See this content in the original post

Happy Holidays to all of our listeners!

In the spirit of celebrating the holidays, Kelley has invited her dear friend Maggie Kelly to discuss food as a sacred practice. Maggie has been an award winning restaurateur and chef for over 40 years. Her relationship with food is not religious, but it is sacred.

Maggie discusses her relationship with food, the role food plays in building bonds between people, the importance of chefs in the sustainability movement, and her own perspectives on what it means to cook for another person.

SOFT DISCLAIMER: We intentionally recorded this episode while eating, so you WILL hear some background noises as we eat, treat ourselves to a second helping, and just enjoy each other’s company. Be sure to check out the restaurant we ordered from: El Molino del Sureste - some of the best Mexican food in St. Louis!!
