    @miss.sally Nutella is, like, the only chocolate I can handle right now? So nowww I might have to go slice up an apple and dip slices in some nutella and peanut butter... 

    @stacey6689 Which Halloween movies are your faves? 

    1) It was only in the 60s/70s on my drive to work/walk to my building earlier this morning. HALLLELUJAH. 
    2) My students who care about the work they are doing/what we are learning and make it apparent by coming to me with questions/turning in good work/laughing at my dumb jokes when I'm lecturing
    3) That The Voice is back on! (I only watch until America starts voting, then I get mad and stop watching, but I love the first 2/3 of each season)
    4) DH for being so understanding lately that I feel like trash 75% of the time I am awake.
    5) my Philadelphia Eagles
    6) Talenti Roman Raspberry Sorbet 
    7) That I'm feeling better today than yesterday, though I know that likely won't last.
    8) The free music festival coming up this weekend, right next to campus
    9) The book I am reading and enjoying: an advance reader's copy of The Dolphin Letters, which contains letters between Robert Lowell, Elizabeth Hardwick, & others in their literary circle
    10) That I have an appointment and get to have a u/s this Friday morning!

    ETA to add tags!

    4. Tomorrow is my big 3-0...which I'm not entirely sure I'm excited for but I do love birthdays

    6. Football season

    @mommyxthree2020 did you get the Polar Express tickets for the narrow gauge railroad in Portland? We just did too but are actually going weekend before thanksgiving bc everything else was sold out for first class. Hope it’s good, we haven’t been before!

    @stacey6689 oh I forgot about Halloween movies on free form! I’ll have to check some out!

    @“miss.sally” I love my doppler too!

    @kagesstarshroom I need to be more thankful for good days rather than fretting about how it won’t last!

    1. These lists!  It really makes me feel happy reading all the simple and funny things that people are grateful for. Beautiful❤️

    3. Homemade chicken soup

    4. .... with sriracha. Everything with sriracha.

    5. The Kale Reuben recipe that @orbmaker mentioned last week.  Made it 3 times already!

    6. The library

    7. My fleece robe

    8. Finding baby gear on OfferUp 

    9. Our church’s small groups.. love our mama group and intentional family group

    @uno_mas yes to Sriracha! The best discovery I ever made was that Starbucks has individual sriracha packets!

    @varimama yes we booked Narrow Gauge! It's super cute - all the kiddos (and some grownups, myself included) go in their pajamas and get to sip hot coco. I want to try out the one in NH through the White Mountains, but this year the Polar Express and Disney on Ice lined up perfectly (we have PE on Sat night and Disney on Ice on Sunday morning) so we stayed local this year. You'll have to keep us posted on how you all like it!! :) 

    @uno_mas ughhh homemade chicken soup sounds so good right now. Also, I LIVE in my bathrobes. My kids think I am the laziest person in the world.

    @pdx2020 OFFICE NAP ROOM? Where do you work and how can I work there? LOL I've been taking a 15 minute "break" and passing out on a yoga mat on the floor in my office. What I would give for a nap room.

    @mommyxthree2020 awesome! It looks super cute and we’re going with his cousins too so hopefully that makes it lots of fun! I was looking at the white mountain ones too but we chose this one because it’s a shorter ride, I don’t think my 2.5 yo is ready to sit for 2 hours.

    @uno_mas love sriracha. Last pregnancy it was an aversion for me and I was so sad. This time I want it on all the things (as usual ha).

    @babyfox320 and @silverhope I’m glad I’m in good company with the sriracha love 😆

    @mommyxthree2020 definitely not the laziest person in the world but perhaps the coziest.  Have you ever seen The Big Lebowski?  You can be the mom version of “the dude” 👍.  (Halloween costume?!)
