I have this memory from sometime in the late 2000s. Melanie, Sophie, and I were riding in a car in Charlotte, NC looking for a place to have some queso dip and Melanie was talking about wanting to write a book.

Just wanted to let y’all know about a little limited edition goodie that we are offering over here…. Maybe you have a daughter off at college and you want to send her a Valentine’s Day package, or maybe your teenager just loves getting mail [don’t we all?]. I remember vividly the fear and angst of going
