Weekly Roundup: “The Apartment: A Century of Russian History,” Special K Pumpkin Spice Cereal, and Mortifying Our Children

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.

Catherine's library find caught her eye thanks to our recent watch of A Gentleman in Moscow. It's a children's book called The Apartment: A Century of Russian History by Alexandra Litvina, illustrated by Anna Desnitskaya and translated by Antonina W. Bouis. It covers six generations of a family and their life in the titular apartment.
​
Terri's random recommendation is a new way to get your morning dose of pumpkin spice: Special K Pumpkin Spice cereal. Happy fall, y'all!

In the archives, we discussed the ways we've been mortifying our children since 2019 (not to mention long before that).
​
Next week's lineup: 

• Lost S1 E11, "All the Best Cowboys Have Daddy Issues," on Tuesday, September 17
• Only Murders in the Building S4 E4, "The Stunt Man," on Wednesday, September 18
• Weekly roundup on Thursday, September 19

Until then (and anytime you're in need), the archives are available.
