Dear readers,
We're back with another 5 Things for your Sunday! A few weeks ago, we did an experiment and sent a weekend newsletter because so many of you asked for one. We got a ton of responses, and now we're taking another swing, with some of your suggestions included. Please let us know what you think, and don't forget to take the short poll at the end of this email.
Thanks, from Your 5 Things family
