about the photograph.
In Suz' words, "Cooking and food have always been an obsession. I love food, I love to cook. In more recent years, since the loss of my two wee babes and the birth of my two sons, the 'food thing' has taken on a different, more powerful energy than it had in my world before. This time it was jars and jars of apricot jam. Other times it is big pots of tomato sauce or soup, sometimes cakes or jars of preserves and other times big dishes of braised meat. The cooking time is "my time" in amongst busy days and I often find myself thinking of my lost babes while I stir, chop and ladle. On these cooking occasions, I often think 'I want to do this well, this food I prepare for the family I love is special and important and meaningful'...it almost takes on a mystical significance in my mind. I guess I think that it is the food that I will never get to prepare for the babes who never lived to taste what their mama could make for them. Sad, Happy, Bittersweet. Taste. Love. Life."
