"Food for me was a connecting link to my grandmother, to my childhood, to my past. And what I found out is that for everybody, food is a connector to their roots, to their past in different ways. It gives you security; it gives you a profile of who you are, where you come from." - Lidia Matticchio Bastianich
Some plants/trees remind me of Mumbai. Bougainvillea is one such plant. When I spotted it at our local nursery here, I bought it immediately. This plant connects me to my roots.
