“Without a single one of those promised lessons from her grandmother, Portia began to see and taste food without having it in front of her, the images coming to her like instincts, automatic and without thought. She found that she knew things without having to be taught. Rich dark chocolate would calm a person who was hiding their anxiety. Hot red chili mixed with eggs first thing in the morning relieved symptoms of someone about to succumb to a terrible cold.” Food For ThoughtGiftPortia CuthcartHealing Properties Book:The Glass Kitchen Source: The Glass Kitchen
“Images of food rushed through her head, surprising her. Fried chicken. Sweet jalapeño mustard. Mashed potatoes. Biscuits. And a pie. Big and sweet, strawberries with whipped cream- so Texan, so opposite this fierce New Yorker.” Food For ThoughtPortia CuthcartPortia And GabrielGabriel Kane Book:The Glass Kitchen Source: The Glass Kitchen
