I want to conclude our week with a shout-out to the Jon Swift Memorial Round-Up, hosted by our colleague Batocchio at Vagabond Scholar. The Swift round-up is where the bloggers themselves choose their best or favorite post of the year. As Auntie Mame famously said, "Life is a banquet!" Thank you for letting me be a part of your week. I look forward to sharing links with you again, soon.
