1-year-old is randomly obsessed with this balti recipe book and it's the cutest thing ever. She just sits on the floor poring over pictures of baltis and saying things like "Is that... tomatoes?" 😭❤️

Respect Alice Wong’s call here:
“When I am in public spaces and see most people unmasked either because they think the virus is a hoax, that masking is virtue signaling & a sign of weakness, aren't thinking about it, or that they simply don’t care, I feel like an expendable burden not worth saving.”

My 1-year-old has developed a couple of excellent new games recently:
Don't Shut Mama in the Bathroom, where she pushes the door shut and I get a few mins to brush my teeth in peace,
&
Mama Sleeping, where I "have to" lie down on the bed and close my eyes.
It's the little wins 😄
