A hot dog is in the same equivalence class as a taco. A pop tart is a calzone. Quesadillas are very close cousins of grilled cheese sandwiches. Thanks for coming to my ted talk.

My first post on this platform is to express gratitude. Gratitude for the people in my life. My family, my friends, and all the colleagues I've been fortunate enough to work with. Thank you fam
