Here’s the thing: leftovers are more than food—they’re a second chance. A chance to slow down, to repurpose, to be resourceful. That turkey in your fridge represents a meal shared, a table full of voices, and the quiet satisfaction of making things last.
So don’t let it go to waste, but don’t let it go to danger either. Mark your calendar, trust the science, and enjoy every bite within the window. And if all else fails? There’s always pizza for dinner—and that’s okay, too.
