I sent out my email request for a recipe at 8:30 p.m. on a Wednesday night. Nat responded within the hour and was the first to submit a recipe. At this point, I have his granola recipe memorized because I used it as the template for all the other recipes. (Thank you, Nat!)
Tangentially, Nat deserves a story of his own. When I was the ripe young age of 20, I went on exchange to the University of Melbourne, in Australia. My flight had a layover in LA and, unfortunately, my connecting flight to Australia was cancelled, leaving me stranded in LA for a full 24 hours. Then came Nat to the rescue. He had the day off and he showed me around LA, took me to all his favorite spots. I was anxious about starting a new life abroad, and the day off that we had together gave me a moment to relax and feel ready for the next adventure I had waiting for me. We went to brunch, the flower market, a brewery, a park, and turned a day waiting at the airport into a really memorable day.
