In The Summer You Want Fresh, Light And Sort Of Quick Things; In Winter You Want Things That Are Comforting, So Your Body Really Tells You You Want To Go Towards Potatoes, Apples, Fennel, Things That Are Warm And Comforting. And Loin Of Pork.

I Absolutely Adore Thanksgiving. It's The Only Holiday I Insist On Making Myself.
