What is The pasta disaster about?

Afsha is not pleased when her new stepdad, Joe, tries to become part of her life. She would rather keep things as they are, especially when Joe’s attempts to help only make things more awkward. But when a family cooking plan goes spectacularly wrong, Afsha finds herself caught up in a very messy pasta disaster. As the chaos unfolds, she begins to see Joe differently and wonders whether having a stepdad might not be such a bad thing after all.
