That is the greatest hospitality story ever told, Christopher. Beautiful. And I am beyond a late bloomer. I'm finally okay with it. It's almost like waiting to unwrap a present. xo

I've opened up Adam Reiner's piece and am saving it for a moment when I'm emotionally prepared to ugly-cry. It look like a profoundly moving read.

On the topic of roundup newsletters: I read a lot of of these, many of them containing cultural or product recommendations. I always appreciate discovering new TV shows and movies, but often find those newsletters to be somewhat-forgettable gateways to discovering something else. What I appreciate about your roundups is not only the quality and diversity of what you're sharing, but the depth of your thoughts on each—to me, that's what sets a roundup newsletter apart.

Thanks Maddie! I always try to ask myself "would I want to read this?" when I write my posts, which hopefully helps with the quality part. Do you have any favorite newsletters?

100% agree on approaching your own writing as a reader.

In addition to all of the newsletters you shared, which are fabulous, I really enjoy Paul Millerd's Boundless newsletter (which explores our collective relationship to work) as an example of the "kind of a roundup, but better" format!
