Honouring Loved Ones Through Recipes: A Heartfelt Invitation
Losing someone dear to us leaves a huge hole in our lives, but it also provides an opportunity to celebrate their life in meaningful ways. One beautiful way to keep their memory alive is through recipes—those cherished dishes that evoke nostalgia, warmth, and connection. Because of the power these memories of shared meals have in our lives we would love to invite you to create and share recipes that honour your loved ones.
Our sense of smell transports us instantly to moments we hold dear. Imagine the comforting scent of your grandmother’s apple pie wafting through the kitchen—the same pie she lovingly baked for family gatherings. By recreating that recipe, you not only savour the flavours but also evoke her presence.
We Invite You: Food & Chat
On Wednesday, 17th July 2024 between 10:30am – 2pm, Ashford & Tenterden Umbrella is opening its doors to the wider local community. We welcome you to create your special family recipe and bring it with you where you can then share food with others and have a chat. Trying each other’s special family food and reminiscing is a great way to bring people together. Enjoying fellowship around food can also bring a boost to your mental wellbeing. We look forward to seeing you then and sampling your memorable recipes.
Your Invitation: Share Your Recipe
We invite you to participate in our project. Email us your cherished recipe, along with a brief description of why it holds a special place in your heart. Whether it’s your grandmother’s dumplings or your best friend’s chocolate cake, or your go-to recipe when you visit a friend to comfort them. Let’s weave a tapestry of flavours and memories. Together, we’ll celebrate the lives that continue to shape ours, one recipe at a time. We will be displaying your recipes on our social media and on our website shortly.
