So, did you all have a terrific Thanksgiving? I certainly hope so! I myself can't complain. Despite all the trepidation about putting together a vegan Thanksgiving for the first time, I thought it went pretty well. My family gave me a 10 for the effort, and we all concurred that the result was a solid 9. So, it was very close to being declared smashingly successful, except for one or two side dishes losing a few points due to being veganized. Overall, it was satisfying to see everybody ... continue reading...

I work with a lovely bunch of teachers this year. That's not implying that I worked with unlovely teachers in the past, of course, but these teachers are particularly fabulous. They're young, motivated, fun, and yes, thoughtful. Which goes against conventional wisdom that young people are not all that thoughtful or considerate. So perhaps we should call it unconventional wisdom 😂 Anyway, to prove how truly thoughtful they are, I have a visual evidence of what they presented me for my birthday ... continue reading...
