I grew up in a community where you never really called ahead before you visited someone. You just packed up a little basket of goodies, pulled on your boots and showed up on their doorstep ready for a few laughs and a good “yarn” or two. This last leg of our most recent GetJoyfull trip to Newfoundland is all about just that. A truth that food is more than just fuel — food is community. Food is making an extra casserole to take over to a neighbor, it’s going out of your way to do a good deed – just because. Food does so much more for us than just fill our bellies, in my family it’s the vessel for sharing everything that is good.
