Hi Emily! I'm a reporter at the Forward and I like reading the Cholent to keep up on Jewish news from the PNW. It helps with detecting trends around the country, and also seeing if something rises up to the level of national news. Really appreciate your work and hope you're having a good vacation

Hi Emily - I love reading your writings on the Puget Sound Jewish scene and how the big world issues impact us here. I also enjoy learning about parts of the community I’m not connect to, so anything about smaller groups in the area always grabs me. Thank you!

Emily pays attention to what matters. The Cholent keeps me in touch with one of the sharpest Jewish minds it was my pleasure to be challenged by in Seattle. Thanks for staying at it.

I am also on extended vacation but enjoy you’re input on the Seattle Jewish scene. Exploring family roots in Istanbul and surrounding cities of Sephardic heritage. Keep up the good work with the Cholent.

Hi Emily! I value the insightful depth The Cholent provides with regard to current and often complex topics that are oversimplified in the news and online. Your inclusion of humor and personal perspective is also greatly appreciated, :) Although I always learn something from your newsletter, I'm particularly interested in topics around endeavors against extremism and antisemitism. Thank you for all the work you put into The Cholent. ❤️
