If anyone reading this has lived in a stranger neighborhood than the one belonging to the Kids on the Block, the writer promises humbly to bake you a special batch of sugar cookies. Unfortunately, to cash in on that limited-time deal, you’ll have to read Recipe, a brand new short story about teeth, taxidermy, nickels, nunneries, Zoloft, and the alienation of being an apathetic, anxious, underthinker. Enjoy your stay!
