On my walk, I left this prayer made from an antler-like branch, some humble stones & dust:
Where there's life, there's hope.
Where there's life, there's also suffering.
Let us do what we can to bring hope to the suffering.
~ Kambriel

One million meals a day is not a finish line. It’s a reflection of the extraordinary effort, resilience, and determination of local teams. It is also a reminder of how much more is possible when access, safety, and resources allow.
We keep going.

Our team in Gaza took a moment to pause and mark a milestone: serving 1 million meals a day. It’s a moment of recognition as our colleagues and partners are living this crisis, too. They are facing the same uncertainty, shortages, and daily realities as the people they serve. #ChefsForGaza (1/2)

Found a Filipino café tucked in a small Asian grocery shop & got my fix of purple ube.
Adorably? They sealed it w/a sticker of a smiling sun saying, "Hope this brightens your day!" & it kind of did :)
Just a friendly reminder to support independent places like this in your community as you can. 🌞💜

CINDERWICH is a jewel of an Appalachian Gothic complete with ghosts, intergenerational lesbians (just you know... living their lives, investigating mysteries), clootie wells & blackgum trees, witch sisters who are equal parts dubious & hospitable, + a goat for good measure. What's not to love?! ☠️🫖🐐
Also: !!! And yes, it’s rather gay. And cozy. But cozy horror wasn’t a category option, heh.

There is not a day where love doesn't help just a little. Where kindness won't matter. Kindness and love always matter.
I care to my marrow, and I love when people let me. I love when people respond in kind. Share in kind. Show in kind.
Things are ghastly. Love out loud. Share the good stuff.
