Almond extract is disgusting and I will not be taking any questions at this time.

From the early 2000s documentary, Standing in the Shadows of Motown, about the musicians, known as the Funk Brothers, who backed Motown's most famous artists. Most of them are gone now, but this memorializes their astounding talent. And Joan Osborne absolutely kills it. 💙🎶

One of my favorite books as a kid. If only I'd known! 😫😂🐭
Front cover of a children's book titled Mousekins Golden House. It shows a jack-o-lantern with a little mouse poking its head out of the right eye.

Me, yesterday: Why are we suddenly getting all these mice in the house?

Me, just now: 🤦‍♀️
A small pumpkin sits on a granite stone step. A section of the top has been nibbled away by mice.

A safe, equal world for children starts with due process. On #WorldChildrensDay, we’re reminded that thousands of kids still forced to navigate immigration court without an attorney by their side.

We asked children why they migrated to the U.S., here's what they had to say ⬇️

Can’t believe the whole country has to suffer through the return of Dickensian childhood diseases because the worst, most ignorant attention-demanders decided other people’s expertise makes them feel bad

I grew up on this. Kind of an acquired taste, but this recipe looks like a good upgrade.

This old new England dessert originally inspired by Native Americans back in Colonial days is always on my Thanksgiving dessert menu!

I hate to be the one to tell you this but the past tense of "drag" is not "drug." Come on, now.

Folks are posting some absolutely gorgeous aurora photos this evening! Mine definitely isn't one of them, but my aurora app only gave me a 4% chance of seeing them at all, so I'll take it! 🩷💚✨

‘The candlelight flickered faintly, casting long shadows on the walls as if trying to escape the weight of the night.’ ~ F. Scott Fitzgerald, The Great Gatsby.
🖼️ Pieter Claesz
Still Life with Lighted Candle (also known as Quiet life with a burning candle) by the Dutch Baroque artist Pieter Claesz, dated 1627. The precisely arranged still life depicts a quiet, dimly lit scene on a wooden table, focusing on scholarly pursuits or reflection. A large, green glass filled with liquid sits prominently in the center-right. Pieter Claesz was known for his convincing depiction of different materials, including the wine in the drinking glass and the reflection of candlelight. An open book with a pair of spectacles resting on top is in the foreground, next to the glass. Another closed book is stacked behind the open one. On the left, a lit candle in a brass candlestick provides the main light source. An ornate pair of wick trimmers (scissors) and a small box (likely a snuffer or tinderbox) are positioned in the foreground.

On a raw and misty November day, there's nothing like a hot cup of Scottish Breakfast, the spicy-sweet scent of a gingerbread candle, and some mellow Coleman Hawkins on the music stream. A tiny fall oasis in the madness. 🍂🫖

I recently read that Virginia Woolf once characterized T.S. Eliot's fraught relationship with his mentally disturbed wife as wearing a bag of ferrets around his neck and that's exactly what living in America feels like right now.
