First, I love your writing. Your Friday Farm Posts give me life. Second, thank you for your sharing your perspective and how you have grappled with what I wrote. I spoke a single white woman friend of mine who is the same age as my wife. And when I expressed sending food back, she says she does it all the time. If the reservation is at 5:00 she expects to be seated at 5:00. It was a lovely conversation.
We have HBO and after the election season I will put that show on as something my wife and I can watch together after our daughter goes to bed.
