I was so excited to meet this woman and have a little chat about how food and soul come together, no matter what kind of food you like or are used to whether it is Israeli, American, spicy, Moroccan, or Italian... food unites people. There is nothing better than sitting around a table over a great meal and coming together, in fact, Jamie proposes to go to the Knesset and make a cooking show for all the politicians to join her and get over their differences and sit together for a meal. I loved the idea, now we need to see if it works!

Thank you Jamie for this great interview, I hope you all enjoy it.
