I've been a "big sister" for 13 yrs. Big Brothers Big Sisters of Lincoln has been a meaningful activity for both my littles & me (that's my current one & me in the pic). Please remember this great organization on Give to Lincoln Day! #GiveToLincolnDay2025 #BigBrothersBigSisters #mentoring #LincolnNE

I'm so pleased that the librarians at Bennett Martin included me on this poster of Nebraska women. What a group it is! Willa Cather, Susan La Flesche PIcotte (the 1st Native American medical doctor), mayors, senators, actors, artists, scientists, aviators, reformers, and more! #NebraskaWomen

I just dashed off a thank you note to Biden. I could easily have gone on for 10 pages. His accomplishments were great! #GratitudeForBiden #joebiden #Biden'sAccomplishments #SavingAmerica #ThankYouJoeBiden

I'm pleased that the University of Missouri Press has reissued my 2016 book, Bread, this time as a more affordable paperback. Check out the current catalogue for more information -- or buy the hardback from me at half the price that Amazon is asking. #disorderedeating #eatingdisorders #memoir #aging
