You. One thing I miss about the good old days is in the 1990s in New Orleans, after my mom's sudden death in 1991, I had an aunt that I had never met. Aunt and uncle rather that felt compelled to rescue me out of despair as I sat on the porch just getting the news that the mother I hadn't seen in four years, whom I just reunited with, would not be coming home again

And that sense of flow of love through family, through being steeped in the tradition of just really dropping into the culture of food and of family. I feel like when we remember things, we bring them alive again, and something in our subconscious says, hey, let's conjure that up again. Let's bring that back into our lives, whatever that is that we're missing, maybe by speaking its story into our space now, it comes back
It's. Yeah, but this is such a touching memoir. Such a touching story, recalling of emotion. You have a way to captivate, capture and just move with your words. And I think you know that. But it's worth telling somebody when it is time that you see and sense that. Beyond that, I did want to say that I can definitely empathize with the sudden loss that you experienced. I experienced a very similar level of loss with my father
