Whether you're working, marching, reveling in Spring (Fall in the Southern Hemisphere) or recognizing your fellow workers, Booklady Cooks wishes you a glorious May Day.

From its roots in European pagan religions to celebrate the fertility of Spring, to its more recent recognition as International Workers Day, there are so many reasons to take a moment and appreciate the Spring day as well as the work that goes into all the goods and services we rely on every day.

So many of these resources are available to everyone regardless of their ability to pay - it makes the recent cuts to library and museum services heartbreaking. So much of our history and culture will be lost if we don't continue to support these resources.

Get things done. Sometimes, working at home has so many distractions so I take my laptop to the library and get so much done. Wifi is free and so are many of the online resources.

Checking out physical books - I still love the feel and smell of a book in my hand, but sometimes, I want a book RIGHT NOW or I'm traveling, so I check out ebooks and read them on my KOBO reader, my phone, or my computer.

I have this one, too! Found a little video of Monica on YouTube - in her later years.

🍞 Sometimes that something to look forward to can be as simple as toast, even if it is not served on a silver tray!

🍞Finding small joys in life is one of the things that give me the strength and focus to do the work that needs to be done.

🍞We all need "something to do, someone to love and something to look forward to" ~possibly Immanuel Kant(?)

🍞These two books aren't just about toast, but also how to make do with what comes your way and find happiness and bliss instead.

🍞Toast is one of those things that remind me that life is so much bigger than current events. That people have found reasons to get up and live life every day.
