FIELD REPORT DU HQ | From Wherever It May Be Said<\/strong><\/p>\n

It\u2019s time to face the New Year, dearest readers, so we\u2019re easing the transition by offering you something old (a long-intended Chef Ra<\/strong> tribute, drifting into view next week), something new (the BAKING UP LOVE<\/strong> article we ran on Tuesday), something borrowed (the scene-specific info on this and every Calendar<\/strong>, if we\u2019re to be honest about it), and something blue (our salute to the creative folks whom we\u2019ve lost in 2021, appearing last night). Read up, drink up, and shake the jitters out of your systems. I don\u2019t believe that 2022 will be a walk in the park, even if we skirt 2021 and 2020 standards by miles, but we have to give our best effort if we\u2019re going to shape it into something worthwhile. CUBlog<\/span><\/strong> will be rooting for you.<\/p>\n
