“Eating is not merely a material pleasure. Eating well gives a spectacular joy to life and contributes immensely to goodwill and happy companionship. It is of great importance to the morale.” Elsa Schiaparelli
FOOD is SUSTENANCE: Do you remember the last time you ate your most favorite food on the planet? How about a joyful memory of food shared with loved ones on a very special occasion? What about a funny, sad, adventurous or even scary moment you had with food? You see, food is a great equalizer and, like life, it helps us create memories and milestones that we cherish throughout our lives.
I’ve always loved good food and I suspect that it had a lot to do with my mother. She was a terrific cook and studied catering back in the day when more women chose that area of study because of career limitations. She loved to experiment and we got to try all sorts of exotic and exquisite foods. Of course, my favorite food is tied to childhood memories of being nurtured, protected and fed food that made me feel better, even though it wasn’t a pill. But then again, food is medicine and we can heal our bodies with the right combination of food and therapeutic medical treatment. So grab a cuppa, click on any link here and enjoy the food stories I’ve shared. More will follow.
Food plays an important role in all of our lives. We need it for sustenance, we gather to enjoy it with friends and family, and we use it to celebrate special occasions. I’ve written a number of posts on food but, recently, my kids encouraged me to create a dedicated page to feature our recipes, our love for fresh ingredients, and the joy of good food.
This is a new page and it will be a repository for all things food; recipes, stories, reviews, special offers and more. If you’d like to share a good story with me or would like me to write a review or taste test a food, please contact me at: Contact(@)mirthandmotivation(.)com.
FYI – I’ve added a few trackbacks below for your easy perusal.. There are more food related posts on this blog and I plan to add to this list soon. My first food feature is a Green Beans Medley. Hope you enjoy it. Thank you for stopping by!
Positive Motivation Tip: Enjoy the foods around you and don’t forget to give gratitude and share.

I think your children’s suggestion of having a dedicated food page was spot on. Unfortunately, I can’t see or find your Green Bean Medley recipe. I also checked in my Google Chrome browser after I couldn’t see it in my Firefox browser.
Hello, Ms Elizabeth Obih-Frank! I like your passion and understanding about food and its social values.
Here are many more great examples to inspire you to make more great dishes during the festive season:
https://soundeagle.wordpress.com/2012/12/08/soundeagle-in-edible-art-glorious-food-and-festive-season/
Please enjoy and happy 2018!
Good idea to make a separate food page. Family eating together is really important.
I love all the great quotes, especially the one by Elsa Schiaparelli.
This is why the family dinner table is so important. Sometimes I lapse and let my kids eat in the living room but really taking those twenty minutes to commune with each other and our food is so important.
There’s so much good content here to sink my teeth into😋. Looking forward to digging into your site some more!
I am looking for recipe ideas. Is there a link that I’m missing?
What type of recipes are you looking for?
I love the new page! I agree, food should be enjoying and not rushed and also healthy.
I love fresh vegetables. I love fresh ingredients – wish the olive oil wasn’t so expensive
Thank You, Thank You!! I love trying out new recipes.
I think this is such a terrific idea..I am a 63 year old bachelor who has cooked for himself for too many years ..always within a minor range of selections..that this would be a great resource for me…thank you
I love food to much..lol.I really need to find healthy recipes that my whole family likes and that is difficult.
I love getting new good recipes. I am really looking forward to this page. Thank you so much for sharing
Thank you Linda, I’ve very busy of late, but I plan to link other food posts from this blog to this one, and write more food posts. 🙂
Look forward to reading more food posts! Thank you…
Thank you so much. I’ll have to post another one this week. Glad you enjoy them. 🙂
I love trying new recipies Thanks for your blog it is so inpirational.
You have the best recipes. Thanks so much.
I am going to go out right now and eat a lettuce, tomatoe and avocado sandwich.
