Well I don't know about you but for me, these stand true. I always and naturally experience a  strong craving of a certain kind of food during a certain kind of event in my life. It could be anything. Daily or even once in a blue moon. But it always stands true. I have and will always be someone for whom food is more important than anything in life. I believe for me it is greatly influenced by my humongous family too and for a fact that I have lived in 2 different countries all my life, a lot of my food patterns,choices and knowledge comes greatly from these 2 elements. It varies for everyone. And hence I now have some events in my life associated to specific kinds of food itself. It excites me when I know there are celebrations that occur because of the food associated with it. I can watch and read about it for hours and hours together and not get one bit overwhelmed. And that's what I wish to pen about. 
I invite u to also share in your memories on these various occasions in this blog of mine. It would be great to know how versatile some foods portray in different walks of life and for different people. I know of food memories that my grandparents have that have made me like a lot of them too. As for the others, I urge u to go ahead and make those memories with that food if you don't have any. Do it once u read this if u may. They are always pleasant even if the loss of a near and dear one is associated to it. 
I will dedicate this write up to different people who influenced me in my life with food, seasons that changed food, events and occasions associated with it and most importantly, about that particular dish itself. I know for a fact that I'm not moving a mountain here with things but for a fact that I breathe food to many people who know me is so fundamental of my Being. I have converted people to like and unlike certain kinds of food, made them come a mile with me because I've convinced them that if not done, theirs and my mere existence in this world is unworthy. And I'm dramatic, which is not only food related but otherwise also. I don't promise a systematic one either because I believe that everyday some event or the other occurs or even a different craving and they themselves are so varied, so why this?? 
Not promising to provide a recipe /image for every piece I write but will try my best. . You can always help me if u wish too. Post it either to my blog or facebook mail. 

Here's to a journey with something you and I cant live without... May your life be filled with Food... Food... and lots more food!!
