Same! As the family cook I generally eat what I’m craving when I’m hungry and don’t always wait for the family meal that I’ve prepared.

We have already tasted it, perhaps this is why it’s nice to have others a cook for you, there’s an element of surprise at first bite.

Yum! Just ordered the chili crisp, and appreciate the recommendation and recipe. Looks absolutely delicious.

Hetty Lui McKinnon's avatar

Ooh I hope you love it. It’s so yummy and great for an option that is not too spicy

Ohhh first of all this is the best what-I-eat-in-a-day I've seen. I really appreciate the high-lows (or like whatever, real-lifeiness) of it all. Also, I've never seen that chili crisp brand. Looks great. Thanks for sharing!

After I wrote it and read it back, it sounded unhinged but hey, real life is textured šŸ˜‚
