Today is the birthday of writer Jim Harrison who has been married more than 50 years. Here's an excerpt of his writing from The Writer's Almanac with Garrison Keillor: "Marriage is survived just on the basis of ordinary etiquette, day in and day out. Also cooking together helps a lot. I've seen all these marriages that failed. Those people are always hollering at each other. That doesn't work. Do you remember the '70s, they had all these 'empowering' groups where you tell everybody everything? That doesn't work in a marriage either. That's stupid."
I agree--cooking together helps a lot. Jim and I have been married over 27 years, and cooking together has been one of our favorite things to do from the start. We both love to cook, we both love to eat, and we both love to feed our family, our friends and our students. As Italians say, food is love.
