The concept of the "midlife crisis" has been the source of jokes for decades now, but for some people, the realization that they've entered their middle years can conjure up conflicting, often unexpected, feelings. For some, it is a time of contentment-a period of self-acceptance and a general feeling of stability-or a time where things are slowing down just enough to allow some reflection on who we are and who we want to be moving forward. For others, it can be a time of angst, reminiscent of the transition to adulthood. Regardless of how we react to the knowledge that we're leaving our youth behind us, recognizing that this is where we are in life can be an incredible catalyst for us to make positive changes in areas of our lives that maybe aren't quite all we'd like them to be.
This food and travel memoir recounts one woman's decision to make just such a change.
