Stir: My Broken Brain and the Meals That Brought Me Home by Jessica Fechtor

5.0

I found this book comforting and moving on a fundamental level. Fechtor writes a lot about “little things” in this book, and how much of a privilege it is to care about them. The way she describes the simple joys and everyday comforts in food, home, and friends is beautiful, unique, and touching. Especially during the the COVID pandemic, it’s wonderful to explore the mindset of making a big deal out of our small delights, because then we can be grateful for them and realize just how much happiness the “little things” bring us
