Powered_By_Plants Congratulations on finishing your training and Thank you for the tag 💜 definitely grateful fir family dinners every night sitting down together and chatting about our days 🥰 4y
Cosmos_Moon_River @Powered_By_Plants for sure! I make our family dinners a priority. No TV at dinner and we have to sit down together. We‘re all at work and school all day and need that time to decompress as a family, together. Unfortunately my kids are at the age of arguing with them to eat everything, unless it‘s Mac n cheese or pizza, so not always relaxing, but we‘re getting there 🥰 4y
Powered_By_Plants @Cosmos_Moon oh I feel your pain!! My oldest isn‘t too bad my little one does like to put up a fight. I‘m not into cooking everyone a separate dinner so it‘s that or nothing , but it‘s so true about introducing them to a certain food many times before they eat it. after about the 10th time she will now eat a bean chilli with no fuss 😅 x 4y

1. No going to the usual Halloween parties, and altered trick or treating with the kids.
1. An old friend from grad school moved back to town and will see her this weekend.

Very good book of short stories by Achebe. I especially enjoyed the title story and the starred stories.

Daisey So, when I saw the first of these that you created, I thought I had my challenge book chosen. Now I'm wondering if there will be a few in next year's reading list. Thanks so much for sharing! 8y
Marchpane @Daisey so happy that you found a few to interest you! I'm adding a ton to my own TBR... 8y
