We're just getting started! First email goes out when we reach 5 members! Want to be one of them?
Need the quick version? We got you:
Get a weekly email with music finds, food experiments, and genuine discoveries from people who love sharing good things. No rushing, no overwhelm—just thoughtful recommendations that arrive in your inbox every Wednesday (EST).
emellowblend is a weekly email community where people share what they genuinely love—music that hits just right, weird food combos that somehow work, hidden travel gems, random insights that stick with you.
We chose email because you already have it and actually check it. Instead of creating another app or platform, we use something simple that's already part of your routine. Plus, in a world of marketing-heavy newsletters, this might be something you actually look forward to reading.
Behind each email is a curator who handpicks content and features member contributions. The process uses AI to help with research and organization—we're transparent about that—but every choice about what gets featured comes from a real person who cares about building something genuine.
You'll stay anonymous with a fun username. Share your discoveries when you feel like it. Connect with people through stuff you actually care about. No algorithms deciding what you see, just a comfortable rhythm of weekly emails from people who appreciate the good stuff.
Here's what lands in your inbox each week. The idea is that even if you're not into everything, there's probably something here that'll catch your interest!
You'll notice our section titles look like code! It's a lighthearted nod to the AI tools that help us research and curate your weekly email.
Weekly emoji with gentle reflection—sometimes seasonal moments, sometimes random themes that spark thought.
Weekly music picks—songs with a theme or a mix of what we're loving. (YouTube Music links work for everyone—no subscription needed.)
Motivational quotes from famous people, both living and historical figures.
Food finds people are excited to share—weird combos that work, personal recipes, family secrets, and random discoveries fellow eMells want you to try.
Intriguing discoveries and curiosities that spark wonder.
Welcoming new eMells and a weekly icebreaker that presents a question designed to spark connection, plus a featured response from the previous week.
Travel discoveries from fellow eMells—the places that moved them, with stories and photos that capture why. (Photos will be formatted to fit the email.)
The thoughts that cross our minds—insights, funny moments, weird observations, random realizations, and anything else eMells feel like sharing.
Current and upcoming week's observances, holidays, and cultural moments to acknowledge.
Product recommendations from members with 2+ years of use—things that have proven their worth over time, covering everything from everyday essentials to unexpected favorites.
Member contributions are what make these emails special. However, replying is completely your choice - you can participate or just enjoy reading. When you get your weekly email, some sections will have prompts/questions you can reply to and potentially get featured in the next email.
Every Wednesday morning (EST), you get a new email with what members are into
Take your time reading. Discover what fellow members are enjoying.
Reply with your own discoveries by Tuesday to be featured in future emails.
We call our members 'eMells'—people who've discovered that email's slow pace is actually perfect. Being in the member directory is completely your choice, but it's handy for tracking your own answers and meeting fellow eMells who might share your exact weird interests!
We're still building our community, so we've created some example profiles to show you how the directory works.
The name 'emellowblend' (pronounced "ee-mellow-blend") comes from email + mellow + blend. Email's our medium, mellow's our vibe, and blend is how we mix everyone's discoveries together.
