Most people learn how to eat and what to eat from their mothers. Marjorie Jane Sullivan of Ballardvale, Mass. taught me:

1. wheat not white
2. phooey to “tonic” (sodas)
3. vegetables = yum
4. If you scrape the mold off the cheez, it’s good as new.
5. “just try a bite”

These principles were very wise, and also fostered an enthusiasm for food and nutrition. You couldn’t ask for a nicer gift.

Happy Mother’s Day!
