What do we do when we face a world that isn't the one we planned for? What do we do when our brief moments of joy are robbed? What do we do when accidents happen? I don't know. I don't know what we do. But I know what I've done. I've given myself a little more grace. I've reached out for love. I've reached out for guidance. I've reached out for therapy. And I've celebrated the mundane accomplishments I used to take for granted. A shower. A made bed. And a roasted chicken.

Baked Chicken Over Rice & Why I’m Mad At Campbell’s Soup
This Baked Chicken Recipe is the first one I noticed the change on. This is why I've used this particular blog post to make my strong feelings known. There's nothing to be done. Except maybe cook this dish perfectly and laugh into the sky because I figured you out, Campbell's! You thought you could destroy it, but you've only made it stronger.
Crisp Air & Nutmeg Alfredo Chicken
This recipe reminds me that cyclical can be fresh. That old can find something new. That fall will be fall even when it isn't. It starts with a recipe my mother rediscovered and told me about, that I tweaked and ultimately added to until I made it my own.
