Granny Soup
If necessity is the mother of invention, my grandmother held a patent in survival. Raising ten children in the height of the Great Depression, Granny learned some lessons the hard way. All those kids, all those mouths to feed, which were staircase born, or stigger-staggered in age. One born every year to help their Papa work the fields and bring in the harvest, had to find something to eat themselves. They were sharecroppers, a common trade in the Old South. Ranch hands were nonexistent, as no one could afford the luxury of hired help. The burden of existing was on the family, and the luck of making a meal depended not just if it rained, but if it rained at the right moment, a precise time in the harvest.

The Legendary Potato Soup
Like many great legends, our soup starts with the humblest of beginnings: A scrappy bag of potatoes (already seeding) and a long-forgotten onion. The year was 1993, the location was Mad Manchester and little did we four house-sharing students realise that these past-their-best ingredients were set to become the foodstuffs of alchemic legend.

Milk-Poached Smoked Haddock
‘You put garlic in it? Garlic!’ I took an audibly deep breath. My livid, hopeless look caught the eye of a young women sitting opposite me on the bus; an innocent stranger unable to ignore what promised to turn into a full-scale row about some garlic, she quickly averted her eyes, concentrating upon her mobile phone.

I Want to Give the World Nachos
The Story: I have been incarcerated for nearly 22 years. Throughout this time, food has held a special kind of significance: food served by the prison is rarely filling, cooked by inmates who are more concerned with stealing anything good and filling their own bellies than they are with seeing that their fellow inmates are able to eat as well as they. On the rare occasions we are fed something decent, there is a rush of people trying to buy or barter for the "good tray." Thanksgiving and Christmas trays, with their extra portion of real turkey meat, rolls, and extra cake with white icing can be sold for as much as $10.

If Rosie finally committed to her promise to leave work on time, she wouldn't be rushing to the nearest station to catch her train back home. She wouldn't be stuck standing with her face inches away from the automated doors. She wouldn't end up drenched when rain suddenly started pouring down hard.

Who's Going To Make The Cookies Now?
Today, I’m thinking of marshmallow squares. Delicious little plain-based, sweet topping cookies that Mom made every Christmas. For as long as I can remember, and most certainly before I was even a twinkle in my dad’s eyes, my mom had baked those same treats every holiday season. Along with her shortbread, her dark and light fruit cakes and her Christmas logs, she was nothing if not a woman of routine.

Embracing Winter Wellness: The Power of Zinc in Your Diet
Embracing Winter Wellness: The Power of Zinc in Your Diet As winter wraps its chilly tendrils around us, the quest for well-being takes center stage. Beyond the allure of cozy blankets and steaming mugs of cocoa, our dietary choices become paramount in fortifying our bodies against seasonal challenges, ranging from the common cold to nagging muscle pains. Amidst the myriad of nutrients, one standout warrior in this winter health arsenal is none other than zinc. Why Zinc Holds the Crown: Zinc is not merely a supplement; it stands as an indispensable nutrient with multifaceted benefits. From bolstering the immune system and regulating metabolism to maintaining neurological health and facilitating digestion, zinc wears numerous hats in the realm of well-being. Its role extends even to the intricate process of wound healing, making it a pivotal component for winters. Winter Woes and Zinc's Shield 1. Tackling the Itch: The dryness of winter often translates into irksome itching, a precursor to potential wounds. Enter zinc, the unsung hero of dermal health. By incorporating zinc-rich foods into your daily regimen, you equip your body with the tools it needs to repel serious wounds and bid adieu to persistent itching. 2. Fostering Growth in Children: For the little ones braving the winter chill, zinc emerges as a stalwart ally. Not only does it support their physical development, but it also fortifies their immune systems. Wave goodbye to concerns about winter-induced colds and sore throats as your child thrives on a diet rich in this indispensable nutrient. 3. Fertility's Silent Partner: Zinc's significance extends beyond childhood – it's a crucial nutrient for adults too. Couples harboring dreams of expanding their family should take note: zinc plays a pivotal role in ensuring the smooth operation of reproductive organs. If family planning is on your horizon, integrating zinc-rich foods into your daily meals is a proactive step. Zinc-Rich Delights: A Winter Menu 1. Nuts: Elevate your snacking game with a handful of nuts. Whether it's the crunch of almonds, the earthiness of walnuts, or the vibrancy of pistachios, these not only tantalize your taste buds but also deliver a generous dose of zinc. 2. Beans: Beyond being a comfort food staple, beans emerge as a nutrient powerhouse. Whether nestled in a hearty stew or adorning a colorful salad, beans provide a zinc-packed punch that your body will undoubtedly appreciate. 3. Whole Grains: Make a simple switch from refined grains to whole grains such as quinoa, brown rice, or oats. These not only keep you warm during winter but also contribute significantly to your zinc intake. 4. Dairy Delights: Milk, cheese, and yogurt aren't just delectable; they're rich reservoirs of zinc. Infuse these dairy delights into your winter recipes for a comforting and nutritious twist. 5. Red Meat: For the carnivores in our midst, rejoice! Red meat stands as a splendid source of zinc. Whether simmered in a hearty stew or sizzling on a skillet, red meat can be a flavorful addition to your winter culinary repertoire. 6. Fish: Cold-water fish, like salmon and trout, bring a double delight of omega-3 fatty acids and zinc. Grill, bake or steam them for a winter meal that's as wholesome as it is delicious. The Winter Wellness Game Plan In the battle against winter health tribulations, zinc emerges as an indomitable ally. Whether you opt to savor it through a meticulously curated diet or choose the convenience of supplements, the benefits remain profound. This winter, let your plate be your shield, fortifying your body with the potent force of zinc. With these straightforward dietary adjustments, bid farewell to winter ailments, fortify your immunity, and embrace the season with a vitality that transcends the chill. As the snowflakes descend and temperatures plummet, let your commitment to winter wellness radiate brightly – fueled by the superhero nutrient, zinc. After all, a winter rich in health is a winter filled with joy!
