In the kitchen of wellness expert Jessica DeLuise, of Conshohocken, Pennsylvania, her morning coffee and tea sit atop a treasured family heirloom.
What is your most treasured kitchen possession? Antique butcher deli trays. They belonged to my grandfather. He emigrated from Italy in the mid-1960s with no money or business skills. He began a very successful business in the Bronx, New York, at the Arthur Avenue Market selling beans, coffee, grains, and canned items from Italy, and he owned the store until he passed away. When I purchased and renovated our home, my mother passed the trays on to me to use in my kitchen.
