Moving Portraits: How Food Saved My Family
Darya Pino: Sharing Good Food at the Holidays from Moving Portraits on Vimeo.
My friends over at Moving Portraits asked if I would share one reason the holidays are special to me, so I sat down with them (and Toaster) last week.
The holidays are one of the few times in the year I get to visit my dad, whom I love more than anything. This is the story about how my trips home for the holidays helped him transform his diet, and save his life. This is the success story I’m most proud of at Summer Tomato by far.

Beautiful. Thank you for sharing!
Beautiful stuff and great food for thought for when my parents visit me for Christmas! Just out of interest, what breed is your dog? Just gorgeous! I want one!
He’s a mini labradoodle and he’s the best, sweetest, most adorable dog I’ve ever met.
You should be proud!
I think I’m more relieved than proud, but thanks so much.
I am the Proud one and so very very lucky to have this marvelous and accomplished woman as my only daughter and my eldest child. It really doesn’t get any better than this! ddymichael

I have been smiling all day. Thanks to everyone involved for sharing this. I am so charmed by the purchase of “all the vegetables”.
And Toaster’s pretty cute, too.
That was a great blog post. You’ve given me the tools to help my mom fight off diabetes (all while making me a better and more knowledgeable cook). I’m deeply grateful. Thank you.
