I woke up still rattled by the 2 a.m. messages from my well-intentioned but definitely all-over-the-map sibling, so...

I immediately messaged a friend here I haven't seen in a while. I *love* cooking for others, but haven't had much of a chance, with my own "people" away for two years.

Now, to celebrate her new job & apartment, I'll be hopping over with a cast iron skillet in two weeks to make a decadent lunch with wine & dessert. 🤞

Could not be happier to have something to look forward to.
