The Great Cheese Takeover:
This article is biased—and I’m fine with that. I do not like cheese. Not in casseroles, not on sandwiches, and not melted over anything pretending to be healthy. I even order my pizza without it, which most people consider a culinary crime. I also don’t love cooking, even though I’m good at it. For me, it’s not joy—it’s pressure. The kitchen feels like a performance space where precision meets anxiety. My mother, a chef-level cook, thrived there; I definitely don’t. About twice a year, though, I feel a strange urge to create something. That’s why I follow a handful of cooks on Facebook. Sadly, unless they’re baking sweets—which don’t tempt me at all—the excitement dies the moment cheese appears. It smothers the color, the texture, the intention.

’Tis the Season for Apple Stack Cake in Appalachia
Apple Stack Cake holds a special place in Appalachian food traditions. Often served during Thanksgiving and Christmas, this layered dessert reflects the ingenuity and resourcefulness of mountain cooks. Unlike typical cakes, Apple Stack Cake is made from several thin layers of cake stacked with a spiced apple filling. The layers are firm, more like a cookie than a soft sponge, and the filling made from apples, sugar, and warming spices softens the cake over time.

Pomegranate
Sometimes the simplest foods are the most powerful, and pomegranates are a perfect example of that. These ruby-red seeds, called arils, are tiny bursts of flavor that balance sweetness and tartness in every bite. I’ve always loved the way they look — like little jewels sparkling in a bowl — but I didn’t start eating them regularly until I began focusing on a healthier lifestyle.
