Scruffy hospitality

I like this essay about “scruffy hospitality” and embracing your home, with its imperfections, realities, and all. My favorite people are the ones who don’t mind I have dishes in the sink, toddler underwear in the living room, and dust bunnies in the corners.

(And thanks to my aunt Cathy for sharing this article with me!)
