This is the last episode of Season 4 and it is appropriately named too because I think I've moved on from so many things this year already. We discuss our past choices and decisions with moving on as well as give you some tips and tricks how not to get stuck or overthink the idea of moving on. Today I created a dessert inspired by ChefLeen herself and it is an Apple Cheesecake Crumb Pie, which turned out to be really delicious.

Lot's of times we are told what the narrative is in a situation and we throw our common sense out the window to believe it. Sometimes your gut tells you the real narrative and you are just afraid to go against what your are being told. Also today I make a version of a surf and turf using two of my favorite proteins, duck and scallops.
