Look, I'm not saying that I'm completely innocent in the saga of my Great 2020 Waistline Expansion, but can we all agree that those of us suffering from a bit of lockdown bloat should get cut a little bit of slack?

After the last couple of weeks, Amy needs a bit of comfort cheesecake, okay? And she needs to use up her last box of Girl Scout Thin Mints to make the crust.
So, too, is the fact that, besides said cheesecake fixings, my grocery order was devoid of other unhealthy snacks.
I went into this with a plan, dammit.
It's simply that maybe a global pandemic, economic and climate crises, and a really stressful American election season are enough reason to let the judgment go for a bit.
People are doing their best, right?
And now if you'll excuse me, I have a cake to make.
