Good to see you back in the headlines, Ruth. Good luck and have fun here at Substack, where in your honor I've just resurrected our 2006 Q&A on 'The politics of food' for my 'Clips & Q&As' archive. https://clips.substack.com/p/ruth-reichl-cooks-her-food-at-substack

I'm the creator/lead admin of Fort Worth Foodies on Facebook (https://www.facebook.com/groups/fortworthfoodies)...65,600 members and growing. I was delighted to provide my members the link to your works and I share their eager anticipation of the brilliant content you always provide. We are of the same generation and your glimpses of the past take me right back there as if I was in a pneumatic tube. They are remembrances that deserve to be so eloquently preserved. Thank you for doing just that.

"I had no training — as a writer, a cook, or a recipe developer." Beautiful. You followed your passion and brought it to life.

Also - the archives! What a thrill, thank you for sharing them with us. The joy of hunting through someone's attic, minus the dust.
