This is my response to Keeley Schroder’s May 2023 Writing Prompt, Day 22: What’s the best meal you’ve ever eaten?
I apologize in advance for the length of this post. Once I start writing about something that I’m passionate about, I can barely stop. Feel free to tackle it the best way you like: with short breaks in between parts, or read half now and half tomorrow. Whatever, I don’t mind.
PS: Most of the YouTube videos linked in this post are there just for the thumbnails, as I could not find free copyrighted images for the old household items. But if you do view any of them, please stay on this page while you do. That way, you will help me more since it will count as reading time. Thank you!
