1540 - Food: Costa's Homemade Spaghetti; Friendship

0.027mNovember 23, 1984

Rogers visits the home of music director and close friend John Costa, who is preparing a pasta dinner. As the all-out effort for Northwood comes to a close, Bob tells Daniel the truth about the "vegetable soup tree". Wrapping up for the week, Mister Rogers talks about different kinds of food: "Music...is food for the hearing. And paintings and beautiful scenery are food for seeing. And books are food for the soul. Loving other people is food for the spirit." Mister Rogers then sings Many Ways to Say I Love You.
