Welcome, everyone, to my delicious little corner of Cosmopolitan. Let's kick things off with my favorite weekend ritual. It's a low-fuss, high-reward version of selfcare that normally involves me crawling back into my unmade bed, still in pajamas, to rewatch episodes of The O.C. Tucked into my cozy duvet cave, I have a TV tray on my lap-holding something very eggy and very cheesy-and a big ol' glass of creamy cold brew in my hand. (Pausing to say I see you, people screaming, "But the crumbs!" to which I respond that it's still worth it, and in my case, what the tray doesn't catch, my dog Miso definitely does.)
Hi, it's me-recipe developer, dip queen, guest judge on Netflix's EasyBake Battle, and now your resident food whisperer.

One summer 2009 night, Julia's manager pulled her aside. A silver-haired gentleman's date was being kind of loud and messy-Julia should intervene, be extra nice to him. She got the okay to take the man up to the roof for a quiet smoke. This guy must be a big deal, she thought.
