The news article highlighted the success of "Grandpa's Granola," the exact recipe his grandfather had used. The image of the granola on the screen felt like a physical blow. He sat down, a leaden weight in his chest.

He could still feel the warmth of his grandfather’s hand on his shoulder as he showed him the steps. He inhaled deeply, trying to gather himself.

He opened his cupboard and found the oats, nuts, and honey. He decided to begin preparing the granola, as a way to hold on to the memories. The act felt sacred and restorative.
