With all the uncertainty and chaos in federal funding for research, I am so grateful for support from @bcrfcure.bsky.social. Loved the recent postcard campaign. 2025-6 BCRF funded 260 breast cancer researchers in 16 countries. Donations up to $60,000 through 10/31/25 matched 4X: go to BCRF.org

A clever homage to Little Shop of Horrors in the #Halloween pumpkin decorating contest at our local Trader Joe's...though it did give me some pause thinking about their meat selection....

Agree with @ariaa.bsky.social...Three can get a bit chaotic (we are outnumbered!), but our two cattle-dog mixes look a lot like the poster doggies and love to play!

Carmen's puzzle solution is much more clever, but Petunia also had a good solution to her "puzzle bowl" for lunchtime cauliflower....Sometimes you have to "think outside the bowl"!

For #BCAM, know the "rule of 40s": start mammography at age 40 for 40% reduction in risk of death due to #breastcancer and easier treatments. For the 40% of women with #densebreasts, 40% of cancers are missed on mammography and adding MRI helps; US if MRI not possible. @densebreastinfo.bsky.social
