Jeremy’s essay is a beautiful portrait of his grandfather’s life, and of the lasting legacy of the quiet lives in our own families, and I encourage anyone with 10 minutes to give it a read.

Thanks to Bitter Southerner for letting me write about the quiet life of Dennis “Baby Ray” Harrell. And thanks to @rz_priest for making the essay better.

Just dropped and shattered my entire crockpot lid all over my kitchen. Countertops, stovetop, and floors! Who knew there was so much glass in the lid?? #InternationalWomansDay.

Our story of the week is also the cover story from Issue No. 4! @Hannah_Hayes brings us into the home of Kevin Morby and Katie Crutchfield, where they open up about settling down in the middle of the country, falling in love, and making music. It's a good one.

One of my neighbors' middle school or high school kids is apparently learning how to play the saxophone and, as a former saxophonist, hearing every out-of-tune note and the same six bars of a song is honestly so lovely.

Emerging from my unintentional months-long twitter hiatus to say that Issue No. 4 is here!! I'm so proud of all the folks who made this issue — and all those that came before it — possible. I still get giddy holding each issue stunning magazine in my hands.
