Labor Day offers us the opportunity to thank those whose labor infuses our lives with well-being.
Everyone says “I love you” a little differently. Some say it over the phone, some in person, and others don’t say a word. For ceramicist, fiddle player, guitarist, and Bred in the Bone sous-chef Sara Begin, her most heartfelt declaration is in her cooking.
