We have a lot of cravings for the amazing food we ate on our Europe adventure last year.

Tonight we’ll be transported back to the tiny little bruschetta bar in Verona, courtesy of my wife’s sensational sourdough. Toppings of balsamic mushrooms with shaved parmesan, and homegrown tomatoes with basil. Noms-a-nom-nom!

I added a chicken squawk as one of the tail messages on my repeater, and it makes me smile every time I hear it.

Today’s #ThreeGoodThings:
- there are now just three more classes until mid-semester break! (don’t get me wrong, I know that teaching is part of my job and that’s ok but as an introvert I find it pretty exhausting)
- I found out that a potential PhD student got offered a scholarship on a funded project and I am so happy for them because it is a much better fit with their strengths
- I did all the puzzles succesfully today 😊
