Look at me forgetting again! But it was for good reasons, not bad ones!

1. More virtual dance parties! I think this is going to become a weekly thing, and it's fun to connect with people and deliberately try to shake off some of the malaise.
2. FaceTime chats with my cousin. <3
3. More playing in my own fandom sandbox, and friends who indulge my rabbit holes. :)

Quarantea-n, Week 2

We made it virtual this week! Tea with five people here and seven others virtually present on Zoom! a little more chaotic, but very fun and sweet and an excuse for everyone to wear cute clothes even though we’re not leaving the house!




This week’s Special Baked Good was jam thumpbrint cookies (buttery and melty and so so good).

We had more cucumber sandwiches, and then my mom also contributed a very very delicious salad with kale and craisins and all sorts of grains:

Complete with flowers picked from the yard!

This continues to be a lovely way to lift the spirits amidst - well, everything.
