I don't know much about Hestia and I want to learn. My grandmother used to talk about her all the time- I don't know why!
I looked her up in Theoi.com:
HESTIA was the virgin goddess of the hearth (both private and municipal) and the home. As the goddess of the family hearth she also presided over the cooking of bread and the preparation of the family meal.
My grandmother loved to cook. Is this probably why my grandmother would reference this goddess?
