It’s the weekend!

Tulips in My Work Cubicle, It's the weekend! Number 47

The weather might improve a little this weekend, which will be cause for celebration. We Northerners have had a cold spring. I hope to spend part of my weekend outside.

I hope that you have a great weekend!

  • Students continue to push for gun control, as demonstrated by today’s school walkout.
  • Earth Day 2018 (this Sunday) is all about ending plastic pollution. Check this site for more information about how to make a difference.
  • Buy a pair of sunglasses from Norton Point, a Martha’s Vineyard company, and the company removes a pound of plastic from the ocean. The sunglasses are made from recovered high-density-polyethylene (HDPE) ocean plastics. The company also gives 5% of net profits to global clean-up, education, and remediation practices.
  • Paris in Stride: An Insider’s Walking Guide, looks like a great book to bring along for a trip to Paris. It’s full of charming watercolor illustrations of the sites you will see on the guide’s curated day-long walking tours. 
  • Haikulike 13-word love stories. This one made me laugh, “45 years bliss. Then 13-word challenge. Now can’t agree. Love doomed. Thanks.”
  • Now that I’m packing my lunch every day, I need ways to change things up. I like all four of these quick lunch ideas. I’m sure some of the ingredients can be cooked in advance (buckwheat pancakes and roasted cauliflower).
  • This Striped Snap-Neck Sweatshirt is calling to me.
  • Ready for a drink to kickoff the weekend? Try a Bourbon Manhattan.
  • Remembering Prince:
  • Goodness: Batik Boutique produces batik clothing, gifts, scarves and pouches. Its goal is to provide a fair and sustainable income for women living in poor, urban conditions in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia. So far they have trained 29 seamstresses and 10 of them are now earning a sustainable income. One step at a time.

About the photo: These flowers placed in my cubicle added so much joy to my first days at work. Thanks so much to my flower fairy.
