As this is our Thankful issue, I had to take the opportunity to say how profoundly grateful I am to not only live in Westport, but serve as editor of Westport Lifestyle. I have always wanted to be a journalist, since back in the days when television and movie protagonists were glamorizing the field as one full of endless opportunities. When I graduated from college in the recession of 2008 and entered a media landscape of shriveling budgets and shuttering print publications, I let go of the dream of seeing my name atop a masthead one day. That I not only was able to see that dream realized, but to do so within this remarkable community, has given me plenty to be thankful for this holiday season. I am grateful for all your feedback, too, and hope you all will continue to reach out to share the as-yet-untold stories that proliferate here in town. May all of your Thanksgiving tables be bountiful and joyous!
