five little things that made my week.
1. these chocolate chip cookies.
{and feeling well enough to eat them.}
2. these clean sheets.
{sometimes you just really need a mid-week sheet change.}
3. this ginger.

4. these dahlias.
{for bringing a tiny bit of good cheer.}
5. these socks.
{three colors. one size. one already gone missing, but i’m holding out hope.}

All great takes on a truly infuriating situation. Thanks for sharing, Erin. I just placed my order for an “Honor” print!
I just signed up to volunteer. Thank you for these links.
I’m so glad you are feeling better — not an easy feat after a week that has left most of us totally heartsick. Here’s a small gift to round out your cookie department — buckwheat chocolate chip cookies from David Lebovitz. Given the coco nibs involved, I’d say that they may be considered “adult” cookies, but you can decide: https://www.davidlebovitz.com/buckwheat-chocolate-chip-cookies-cookie-recipe-lappart-david-lebovitz/
Thank you, thank you, thank you for including trigger warnings.
Clean sheet never fails!

Haha! So many laundry posts! Here are a few:

Glad you are feeling better. The news cycle has been shaking. Lots of self care this week.
