Episode 62 – The cooking of the cookbook – As the Incense Burns 🔥
On this episode… I'm thinking out loud.
In the run up to this forthcoming cookbook, something to consider. A cookbook, recipes? Are truly love letters and historical documents, especially when you think of the love and stories shared by way of a meal. This truth has been something that has echoed for me in my role as a genealogist and a chef.
On Episode 16 of the podcast
As the Incense Burns
I speak on the
role as the
storyteller
of my
people.
Being the Ancestor Whisperer –
is a lonely path sometimes.
Why?
Because everyone
won’t love you.
Sabotage, disaffection and treason
often collides with loyalty
to those who
allowed us to be.
The Elders warned me:
“… It’s gonna be some of our own that will get in yo’ way, just remember who you is. There is a storm coming… our people gonna need what
Word from the Elders…
we got to give you …”
And I obeyed.
Take a listen to as I reflect on the winding path… one that wasn’t supposed to be.
