“One thing I have a connection to is food. My mom always cooks delicious homemade meals. Some of my favorites are tandoori chicken, pasta bake and meatloaf. Coming home after a long day, it’s always nice to sit down at the dinner table and eat food that is so familiar and so scrumptious. My parents and I connect through food by trying new recipes and restaurants. We like to talk about what spices or herbs we think are good and bad and also try new combinations of foods. My family and I have laughed through all these weird combinations that I try and we learn more about each other through the foods that we like.”
