You’ve made it to Thursday. For the last hour, I have been anxiously checking the clock to see if it’s an appropriate time to eat lunch. I did something completely unthinkable yesterday. After purchasing an overpriced chicken sandwich, I saved one half and kept it in the fridge so that I would have lunch today. As far as I know, only extremely well-adjusted and self-controlled people do this kind of thing, and I can count on one hand the number of times I’ve had the wherewithal to do this before. I’m not asking for your praise or admiration, but I am asking for your sympathy, as I wait to finish what I started yesterday. Today’s stories cover everything from Turks and Caicos to fish soup to Eric Kim’s new Korean-American cookbook to a $12,000 ring made from Hidden Valley Ranch dressing to a camping emergency kit. What a time to be alive. I have to run. The sandwich calls. - [Ned Riseley, Senior Copywriter]( [ [( travel [] [Turks + Caicos + You = Paradise]( Turks and Caicos are an incredibly dynamic duo, a veritable Mary Kate & Ashley Olsen of Caribbean islands.
