The first result promised simplicity: starter salad, grilled steak with herb butter, roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, chocolate mousse for dessert. "Simple enough," I thought, the lie tasting bitter even in my own mind. Right? The produce section was my first battlefield.

The scent hits me instantly, warm and rich. I mix until they are creamy but still have just a little texture. Comfort in a bowl.
