When businesses and restaurants closed down in response to the COVID-19 pandemic in March 2020, many people returned to their kitchens to provide meals for their families. The endless social media photos of perfectly presented dishes from hot eateries was replaced with home kitchen experiments and experiences. This collection of recipes comes from the internet community of Kat Robinson, an Arkansas-based food historian and travel author. With no restaurants to share or travel experiences to obtain, Robinson was inspired by the efforts of her friends in creating dishes on their own. This collection of more than 80 recipes from 43 friends covers the spectrum, from easy to assemble to complex creations, everything from high-end delights to recipes from the deep woods, complete with photographs from many of the cook contributors.
