Lindsay Preston Zappas: One thing you wanted to talk about was how nature has been really soothing, and [about] finding a space for nature.
Alison Saar: I am really fortunate鈥擨 was raised in Laurel Canyon, and [when] we moved back from New York, we found a place in Laurel Canyon. Not only am I a mile away from my mom, which is really great, but we鈥檙e in this oak canopy, and there鈥檚 flora and fauna and lots of birds and wildlife, so it鈥檚 really lovely. It doesn鈥檛 feel we鈥檙e being shut in so much because we have this beautiful yard to be in.
