We're going to take it easy until Monday (as should you), but we're pleased to open this holiday weekend with the first installment in a new running feature, The Cladrite Interview. And we're doubly pleased that the subject of our inaugural interview is the charming and talented Lesley M. M. Blume, author of Let's Bring Back: An Encyclopedia of Forgotten-Yet-Delightful, Chic, Useful, Curious, and Otherwise Commendable Things from Times Gone By, a delightful collection of words, practices, attitudes, and traditions from recent decades that Blume feels (and we generally agree) should never have been allowed to fall by the wayside or out of the mainstream.
