Sixty-five recipes and thirty essays from Carla Lalli Music, the James Beard Award winner behind Where Cooking Begins and That Sounds So Good. Written in the year after her 24-year marriage ended, the book follows what she craved and what she cooked to answer it: Lemony Chickpea Stew with Rice, a Personal Pot of Beans and Greens, her mom's Saturday Night Alfredo, the Extremely Floofy Vanilla Pancakes she makes for her kids, and the Crispy-Skinned Fish with Olives and Lemons she learned on the line in New York restaurant kitchens.

Revealing, relatable, and funny, it makes the case that food is more than fuel and that yes, we should eat our feelings.
