only time to eat diet food is while you're waiting for the steak to cook.
Cooking is like love. It should be entered into with abandon or not at all.
One cannot think well, love well, sleep well, if one has not dined well.

Food, to me, is always about cooking and eating with those you love and care for.
