What are you doing this weekend? To be honest, I’m sad because Freddie and I made a difficult decision. (Big Salad gift link). So, I’m going to visit my cousin and his wife in Pittsburgh, where they promised to make roast chicken and roast potatoes. Your children are very adorable and will be stimulating too! I hope you have a good one, be careful, and here are some links from around the web…

Kathleen says of Minneapolis: “As an American in a different state, I am grateful for the bravery of the people of Minnesota, the way they care for each other and stand up to tyranny. Their refusal to shrink, to give up on their neighbors, gives me hope. Thank you, Minnesota. We stand with you and are grateful for your example.”
Caitlin says about the last meal you ate before giving birth: “The last thing I ate before going to bed the night my contractions started (on my due date!) was a piece of cookie cake I had made. The cake was covered with the letters GTFO. It worked.”
