Happy Birthday, Hil!
I took a 4 hour nap today, and as a result am too groggy to drive to Memphis and try the new-ish Russian restaurant. But maybe it's for the best. I want to dress up a bit for it, and it's still too warm to wear a long sleeve shirt for a 3 hour round trp drive in addition to dinner. Oh well, maybe next weekend.

Happy birthday, Hil!
Happy hat day, Perkins!
We took the kids to the theater today, then bopped about Westwood for a while. Very successful family outing! PLUS I finished my grading for the weekend! I'm so happy I'm going to celebrate with too many exclamation points, and some wine.

We just got back from this cool fundraiser at a church. All year people throw and glaze bowls. Then they get people and restaurants to donate soup. Then they have an empty bowl event, where people come and pay $15 and buy a bowl and get soup in it. Then the money they raise goes to 4 different organizations that are working at hunger abatement.
Website about the event: [link] They'll serve 500+ people tonight which is $75,000. Rather amazing.
We got two beautiful bowls and had dinner with the art teacher at my school. Very fun.

Empty bowls sounds like a great event, Kat.

It was really nice. I dunno if this link will work, but here's a photo of all the bowls washed and ready to go: [link]
