Happy Friday and welcome back to Snacks. This is the first official** fall edition, which I am excited about. I grew up taking family vacations to Estes Park, CO, a small mountain town in Rocky Mountain National Park. Very small. The anti-Hamptons, with a YMCA that was considered the “hotel” and a downtown with a saltwater taffy shop and three restaurants. I haven’t been back in nearly a decade, and my memory might be faulty, but I always remember how the air in Estes Park felt. Whenever my city

My food stylist for my first book told me she got married in September because it was the month she could get all the food she wanted. I get it. Eggplant and cucumbers and late summer tomatoes and brussels sprouts and (still!) all the herbs you could dream of and honeynut squash??? We are not worthy.

What am I, twelve??To be honest it’s probably because I spent the last week traipsing around LA and Disneyland with no hand sanitizer and for that, I deserve this. Let’s dive into the week in this beautiful newsletter where I promise I’m not contagious: <a class="image-link image2" href="https://substackcdn.com/image/fetch/$s_!Qx9j!,f_auto,q_auto:good,fl_

Hello and happy weekend! I’m just back from five days in LA, which were fully intended to be working days, but since this summer is summer-ing harder than ever before, they turned into laptop-open-by-the-pool days, which feels equally productive. It’s nice to be slowed down by forces in my environment, whether that means being out of town or just working from somewhere different. It’s a nice change for the end of August, I’m going to try to keep it. But now, into the newsletter:<a class="image-l
