This week, we'll take a look at some food-inspired ways to make this unusual holiday season a little brighter. Thanksgiving has come and gone, and for some, it was bittersweet without in-person gatherings with loved ones. Christmas, Hanukkah, Kwanzaa and New Year's Eve also might not have the usual bevy of family and friends. So, how can we keep things merry and bright as we finish out this challenging year? Cooking can be part of the answer. On this week's podcast, AJC dining editor Ligaya Figueras spoke with a few culinarians –  Cynthia Graubart, Chadwick Boyd and Ashley English – to see how they're making the best of the holidays.

Well, I have just the person to help with all of that. Ashley English is the author of 11 books, including the Homemade Living book series, which showcases a variety of topics related to small-scale homesteading (including Keeping Chickens, Canning & Preserving, Keeping Bees, Home Dairy, and Home Apothecary).
