Help with finding quotes from Like Water for Chocolate?

I need quotes from the book Like Water for Chocolate to support my thesis: The recurring food motif creates an outlet for self expression, giving one a sense of freedom even in an oppressive environment.

So basically I just need 3 quotes about how food shows self expression and 3 quotes about how food makes one feel free even in a not-so-free environment.

I already have one quote for self expression, which is “Everything on the kitchen side of that door…was completely hers——it was Tita’s realm” (7).

Thanks so much to everyone who can help. It’s just hard finding quotes. :/
