Gift Parcel from Across the Pond

Look at this lovely package that Helen sent me as a pick-me-up after the disastrous election results. Is this gal a peach or what?! She is beyond thoughtful.

New (to me) Albums From Amy

Earlier this month I stopped to see Amy and she and hubby, Don, gifted me some albums they received in their last bulk online order. The bonus was two Barry Manilow albums from her parents' old collection. Score!!

Fight the Patriarchy!

Came across these cute colouring pages I did in 2009. I think I bought it off About-Face, but I'm not 100% certain. I think if I re-do my place, I should frame some of them.

I Heart Mom's Best Cereals

I've always been a big fan of Cocoa Pebbles but discovering Mom's Best Cereals Crispy Cocoa Rice was like finding a cure for all my pains and worries. It's so good, especially with chocolate oat milk, and stays crunchy for way longer than the Pebs ever did. Wish I could have this every single morning of my life. It's 100% yum.

The Turkeys Are Coming!

Ha! The turkey's name-tag reads Ted. Adorable. I snapped this last year on my way in to a local-ish Trader Joe's. Man, I wish I knew how to draw...Ted is super handsome!!

BONUS! I walked in to TJ's tonight and they have this year's turkey announcement up and it's just as cute as last year's!
