7. Grew a 4.5 pound butternut squash in the garden this summer. Prepping it to go in the slow cooker tomorrow to make my favorite Thai squash soup.

6. I roasted the last 8 tomatoes from my garden with two heads of garlic, onions and peppers, then blended them with some white wine to make a delicious pasta sauce for dinner. Added some Italian sausage and fresh mozzarella. *chef’s kiss*

5. My son picked out his first pair of glasses today (he is recently diagnosed as farsighted) and is SO excited about getting to wear them in a couple weeks. Meanwhile, my daughter wandered down the mall concourse to Gucci and tried on their sunglasses to the delight of the very kind saleswomen.

4. Our neighbor across the street recently lost her dog, a very old good pup who she lovingly walked twice a day. This morning we got to meet and pet her new pup, a 2.5 year old shelter dog named Rosie! Both seemed very happy to have found each other! Logan and I got puppy pets. Murphy has feelings.

3. Participated in one of the most adorable fund-raisers I've ever seen: our college compiled nominations for "cutest pet" from faculty, students and staff into a booklet. In order to vote for "cutest pet" you donate a can of food or submit a receipt for a donation to the Pittsburgh food bank.

Starting a thread of small joys that have made me smile this week. Hopefully they make you smile too.
1. I participated in a great event at school today, got to talk to some amazing students and got cookies and a new coffee mug as a thank you.

Took the kiddos down to the polling place to teach them about the importance of voting. Got my sticker!
Logan was only weeks old when we took him with us to vote in 2016. Hoping the promise I made him then, that he’d get to grow up in a country that had a woman president, will finally be true.

This is Bandit at 4 months - the sweater he is wearing here now fits him like a hat.
