shitty

My fellow cooks and I relied on whisper networks to warn of shitty bosses and terrible kitchens, but we never dreamed of social media shaming.

I don’t need to share our entire calendar of launches this year and then everybody do shitty also-ran crap versions of what we do and say they’re great.

It’s one centered on all the plucky bread-makers and Zoom-partiers and amateur interior designers and newfound plant lovers who made the most of a shitty time spent social distancing from most of their communities.

A small gift of this shitty year was the chance to devote time and energy to cooking a duck or leg of lamb or beef Wellington or bo ssam — or anything, really, but a fussy, large, bland bird.

The 2020 baking boom was one long training session for turning out dozens upon dozens of snickerdoodles, thumbprints, rugelach, and brownies in the last month of this shitty year.
