Issue No. 1679: July 16, 2025

Good morning,


This week, it’s all about comfort. I've got a roundup of American burgers you'll love - from New Mexico’s green chile burger to a Southern pimento classic and Minnesota’s Juicy Lucy. This is comfort food at its best. I’m also sharing a few favorite European wines and a grilled chicken recipe with a quick cherry tomato sauce that’s full of flavor.


We’re also pausing for something more personal. In this week’s podcast, I sat down with New York Times bestselling author and pastor Max Lucado to talk about the heartbreaking floods in Kerr County, Texas. He shares wisdom, comfort, and perspective on grief, faith, and how to move forward when life feels unbearably heavy. Whether you're looking for hope, healing, or just a reminder that you're not alone, this is a conversation worth hearing. Tune in right here.


All love,


Tanji
