What a wonderful article. That Petite Nate` reference took me back to my childhood and reminded me of the Jean Nate` bottle that was in our bathroom.

While I do enjoy these newsletter, I will say that I do miss the NYT Cooking and BA videos.

Keep up the fabulous work and thank you!

This is so relatable. Except I am no longer allowed to run tub water and leave the room.

If there is a story behind this, I think we all need to know it

I have twice started the tub water, left it to fill while I do "one more thing", found several more things to do, and flooded the house. I now have a self imposed rule that I cannot leave a room with water running (I also have a Laundry Room sink incident). I do wonder, though, if I wore a towel while doing the "thing" if it would serve as a reminder that the tub is running. May try it.
