I wrote something for me and now I’m sharing it after some editing. Give it a read if you want to hear my take on vulnerability, writing as a teenager vs adult, and a little about when my teacher told me a story about the Beats movement in the 1950s-60s

This holiday season my mom finally wrote down some family recipes and gave it to me and my sister. Now I'm wondering what to do with it. Should I make a family cookbook and digitize the recipes so future generations of my family can have them?

Virgie Martinez, who carried on the legacy of her mother's restaurant in the family garage behind their Bryan Street home and made Mi Cocinita into a 40-year tradition until 2017, has passed at 85 just when we miss her the most, at Christmas. She rolled love and sincerity into every tamal.
