A GREAT DINNER PARTY doesn’t have anything to do with well-appointed linens or shiny silver platters. It starts with a good guest list. You want people who have some touchstone in common but don’t necessarily know each other, people who will enjoy meeting each other. __ I LIKE TO LEAVE things to the last minute.

__ THERE WERE MANY aspects of quarantine I didn’t mind. The stillness was one of them. But the problem with that stillness is that it was accompanied by such anxiety.
__ I DIDN’T MISS going out. I didn’t miss a lot of the things the pandemic took away from me. I learned that I need very little, except for the people I love.
__ I WOULD LOVE to write more children’s books. I think children can understand complex things so long as you explain them in words they can wrap themselves around.
