Rants: Is it just me, or does every time I decide to try a new recipe, I end up feeling…

I bought a fancy cookbook because I was feeling all adult and inspired, thinking I'd whip up gourmet meals like a pro. Spoiler alert: my first attempt at homemade pasta ended with me covered in flour, my cat looking like it just survived a snowstorm, and a kitchen so messy that I almost called in a SWAT team. Now I just heat up store-bought lasagna and convince my friends I'm “going for the rustic...

I have a confession: I low-key enjoy scrolling through my high school friends' social media just to see if any of them are as lost as I am.
