Mr. Mao says: Good morning and happy new year, and Mr. Mao says: Good morning and happy new year, and also, how do you intend to make 2021 different from 2020? Is a new president the solution? Will ending the pandemic be the difference we're looking for? Or will it take more than that, like maybe daily effort and reflection, clarity of intention, thoughtful communication, and the determination to keep taking steps every day... If we want 2021 to be better, *we* have to be better. So drink your coffee, pet your critters and get ready to bring the best you have to offer this year.
My current reading: Don't Label Me by @realirshadm My current reading: Don't Label Me by @realirshadmanji. I'm about halfway through it now and I recommend it because the author does a brilliant job of discussing a complex topic in an approachable and compassionate way. If you know me, you know I'm as liberal as the open sky itself, but I still run into barriers in my own mind (my lack of understanding, my own biases, etc.) as well as in the people around me. This book is all about bridging those gaps where we fail to understand one another in order to build truly diverse, inclusive, sustainable, and compassionate communities. A strong balance of storytelling, a loveable narrating voice, and good application of research make this book very digestible for people who want to put their values to work and are willing to question their own assumptions.

I've been up to little bit of kitchen witchery for I've been up to little bit of kitchen witchery for the day after solstice. There's something really satisfying to me about making a stock from scraps of meals past. It reminds me that when we savour our blessings and value the good things we have, we can invest ourselves in that goodness and multiply the blessings to share. Now that we've gotten through the longest night of this very hard year it's the perfect time to think about how to bring light, love, and joy back to the world. May you find the blessings in your life, and always have enough to share.
