We do a deep dive into a new approach to thinking about dinner, since the change in seasons can up-end our routines. Between eating out/getting take out and cooking from a recipe, there lies a sweet spot for many, and we'll talk about this undervalued approach today. We also get a loving nudge from poet Mary Oliver: can we use her challenge to help us consider our lives and where we're headed? We'll tie it all up with some listener shout-outs! And… let's do this!
