This is 'Soul Food' for those who are in grief with the death of the loved one!

Sautéed Mustard Green & Swiss Chard with Cashew & Thirteen Raspberries!

I made this for YOU because YOU are in grief! I used bitter vegetables of all the sadness, all the heart-broken tears, all the misery, all the sorrowfulness and all the grief. I cooked with my love to cook it down and added Cashew & Thirteen Raspberries.

Why Thirteen Raspberries????

Thirteen is Moon's number...when Moon orbits mother earth Thirteen times---four seasons are passing... Spring !!!!♥♥☆.`❥•♪♫ ♥♥

Summer !!!!♥♥☆.`❥•♪♫ ♥♥

Fall !!!!♥♥☆.`❥•♪♫ ♥♥

And winter!!!!♥♥☆.`❥•♪♫ ♥♥

Then another four seasons...and then another four seasons...and then another four seasons...

Death is not the end....Death is not the final!

We will come again!!!!!!!♥♥☆.`❥•♪♫ ♥♥

We will meet again!!!!!!!♥♥☆.`❥•♪♫ ♥♥



I used Raspberries because the taste of Raspberries are sweet and subtle, which may help you to the soft and sweetness of good memories that will dominate the other flavors in the end, in addition to Cashew's sweet, creamy, and nutty flavor.



I found that the loss of a loved one is most stressful event and can cause more psychological crisis and physical damages. I knew from my own experience during the mourning of my mom's death. But, we need to find closure and a healthy way to say good bye…

Even from sudden and unexpected death.



I am doing this because I saw my mom when we lost my brother from the tragic death. He was only the age of 12and died unexpectedly when I was 6 years old. The tragic death of my brother was my mom's biggest scar. I grew up watching my mother crying over her remorse in the bed, in the kitchen, in her heart, and in her spirit. She drowned herself in sorrow. My other siblings and I have carried the scar from the tragic death and my mother’s remorse until now because we could not do anything. We were helpless to comfort my devastated mother. I was too young to help my mom’s cope. But, now I am old enough to understand her and I want to comfort her.

So….Now, I consider YOU as my mom to comfort YOU because YOU are my mom. So I made this 'Soul Food' for YOU! Take Thirteen Raspberries and remember we are in circle...cycle...and recycle!



When you are ready, start writing about your loved one a poem or a letter and describe what he meant to YOU.



Many *hugs* to you.

Many *love* to you.

Many *peace* to you.

I wish you strength as you mourn your loss, and may you find peace inside.

From Your dautgher!!!
