My ex-wife and I divorced six years ago. It wasn't friendly, and we haven't spoken since. During our marriage she used to make a particular soup whenever I was sick. After the divorce, I tried recreating it from memory and failed repeatedly.
One day I found an old photo of the handwritten recipe in my cloud storage. I saved it in a hidden folder. I'm remarried now and happy, so this isn't about wanting my ex back. But sometimes a person leaves your life and a taste remains attached to a period of it. I don't know how to explain that without sounding disloyal.
