Me too! I still remember leaving a Thanksgiving dinner with my grandmother 30+ years ago and her first comment was how the host had clearly served BOUGHTEN PIE for dessert. The horror!
My inbox is full of Heather C Richardson and Joyce Vance and YOU! Wish I had opened you first, but maybe I saved the best for last. I just added thighs and boughten salsa to my grocery list!
Your writing was there for me 18 years ago when I was trying to figure out how to be a person who is a mom, and here it is again when I am figuring out how to be a person when the world is on fire. The now 18 year old will love the chicken (and be able to make it for his college mates!). And I am deeply grateful for the your good company in my inbox.
1) This article feeds my soul, so thank you for that!
2) I had to screenshot BOUGHTEN and send it in a group text to my own Birdie and her bestie. Bestie uses the word avidly and it is a hotly contested term betwixt them. Imagine how vindicated she feels now! ❤️ THANK YOU CATHERINE, you're the best ❤️
Hiya! Love your writing!! Crazy coincidence, my friend James gave me a pint jar of his '24 tomatillo salsa THE DAY BEFORE you published this chicken recipe. (Cooking now, smells incredible!!!) Hope we can catch up one day soon! ♥️💃xo
I found you again! As my two morph through another stage you and your family popped into my head and I looked you up and I’m so so happy I did. This is EXACTLY what I need right now. Comfort, hope, and food. The soft and sticky gingerbread recipe is still stuck on my fridge.
In a world full of noise and fear and Teslas, thank you for helping us to answer the most mundane, but profound of eternal questions: what the fuck are we going to make for dinner? Illia Chicken it is. One bright spot today.
Sending this gentleman a Tesla full of thoughts, prayers, and dicks.
BOUGHTEN SALSA. Made me laugh.

hahaha Yes! When only that tense will do!
Same!
Is it okay to say I LOVE YOU? You are such a bright light in this hot mess of a country right now. Thanks for making me laugh.
Your posts are the only ones I heart and THEN read. Because I know in the end, I will heart.
May every chicken recipe hereforth include the actual step of boiling hands after handling 🙏 I've never felt more seen as a home chef 🥹🏆🏆🏆
YOUR SIGN IS AMAZING

Yes! That's my inbox too. Thanks for making me feel less alone.

“Heart first, then read.” So sweet, @Lindsey DeLoach Jones, and so accurate.

Genius recipe resulting in exceptionally good chicken. Thank you Illia and Catherine!
