To Whom It May Concern Yes, wouldn’t it be lovely at the end of a life to find myself nestled in the comforts I once knew. The list could be small. Chocolate, of course. The good stuff. Beautiful food. Surely there could be at least a few delicious meals to look forward to. And …
I once dated a guy who said my motto should be: some is good, more is better, and too much is just enough. He was referring to my cooking. I always prepared enough for a crowd even when I was cooking for just the two of us. He was a minimalist (didn’t have a word
Karen: So tell me, Sue Ann, how did this program come about? It appears to be about food, yet not about food. An online writer’s workshop, is that how you’d describe it? Sue Ann: Good question. The Luscious Legacy Project had been in the dreaming and scheming stage for a very long time. I had
