An Essay You Should Read

If you follow me here on Medium, you should check out this essay from my wife Amy Fischer Smith, who is new to the platform.

I Listen to Everything My Mom Tells Me Now that She’s Dead

It’s about the experience of suddenly losing her mom at age 60, and how she reconnected with Wendy through food even once she was gone. I’m no good at writing personal essays, but Amy is wonderful at it. If you’ve dealt with death or loss yourself — or you’d just like to try Wendy’s recipe for an amazing potato casserole — you should read this, and follow Amy.
