Anything you want people to know about?
According to the USDA's latest Household Food Insecurity in the United States report, more than 35 million people in the United States struggled with hunger in 2019. I find this staggering in what is thought to be a "first world country."

Music is definitely a must while cooking in the Cruz household but my favorites include Los Amigos Invisibles songs "Stay" and "La Que Me Gusta."
