Plot or Character Driven: Character

Strong character development: Yes

Loveable characters: Yes

Diverse cast of characters: Yes

Flaws of characters a main focus: Yes

I appreciate the relationship between meals/eating and vulnerability. The way characters show their love and care for each other. I was surprised by the vignette approach but I think it worked well. I think it paralleled the larger idea about the moments of our lives and how even small things add up.
