“For the Love of Leftovers”
Featured in TABLE Magazine
When I’m feeling nostalgic around the holidays, my mind often wanders to my mom’s homemade rolls. I’d slather those pillowy rolls with butter, and alternate dipping bites into cranberry sauce and the pooling gravy. What I recall most fondly though, was using those rolls to make sandwiches later in the evening. Out would come all the fancy trays covered in foil, and we’d layer the cold turkey, cranberry sauce and fixings. Don’t skip that holiday evening sandwich tradition, but choose your own adventure for every day thereafter because even creatures of habit can tire of the same reheated leftovers.