Hahaha! Enjoy it. 🙂
This makes me want to eat a tomato lettuce sprouts and avocado sandwich with veggie mayo… omg yum.
How do I find your Green Bean Medley (and other) recipes? I don’t see a link.
A great idea.Food is something that everyone can relate to. 🙂 Looking forward to some recipes .
awesome idea, love to try new recipes
It’s really great to find someone else who enjoys fresh ingredients. This time of year is my favorite because we plant a garden in our back yard. Looking forward to seeing your recipes.
Didn’t find the recipe of the green beans medley too. I guess I’ll go to the other trackbacks you provided to check if I can find some new and easy recipes. Thanks!
It’s there. Take a look at the trackbacks. Thank you! 🙂
Yes what a great resource.. can’t wait to go through all the yummy recipes
I like to try new recipes for my family. It gives them some diversity.
Same here… I also ask them to tell me what they’d like to try. They are very creative foodies too.
I love food and any post about food will get my attention…always!
My daughter’s college scholarship group for helping those in poverty did a practice where they invited everyone from the university to share a meal together – some were served feasts, while others rice and beans only, while some only rice. They all discussed kinship, working together, their meals, and what it is like for the different classes. I think you would have loved it!
I like the quotes you use in this post. They are spot on.
Thank you! 🙂
Love the food dedication
food is a physical,mental, emotional, and spiritual experience – the way we prepare and eat our food is SO important….
It’s so true that food is common ground and a universal experience. Food can bring everyone together!
Love this post, it has sparked some ideas. And that picture? It sparked some too.
When my kids were growing up, as a single parent it was really difficult to make sure the 3 of us ate dinner together every night. Too many evenings were spent at the office for that OT! If I could do it over again, I change a few things. Dinner is connect and feel the love time, So wish I had made that the home motto.
Great that you have added a food file to your plethora of offerings.. but I would love to see your recipes too, surely you have many to offer! 🙂
Yes, i have many more to offer and will return to this section soon.
I am learning cooking and your post has encouraged me to try new recipes. Thanks for sharing it with us.
Good, keep it up!
I just noticed your James Beard quote: “Food is our common ground, a universal experience.” I travel all over the world and I have found that to be very true. Even if you don’t speak the language or aren’t familiar with the culture, you can still communicate positively through food!
Food is a great way to connect and bond with people globally
I loved the quote by Elsa Schiaparelli and totally agree with you that we should enjoy each and every bite of our Food and thank God for providing that meal to us.
Yes, it is a precious commodity.
I have never tried a cronut before, but now I need to! Yum!
Food should have more of a benefit than just good taste. Done right, food keeps you healthy, cures things and so much more!
our lives revolve around food, it’s so important. Love the recipes.
Thanks for all the great quotes.
Im a foodie!
“Food is our common ground, a universal experience.” That is so well said and so true!
This is a great resource for meal planning and ideas. I’m always up to seeing what others are doing that I might adapt for our own meals. I can see a few enticing titles I’d like to explore this weekend.
what a fantastic recipe list. I’ll have to go through it more carefully
You bet food has a lot of importance in our lives as we need it to survive. But also food connects us to who we are and allows us to create memories too. Who doesn’t remember a childhood favorite dish that transports us to home =)
I love food pages! One thing that always connects my family is sitting around good food at the dinner table.
YES! Food plays such an important role in our lives. What we choose to put in our bodies determines so much for our day, week… years. Fantastic post, list of recipes, and inspiration!
Food is essential, of course, but we need to be more careful with the choices. There are so many easy options as well as healthy ones. I too often choose the easy way and don’t listen to my body what it really needs to be in full strenght.
We sometimes forget how blessed we are to have all this yummie food. Posts like this remind us. Nice.
This is such a great idea .. having one central page that links to food related posts. Can’t wait to read more about the “10 Good Luck Foods to Eat”
Great to have a food files section! I am always forgetting where I saw something and wishing I had bookmarked it for reference!
