New post! Why do we normalize abuse in the workplace? If we wouldn’t allow it in our personal life then we shouldn’t allow it in our professional life.

This roasted red pepper & paprika hummus makes a great sandwich spread, or use it as a dip or toss it through pasta (just thin it with some pasta water).

Luna was on porch patrol this morning.
3 birds observed, 1 squirrel interrogated, and a suspicious leaf officially investigated. 🐾
She’s the security team, neighborhood watch, and local drama reporter—all in one. 😼
