Personal Passage:
My grandmother’s (Doņa Emilia) salad dressing, naturally, reminds me of her, who I met when I was thirteen after I left Cuba to come live with her in the United States. Her sweetness and warm nature were a great comfort to my brother and me during those long months while we were separated from our parents.
