Todo bueno

I have had nearly 2 weeks of vacation where I was lazy when I wanted to be and did most of the things I’d hoped to (and some I hadn’t planned on) and tried new things and discovered that I want to become more skilled at snorkeling and heard good music and ate good food. More of this, please.

If you can ⬇️

Not so long ago I cried every day for at least a month. I would apparently cry in my sleep as I’d wake up with salt on my cheeks. Sending wishes for peace for you.

I hope you find that person 🫶🏻

I guess I’m in good company then because … sighs …

My husband brought home some and I was pleasantly surprised. I usually like only the regular-degular ones, but I guess I learned something new.

Pas moi

Made banana bread this morning. Now I’m out to brunch! Lol

I’ve been waiting for this.

Please help or share if you can

Sooo thoughtful … 🙄

Evaporation to the point that I need to re-add water 3x. It makes for a deep flavor and a richness to it.

Usually I let it cook down 3x during the day before draining it and adding all the cut veggies and chicken back in. Add salt and pepper then.

Did this just yesterday. I typically pick a whole chicken (leftovers or a rotisserie chicken), remove all the skin, throw the carcass in a Dutch oven filled with water. I throw in some stalks of celery, a few whole carrots, half an uncut onion and let it simmer all day.

Someone I used to work with has a video posted saying that they are not a racist, a member of a cult, Nazi, etc.

Made me think a bit: never once in my life have I ever felt as if I needed to defend myself by posting such a testimonial. We’re so screwed.

Someone close to me got the flu and had to stay home for 4 days a couple weeks ago. Today they asked me to borrow $$ to buy food.

This is disgusting in the (checks notes) “greatest country in the world.”

Writers, authors, scholars, professors, teachers:

I need compelling persuasive/argumentative NONFICTION texts my students can read and study in ordered to better understand the genre. Preferably no more than 10 pages and about issues that are current.

The BEST. Just watch it. You won’t be sorry.

So good!

Please support by calling your legislators

When you focus on the regular people showing up magnificently in all of their flawed beauty, it helps you to keep going.

Hey home adults,

If there’s a teacher in your students’ life who is making a positive impact on their learning, please send them an email, class dojo message, Remind, etc

It’s REALLY hard to keep going right now and a little kindness can go a long way.

The one thing I should have expected (but maybe didn’t fully understand) is that once you’ve been diagnosed with cancer, there’s no such thing as a “routine” check up.

He loves the belly rubs. Has to be close and touching all the time. He also has been typing a bit and once scheduled a meeting for me lol

My tuxedo cat on my mousepad as I’m working.

Pretty much the same … this goofy lovebug has helped a lot!

My mouth instantly started watering. Why don’t I have this in my life?!

Sounds like we’re all following for the answers.

I’ve only heard great things.

Can we fire KP now?! #GoBirds 💚

LFG Birds 💚
