Tradition Looks Different in 2020
We have end-of-year traditions that we look forward to, yet this year, things are different. Time with friends and family may be subject to new ways of interacting. Activities could become virtual or be cancelled altogether. How do we adapt gracefully and move forward when we have to pivot — yet again?

Food, Glorious Food
The end of the year brings celebrations for many faiths and cultures. Key to these festivities is traditional foods. Tell us about your favorites—whether created from a recipe handed down through generations or culled last year from a food blog. No matter the role and significance of the dish, they all include one common ingredient—love.
