It costs nothing for you to share this.

For every dollar you donate to your local food pantry you’ll be providing up to 10 meals to families in need this holiday season.

This!

I wrote this for @contrariannews.org after a discussion with a friend: how do we live our lives…amid all this chaos? And a recipe.
“We need to give ourselves permission to continue to enjoy life.” In whatever form that looks. For @lifesafeast.bsky.social, one way is baking autumn desserts.
Cocoa Molasses Chews
How do we live when it feels like everything is burning? We just do. And we be kind, and we bake.

Listening to a bunch of Beach Boys songs. My eyes are closed and I see my sister and other older girls dancing barefoot on our basement rec rooms of Long Island. Fake wood paneling, astronauts, that new show Star Trek and slot cars all flash through my mind.
