Another masterpiece from my sis @HelenLongstreth - trying to make sense out of a life seen through acid-washed polaroids, when you're lost in your late 20s and surrounded by broken people and bad advice and everything is too bright ♥️

"Sausage pasta was for Sundays or birthdays... it was a meal to say well done, or don’t worry. Welcome back, or so long. Sorry, or I love you."

I wrote this piece about my dad, his struggles, and what cooking meant to him and us as a family.

Thank you @NewYorker
