Hugs and Kisses

You know what?
If you make something with lots of love, it tastes better! It just does. You don't have to take my word for it! Let me give you a for instance: I made butter today. And I made it with lots of love. I took out the heavy whipping cream and I kissed the carton. Muah. Muah. That's right, kissed the carton of heavy whipping cream. Planted two wet ones on it! I'm not embarrassed to admit such things! Then, I hugged the salt shaker and sprinkled salt into the heavy whipping cream and turned on the food processor. Whir. Whir. Whir. When the butter was formed, I took it up into my hands and hugged it. I squeezed it between my fingers. Let it sit in my hand. I closed my eyes and hugged this butter with so much love, I could practically feel a tiny heart beat inside the butter beating. Ka-thump. Ka-thump. No, it wasn't like it. It was more like, lub-dub. Lub-dub. Yes. It was like that.

Let me tell you how delicious this butter was--very, very delicious. The best butter I've had in a long, long time.

Love the food you make, and it will love. Plain and simple.
