If ‘All We Need is Love’, I think the world would use an extra-dose right about now. I’ve still much to learn in this life, but I do know that when life has dragged me down lower then I possibly thought I could go, leaning harder into love (for myself, for my partner, for my people who need no impressions at all, for things that re-kickstart my heart) is how I’ve gotten through any of it. As we enter the ‘Month of Love’, and whether that reality makes you gag or gush, enjoying food made from the heart with the people we love most could be a collective love language. L-O-V-E has always been served here, so I’ve rounded up all of our Love-Themed Food Ideas (from appetizers to desserts) to inspire some easy Heart’s Day At-Home/Date Night/anytime Family Lovefest food-making with your loves and Cupid Crew. LOVE is the best ingredient – buon appetito con amore!
