There’s a lot of secret family recipes being whipped up this time of year.
The best thing about the secret family recipe is that it’s called the secret family recipe.
And the point of the secret family recipe is to simply enjoy it, not guess what the secret is.
The secret cookie recipe, the soup, the cocktail, the sweet potatoes…maybe it’s just the recipe on the back of the box or bottle or maybe it’s truly a secret and never been written down and only passed down verbally to the oldest child in the family.
In any case if you have a secret like this, no need to hold onto it for fear that someone might figure it out or steal it. But rather, share it so that others can have the joy of enjoying (rather than knowing) the secret.
