Today we have some stories about trouble. That’s not a big deal - most stories revolve around trouble, but we’re playing with the idea that trouble can brew and come out with different outcomes. Sometimes trouble can turn into more trouble, sometimes it boils down and ends up better than it started, and sometimes it results in something profoundly delicious. In every case, there’s something to be learned.
