    The Good, The Bad, and The Ugly

    I always start cleaning in the kitchen. I think it’s the place I like the most in my home. In here, I’ve created memories of burnt food, bad ingredients, failed recipes, and cooking with those that I love. In here, I scrub, I use too much soap. I wipe and wipe and wipe until I… Read more