You can bond over food faster than anything else in the whole world no matter where you are in the world.
Love how your kids motivated you to add a food section. Very good idea. I can’t wait to explore some of the recipes.
LOVE LOVE LOVE the food files section of your blog! So many great ideas!
I have a big love-hate relationship with food. I love that it brings people together, keeps me nourished, and tastes good. I hate that it takes so much time to prepare and eat. This is a good reminder of how important a person’s relationship is with food though.
Wonderful quotes and thoughts. The food isn’t too bad either. 🙂
I am a foodie and really excited to follow your blog for mouthwatering recipes. Love hira
Great post! I love food and I love eating! but eating is so much more than just “eating” I love to have dinner with friends or family
Great Idea for a blog post. I think food is a universal thing and I am such a foodie I love it.
I love the new page! Yes, food should be enjoying and also healthy. looking forward to reading some mouth watering recipes.
I need to borrow some of those oils:)
I’m a huge foodie myself, and always love to try new things all the time. 🙂
I couldnt agree more! In our home our kitchen is the center. We love to cook together and enjoy delicious meals together!
I agree that food plays an important part of our lives. I love that it can be so much more than just a “staple to live”; you can have such a great time cooking and baking, and there are so many incredible dishes to try.
I have been thinking of just making a pot full of food with just mushrooms. I am so going to do it now!
Love your food posts, and looking forward to reading more of them in the future. 🙂
That’s why I don’t like dieting. For me, good food adds enjoyment to life. My husband and I are avid and adventurous eaters. In fact, we are off to another adventure later. Can’t wait!
These recipes sound delicious! Thank you so much for sharing!
I love olive oils and greens. I think olive oil is much better than butter and anything else like that. Food is wonderful and tasty when it is healthy too!
I shouldn’t have checked this post. I am hungry and craving because of PMS huhuhuhu now, I wanna cook something in the kitchen!
This is a nice collection! Fresh foods are so nice to photograph because they are so colorful.
Food is something that everyone can relate to. Though I loved eating once but now I am developing aneroxia. But I loved reading it.
Coming from a Latino family, we bring food to all events and for all reasons. We live to eat. We also love spending time as a family is not all about the food.
This is a great idea! I love learning new recipes – especially people’s favorite family meals.
Haha! Who wouldn’t have food category on their site? But I agree that it connects if not almost, all of us. A true international common ground for all. Nice words.
I’ll be excited to see all of the recipes and items you stick on this page. I do think food binds us in a way few other things can.
Oh I agree, ”Eating is not merely a material pleasure. Eating well gives a spectacular joy to life”, it gives utter joy and energy. Somebody told me whenever I am hungry, I should eat, but if I am thinking about diet, I should just eat responsibly. 🙂
Nice list of resources, thank you for sharing the post. I’ll keep it handy for a reference.
I love food as well. Lately, I’ve really been interested in eating more plant based food and be organic to have a healthy lifestyle. I love organic food recipes
Love the “try the world” series. So cool!
Nice page i look forward to reading more of your work.
Fantastic, i believe it is good to know that food is life and sustenance, well said.
I am making the chestnut bread recipe you shared. Thanks 🙂
Food time is always special to me. I am not much a cook but I do enjoy a tasty food with a good company. I couldn’t agree more with your post
We are trying to eat very clean and to appreciate our food by eating and using everything. It’s not always easy but we’re getting better and better
I always and always will say, eating and food is my favorite part of the day!
I agree food plays such a role in all of our lives! My family is italian and it definitely plays a part in ours!
I really wish I viewed food as sustenance. I have abused food for so many years and ruined my body. How do I start over?
Coming from the Philippines, My family loves food! We live for food! Food is life! Food brings us all together! And eating is the only form of exercise we know… OH NO!
Food is so important part of our lives and it’s important to eat healthy at least that’s what I have been trying to do 🙂
Laura
Food is such an important part of our lives, not just for sustenance. A family that eats together stays together. Love to try new recipes, its nice to have a new page dedicated to them.
