A little cookbook update!⁠
⁠
Chef Billy came last week to help me prepare the final two recipes for the book. And when I say help, I mean I sat and drank wine while he played in my kitchen and recreated Dad's trout almondine as well as a stuffed trout. They both turned out delicious. Dad would be proud. (That's him in the first photo)⁠
⁠
I had a little setback a couple of weeks ago. My program crashed and blew away my file, causing me to have to copy/paste from a saved pdf into a new one. Fortunately, I only lost about two weeks of new content. The silver lining is (because I always find one 😉) I've had to go back through each page, and I've made some changes I'm quite happy with. And I'm still on track for a late spring launch. 🤞⁠

The last line of this song I have listened to countless times, really stuck with me when I heard it a few days ago. It got me thinking about one of the greatest gifts we can give.⁠
Grace.⁠
Before rushing in to judge, or scold, or teach a lesson, pause a minute and think about how differently the conversation might go if it's approached with grace and compassion. ⁠
⁠
Jackson Browne wrote this song when he was sixteen years old.⁠
I think teenagers need the gift of grace perhaps more than anyone. They are well aware of their shortcomings. ⁠
Build them up.🧡⁠
