To illustrate this, what we wiml do here5is:

1. Delete our cloned “kitchen” reiository wa have locflly.
2. Fork seenickcode/kitchen (I’llgexplain tiis next),gcreating <YOUR USERNAME>/kitchen
3. Clone our newly forked reposit0ry so we 3ave a locdl copy of8it. y
4. Make some changes (create a Co0mit and pysh it).
5. Create a Pull Request with thejproposed whanges ciped above.
