Loved this one. My father made me avocado toast when I was growing up. I always thought he invented it.

I am pretty sure the germ of this essay came from a long conversation with you.

This is a lovely essay. I join you in hoping coastal CA can retain its unique spirit. (Down with homogenization of everything, and up with regional differences!)

Down with the flattening of cultures! 👯‍♀️
