Even the best recipes change over time<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
That apple pie Great Aunt Bernie brings every year?<\/p>\n
She picks it up from the nearby corner store, puts it in a pie tin, and takes all the credit<\/p>\n
But no one ever seems to mind, it gets eaten anyway<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
What about the green bean casserole that Grandpa makes? Oh yes, that nasty thing<\/p>\n
Covered in so much cream of mushroom soup<\/p>\n
He’s always so proud, so we each take a small scoop and hope for the best<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
And what about Cousin Mike? Well, he only brings himself<\/p>\n
He’s uninterested in spending time with the family<\/p>\n
Staying for the meal then leaving without a trace<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
One day this will change. Family will pass on, the young will grow up<\/p>\n
One day, the goopy casserole and the corner store apple pie will be missing from the table<\/p>\n
And one day, a new recipe will appear courtesy of Cousin Mike<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
