Weekly Roundup: “All the Beauty in the World,” DWTS Season 33 Oscars Night, and Parenting Is Not a Panacea

Parenting Roundabout

Here's what we're reading, recommending, and revisiting this week.
Catherine's library find is another nonfiction, memoir-ish pick called All the Beauty in the World: The Metropolitan Museum of Art and Me by Patrick Bringley, which chronicles the author's ten-year stint as a guard at the museum. Mentioned: From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler, also set at the Met.
​
Terri's random recommendation is on hiatus for the moment as we return to the DWTS ballroom, where Dwight and Daniella pulled off a beautiful foxtrot and our fave Stephen showed he could do more than jive. The less said about the eliminated Anna the better. Mentioned: Champions, with Kaitlyn Olson, who we're seeing a lot during DWTS in ads for her new show, High Potential; and Terri's Substack, Too Old for Cool.
In the archives, we headed all the way back to 2017 to discuss our assertion that parenting is not a panacea.
​
