The brioche looks ahhhhmazing. I would love to have a couple of those right about now with about 1/2 cup melted butter on top. THAT would be heaven on a plate.

I love blue cheese so very very much. I think Point Reyes from OR is probably my fave.

I like this post! I was just talking about funeral parlors with a childhood friend recently. My parents dragged me with them to sooo many.

I was finally able to finish reading this and as you have probably guessed I haven’t been able to stop crying. Food is comfort, but not nearly as comforting as your words. And yes I promise, but if I should perhaps someday take a very long nap I promise there will be food, very good heart warming comforting food and maybe a beverage or two and it will help and knowing Jerry so will he. And having had you as my daughter, I will sleep peacefully with no regrets. xoxo

This is so inappropriate but the article kind of reminded me of the movie Harold and Maude…

I’m so sorry for your friend’s loss, and I think it’s great that you’re providing food. I always like to make something for someone when a tragedy happens, because you’re right: no one’s thinking about food at a time like this. When my dad was in a head-on collision 12 years ago and we were dealing with the aftermath, our friends and family sent food over at a time when we otherwise would not have had the time or the energy to make something for ourselves.

This is a wonderful post. <3

I love your post. Food comforts all of us (even in some of the most difficult times). When my mom was dying from cancer a group of people where I worked pitched in and bought my family a weeks worth of catered dinners. That was one of the most thoughtful gifts I’ve ever received.

I hear you. I am struggling to post once a week. No time. When you do get around to it, I can’t wait to read about the Slow Food event. lol Meanwhile keep not posting. It makes me feel better when the blogs I like aren’t posting a lot either. Selfish, yes. Thanks for reading, even though you are busy. It means a lot.

What a lovely ending… and I understand, completely. You are obviously the BEST daughter she could ever wish for.

I haven’t posted for 3 weeks – deep in the throws of planning a local slow food event. Great work. Time well spent, but missing my hobby site, my kitchen, cooking and reading your wonderful posts!
I hope to catch up soon!

Oh my gosh…your last line was perfect. I couldn’t agree more. Death sucks. You and your words meshed with my heart tonight. There has been a lot of death in our lives this year, and food has made the healing easier. Thanks for sharing, sweet girl.
