I'm your host, Andrew McGivern, for May 20th.Now, let’s talk about something serious — eggs, bacon, and cheese in a pastry crust. Yes, today is National Quiche Lorraine Day, a celebration of the dish that manages to be breakfast, lunch, and dinner all in one elegant, golden-brown circle. Honestly, if there were a Mount Rushmore of versatile foods, quiche would definitely be up there — probably next to pizza and the humble sandwich.And to pair with this celebration of culinary sophistication, today’s quote comes from none other than George Bernard Shaw, who said:"There is no sincerer love than the love of food."Now, that’s a truth baked to perfection.Let’s face it — food doesn’t ghost you. It doesn’t leave your texts on “read.” It shows up when you need comfort, celebration, or just a reason to pretend you’re busy so you can avoid an awkward phone call. And quiche? Quiche is like the friend who brings wine, listens to your problems, and also brought dessert just in case. It’s the real MVP of mealtimes.George Bernard Shaw wasn’t a chef — he was a playwright. But even he understood that food speaks a language deeper than words. Sharing a meal, or even just enjoying one by yourself, is an act of self-love, of connection, of living in the moment. It’s hard to be fake around good food. You can’t pretend not to like something when your eyes are rolling back in your head from sheer deliciousness.So today, as you consider your meal options, maybe honor the occasion with a Quiche Lorraine. Or two. It’s not just about the eggs and the bacon — it’s about celebrating that pure, sincere joy that comes with every bite.Because the love of food? That’s the kind of love that never disappoints.But... all in moderation or you might be showing up on January 1st with a HUGE goal to accomplish and your beloved Quiche would be off the menu for a while.My daughter made some unbelievably tasty Quiche Lorraine for dinner the other night. They've been going to our friends cooking classes at the community centre and have learned to make some really, and I mean really delicious stuff. Last night my other daughter made Chicken Parmeson and it was so good I had to pinch myself to check if it was real or just a dream.So as I sit back and dream about food I think that will do it for today.I'm Pizza McGivern, I mean Andrew McGivern signing off for now but I’ll be bacon tomorrow. I mean back tomorrow, same pod time, same pod station with another Daily Quiche. Croissant... Quote!