This page is going to rock. I love healthy recipes enriched in nutrition. Looking forward for your informative posts on foods.
I am a BIG food lover. Not only because it is the source of our life, but for me it is an instant mood lifter.
I love food not because we need it but it also gives me happiness henever I prepared something new for my family.
This is so cool that you are dedicating a section to all things food. Food really does play such a pivotal role in alll of our lives.
Those are some amazing recipes, I can’t wait to try them. I always make sure to that we always eat together with the family.
I love food! Sometimes I thinks I love it too much! It’s great to associate memories with good food like you have!
I love everything about this post most especially those delicious recipes.
I remember the last time I ate my favorite food was a month ago before my husband live for work.
As a mother I always make sure that me and my kids are eating together because for me, eating together is the best way to talk about everything that you’ve experience in the entire day/s.
lots of awesome recipe you’ve got here, thanks for sharing
Such a healthy recipe! Thanks for sharing.
Liked your page. I liked your other pages too. This one is interesting with the food recipes. Everyone loves food in some or the other way.
Food is such an important part of so many cultures
I see tomatoes. Now I need to check my garden if there are some ready to be picked. Yum!
You and I can relate. I am a big foodie and I’ve always loved good food as well. Both my mother and grand mother were great chefs and worked as so. The funny thing when I was younger, I did not enjoy cooking, I don’t know when the love erupted.
There is so much positivity and motivation in this blog. Love to read over and over again
I truly agree with you, when it comes to food we are all in the same page. I value food so much.
I love this! I have raised 5 foodies! All of our family celebrations are surrounded around food. I will have to check out some of your food files. Thanks for sharing!
This article gave me great insight about food.
Thanks for sharing. Suck a lot of information, all very good!
Food connects us. It fuels our bodies with energy and it brings us together at all sorts of events. This is why I love learning new recipes so thank you for sharing yours!
Hi there,
Thanks for the list. I must be thankful for you for writing about this.Always I get useful readings from your well-written blog.Happy blogging!
OMG I love food this is such a great post! I never would have known so many cool things about food!
Good idea creating a section with all your recipes and all things related to food. I need an afternoon to go through your list.
There are so many good things about food! I love learning new and easy recipes.Thank you for this.
The quotes are really lovely and spot on.
food is so important as nourishment and it has a way to bring people together and share a meal x
Laura
Me myself I love food – eat and cook. It’s such an enjoyable task. It was my mom who also influenced me to love cooking. Thank you very much for this post!
ps: And I checked out Five Foods to Live For and I saw that’s there’s White chocolate melted with macadamia nuts. It’s my favorite! <3
Thanks for sharing food recipes. I love reading new recipes. Looking forward for more food recipes.
Nice food thoughts! Food is really the center of our family lives, getting together after school/work etc & catching up adds to love, care & security…
Foods always gave me a positive mood. It amkes my day complete adn it is the solution to my problems Lol
Wow, this is awesome that you started a food section too. Definitely food is something that unite us and is still full of diversity at every step. Food is what we go to whenever we are sad, happy, going through hard day.
Its awesome to find some great new recipes! i love using fresh ingredients 🙂 Thank you
Nice to see you adding a food section. It’s one of the most important things in our world, after all.
You can hardly show anyone who doesn’t like food.
It’s universal love, You should go on with the suggestion.
Your Mom sounds like a wonderful woman! I am currently working on creating good memories with food. It’s a lot of fun.
There is no doubt that food is just one of the real joys of living and that becomes even more special when it is an occasion or you are sharing it with someone you love. One of the things I love to do when I travel is to try as many different cuisine styles as I can. I am really impressed with all the food posts you have done – I didn’t know you had completed so many and will have to check some of these out.
Food is like a soul to me and I can’t go without food. Why cut food just to be on diet. The rule is take a healthy food and enjoy it.
