A Blessing For Cooking

All that I have comes from my Mother!

I give myself over to this pot

My thoughts are on the good

The healty properties of the food

My hands are balanced, I season well!

I give myself over to this pot

Life is being given to me

I commit to sharing, I feed others

I feed she who feeds me

I myself give over to this gift

I adorn this table with food

I invite lovers and friends to come share.

I thank you for this gift,

All that I have comes from my Mother!
