Hi Neighbor!
Â
There’s a cookbook author and food blogger I follow who’s recorded what she’s cooked or eaten for dinner every night for the past 25 years. Every night! On July 12, 1999, she and her boyfriend (now husband) dined on sour chicken stir fry in their Brooklyn Heights apartment. On September 11, 2001, for obvious reasons, she never made it home for dinner. On May 30, 2009, she served panko-crusted sole with chopped salad to her husband and two young daughters at their home in Westchester. And so on. When I first read about this, I couldn’t help but think about all the dinners I wanted to forget. Just last week I mixed up the salt and sugar in my grandmother’s spaghetti sauce recipe, rendering it inedible for everyone except my middle daughter who begged for seconds.
