With the recent unsavory SCOTUS decision veering us further away from our experiment in democracy (after stripping women of their bodily rights and continuing the greed-soaked assault on our environment... but we digress), we feel sad and angry not celebratory this year. Then there is the divided body politik, the culture wars bent on keeping weath/ power / class unchecked. Seems to us sharing a meal together is our only common ground. We'll be making your recipes, which never, ever fail us --- which, to us, is worthy of celebration in no small way. Thank you, Alison, for the steadfastness in deliciousness, for providing a guide to comfort on these very dark days. 🤍🩵❤️
