At the dogwash with Jellybean. Thanks to watching Beavis and Butthead (30+ years ago!), I can’t stop muttering under my breath,“Washing the dog, Washing the dog…”

Got my ticket out to watch the Lilith Fair documentary! Also Sarah McLachlan is forever an inspiration 💕 #lilithfair

Excerpt from Sarah McLachlan’s speech before the documentary premiere: “If Lilith taught me anything, it taught me there is a great strength in coming together to lift each other up instead of tearing each other down. So I really hope this documentary inspires everyone to continue to try and create positive change in your communities, to keep lifting each other up, keep championing the causes you believe in with kindness and empathy because ultimately we're all in this together."

In Swedish, a word for what you eat to bridge the gap between meals (or while waiting for the main course to cook) is stödmacka. It means "support sandwich."

A similar word in Norwegian is ventepølse, or "waiting sausage."
