Imbedded

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
In the Cooking
of Traditional Family Foods
is imbedded
Family Stories.
It is
as if the Old Ones
help us stir them up.
When we cook them,
the Family Stories unfold.
Those Foods are
like a Weaving
telling us
who held us,
who holds us,
and
who we are.
