Grapefruit

What do you love now, that you hated when you were younger? “Try this,” my mother said, pushing a bowl of sliced fruit in front of me, “it’s good for you.” Is it? Nine year old me stared at the grapefruit sliced in half on my plate. The absolute nerve of her, dusting it with…

Worth Every Penny

What’s the most money you’ve ever spent on a meal? Was it worth it? Right before lockdown in 2020, I went out during restaurant week here in Denver. I really wanted to try Forage, which is an Asian inspired place here. The plates for restaurant week were $25 or $35 a plate. I had (unwanted)…
