SSCO Cookbook
SSCO is collecting recipes for a neighborhood cookbook!
This community cookbook will not only contain recipes from your neighbors, but will contain your food-related drawings, poems, and stories, and will be a neighborhood food resource available to any resident!
Sharing food and recipes is a way of connecting with others across difference, time, and space. We would be honored if you would share a recipe that is meaningful to you, or simply your go-to quick dinner!

"I need to hear the bumping of pestles making percussion with sunrise and twilight. I need the scratch of grating tubers and the grinding of spices on stone. I need the sonic world of the ancestors, lullabies said while babies are fed, bawdy songs as the land is smoothed for planting. I need to understand the sound of the wind in the rice and the complexities of the yam mounds intercropped to save space. I need the rustle of the oil palm fronds so I can hear the generations speak."
- Michael W. Twitty
