Hi! Here’s what I had going on this week…

Reading

Seattle’s Leaders Let Scientists Take the Lead. New York’s Did Not, New Yorker.

Friends Are Breaking Up Over Social Distancing, The Atlantic.

Nannies Tell the Truth About Working During the Coronavirus, The Cut.

Cooking

We’ve been roasting potatoes, using a combination of this NYT Cooking recipe and this one from Smitten Kitchen; they are great with eggs, bacon, and veggies, or with roasted vegetables and Aidells sausages. I’m also loving pickled onions on everything (see also: Sauce Theory).

Have a good Sunday night. 🌱