There is no sincerer love that the love for food! Food is vital in our lives, love all the quotes, so agree with all of them
My children have huge appetites and it is a challenge for me to come up with new recipes. Meal planning is a task in itself! I am excited to know that you will be adding a category for food/recipes on your website!
Food is a big part of my life, having a food blog and working on all of my recipes. It brings our family together as we all cook together, eat together, and the kids even enjoy helping us photograph.
Food plays an important role in our lives. It’s nice to share it with friends and family to celebrate special occasions.
In my family, food is how we express love. There are so many wonderful memories that are made while preparing and eating as a family.
I’m salivating. So scrumptious! You are so right about the necessity of food!
I think considering children’s meals will drastically help with parent frustration!
That’s awesome! I mean, as often as I visit your blog, finding new recipes or food reviews would be very helpful for us moms. Looking forward to it!
I love the new page! I think anything about food is something I’m always wanting to read about. I love how you have all the great recipes here too.
If Food is a religion, definitely I would like to be converted! It is also a universal communication that all understand. FOOD!
Super like your post!!! Yes food is sustenance, food is life and as such should be eaten with respect and thankfulness.
I love food especially fresh and home cooked. I believe that food never fails to bring people together.
We love food in our family! And we’re always happy to see new and exciting recipes 🙂 Green beans are one of my favourites and can’t wait to try out this combination you have on your site.
Wow, you have a lot of categories for food..! So fun to read all of these. Food is definitely our common ground.
This post got me hungry.. Ugh. I could really relate in your fondness with foods.. Love it.
I really wish that an older family member would have taught me to cook because it doesnt come natural and isnt a fun task for me at all
Oh I love this blog. Food categories are so cool..! Thanks for sharing, love it..!
This post is so entertaining, I’m such a food lover. I love reading more about foods. Thanks for sharing.
Love your new page! I’m a huge foodie and lover of cooking and baking. I completely agree with your view that food is such an important part of our lives!!
My most favorite food on the planet is salad. I eat salad almost daily. I love tomatoes and lettuce and I just change the dressing.
Delicious post I can say! Now i’m craving for some good taste.
I agree that food is medicine and we can heal our bodies with the right combination of food and therapeutic medical treatment. I like your trackbacks.
I have always seen motivational posts on your page so this is a change. A welcome one..:)
I love using food as a vehicle to bring people together and fellowshipping with them. Thanks for sharing!
I think for me it was my Great Grandmother who really got me into food, she used to take us all over the place to try different foods when I was a kid. I have many great memories with her in different restaurants.
It’s amazing how many memories food can evoke in us. It’s so much more than just something vital to life.
I agree that we should always be grateful for the food we have and share it with others who may no be so fortunate to have enough food.
I love your attitude to food as not merely something that fills us or that we eat for pleasure, but a great and essential part of our lives. I’m so glad your mother fed you well and you cherish the memory of the foods she cooked.
I love reading about food, even if it is a cookbook! I really enjoy cooking and baking, so I am always trying to learn about it!!
So true! Can’t wait to see all the yummy recipes!
Aside from music, food is something people from all walks of life can definitely connect with! Will check out those links
I agree food is so much more than about sustenance. All celebrations are around food. It plays such an important role in our lives.
My grandma used to make homemade beef and noodles. My grown kids still ask me to try and make it (mine is never as good as hers) and they are all grown. I think it’s more of a feeling than a flavor (though it tastes great too). We’ve attached that dish to our memory of her, and how special she made all of us feel.
Great page! I am not good in cooking but I love food.
Omg, good food makes me happy. When I’m done, I’d always want something I don’t usually get everyday. It’s kinda like a treat for myself.
So true, food is so important for our lives. It matters so much to make the right choices!
I agree food is really important!
I find cooking a nice meal to be very fulfilling.
A food page was a great idea! You have a lot of great stuff here.
