I've finished my first piece of embroidery! I had the opportunity to learn the basics of tatreez, (Palestinian embroidery) last weekend with Fatima Shaat. Fatima is not only a brilliant law student and writer but also a Gazan refugee, now studying abroad in the Netherlands.

The average SNAP benefit per month is $177 a person.

The average ACA benefit per month is up to $550 a person.

People want us to hold the line for a reason. This is not a matter of appealing to a base. It’s about people’s lives.

And working people want leaders whose word means something to them.

How about a cat that always looks like he’s smiling? 😸

Crinkle Fry can put a grin on your face with just one look — or honestly, just by hearing his name. Go ahead, say it out loud… Crinkle Fry.

See? You’re smiling already. 💚

My daughter is learning to crochet and she made a hat for our cat. The cat doesn’t seem impressed.

It’s Election Day with critical races in several states. This is the first general election where voters get to tell Donald Trump what they think of him so far. Don’t miss your chance to make your voice heard! Vote like your country depends on it. Because it does.

I looked it up, they seem to be called red egg crabs! Ironically enough, pancake crab is a different crab
