Thank you to Alison for hiring this base intern – I pledge my loyalty to you! (Not “to thee,” because now I know better)

Anne Sablichlives in Northern MA with her husband and an assortment of cats and chickens, and likes to pretend that she’s a farmer despite living within a fifteen minute drive of at least five Market Baskets.