Your blog is motivational. I never know what to cook! Thanks for the ideas!
Food everywhere! uhmmm smells good!
I think there can’t be enough written about food. You can have as many recipes as people in the world with all their ideas and experiences. Good luck!
Your quotes are quite inspirational. The food categories are spot on
Family time is very important. Indeed Food plays an important aspect in our lives
I agree, food is a great way to connect with people and with memories. During the holidays when I smell cookies baking it reminds me of baking with my great grandmother when I was little, bitter sweet because I miss her but I love having those memories.
So true! And you have quite a collection of articles there. Gonna have to take a closer look at them 🙂
I love food and seriously I love to try out new cuisines also could not help but eat 3 times the same food also.
Anything pasta would probably be my most favorite meal, A traditional Italian Tagliatelle would be the most favorite…
I agree, food is indeed our common ground. I met a lot of people through gatherings and have become good friends with them because of food. Sometimes, I don’t just accept invites but when there’s food involve… chances of me going is 70/30 😀
When I get bored with the same old food I check new recipes and try them. Also having dinner with family is something unique and bonding.
Food sustains us and gives us the energy to stay out while tasking and generally, living. That’s why I started becoming mindful about my food and eating habits. I’m more keen on my recipes and frequency of eating and size of my food portions. It’s amazing to be mindful about food.
I am struggling between food being enjoyed and food being fuel. There must be a balance, right?
Food makes me truly happy. When I’m sad… I like a good meal. When I’m happy… it’s nice to celebrate with food. When I’m tired… I turn to food to lift me up. It is sustenance–we all deserve to enjoy FOOD.
This is a very cool page. It looks like a lot of different foods on here — I will have to go exploring to get ideas.
I love food and have grown to love it even more once I became vegan. I eliminated most chemical crud that masks as food and have lost 125lbs.
My mom has always been a wonderful cook and this is what helped me develop a fine appreciation for food! I don’t cook much in the summer, but I enjoy cooking/baking when the weather gets cooler.
So agree, and I believe everyone, including those who live in the most remote regions and the poorest will have the opportunity to taste good food.
It’s great to have a dedicated section for food. I mean, who doesn’t love to connect over a good meal.
I am looking forward to trying some new recipes! Food is love!!
Food is not only required for sustenance but is an excellent way to make friends, get a conversation started, a peace offering and so many things. A family that dines together stays together is what I strongly believe. Cooking good nutritional food is important for good health of the family.
Food is so important part of our lives. It keeps us strong and I feel it also keeps connected x
Laura
Dinner time is a sacred time in our house. I love this post. Thank you! 🙂
Foods will never ever be a boring topic. I love foods so much..! Especially when it’s about healthy options..
The idea is really awesome, let me know how it goes.
Food makes my world go around! 🙂
Food truly brings everyone together! It is so universal, we all have to eat and we pass legacies with out food!
“Food plays an important role in all of our lives” Truth has been spoken!
I am a foodie! Yayy!!
I really don’t remember the last time I ate solely for sustenance. It is pretty depressing actually. I am addicted and need help.
Yes apart from a common ground, food speaks so much about the culture of a certain place. That’s why I would really try to eat local cuisines whenever I am abroad.
That is true that food brings us together. Most of my cooking skills come from my childhood, I feel very fortunate that I was able to watch my mum cooking, I know that not all children have that experience.
I always love trying new Recipes for my husband and this sounds perfect for him .Thabks for the share
My husband is a big foodie and I would love to try these out for him. Thanks for sharing
I love food! It’s our sustenance as you said and a great common ground fro ur universally no matter the age, nationality or culture! Cooking a lovely meal for others makes me the happiest.
I am such a foodie, this post is great! I feel hungry now, off for a sarnie! lol
Some of my favorite memories are cooking in the kitchen with my grandmother. I’m so glad that we spent that time together while I still had her here with me.
