The pudding chomeur (the best!) our friends brought over for dessert last night.
Our bumper crop of mint and anise hyssop. So much tea to look forward to this winter!
Glorious late summer/early fall weather.

Taking Kid2 to the local public pool.
Reading on the porch (for the last time this year?) in the few minutes of sun we had this morning.
Live radio, still my favorite way of discovering musicians I haven't heard before (today's take-away is the Mary Wallopers).
@brian_gettler@mas.to#3GoodThings
The incredible number of butterflies in the garden over the last few days.
Hanging out in the sun while watching the kids pull off new tricks at the skatepark.
Kid2's peanut butter chip cookies.
@brian_gettler@mas.to#3GoodThings
Chili and cornbread.
Working out with Kid1 at the local public gym (it's small, but it's ours!).
Editing an absolute gem of an article - interesting, well written, and, for bonus points, it cites Althusser all at the same time.

Stocking up on refrigerator pickles made from the cut-price, soon-to-be rotten supermarket cucumbers.
Swimming and working out with the kids at the local public pool and gym.
Kid1 spontaneously baking a few dozen cookies (nothing like this has ever happened before!).

1. It looks like we've found a nice care home for Mum, within walking distance of the house.
2. All the walking to and fro the cottage hospital is doing wonders for Dad, body and mind, and he's generally handling the whole situation amazingly and in line with my approach, which is a huge relief.
3. Two of my most interesting relatives are coming down in β¦

Celebrating labour (today was the workers' holiday in North America).
Swimming (or rather dunking myself ever so briefly) in a very cold (oh so cold) Lake Ontario along with Kid2 on the last day of summer vacation.
Watching the Women's Rugby World Cup with the family (Go Canada Go! Allez les Bleues!).
@callunavulgaris@mastodon.scot#3goodthings And it's only 10 o'clock!
1. My daughter reached France safely in the early hours of the morning, via Switzerland and Germany and train, plane and bus πβοΈπ
2. What a beautiful sunny day π

@brian_gettler@mas.toThe older gentleman singing an achingly beautiful tune in the subway station tonight.
Drinks with colleagues who are also friends.
Wandering around the city with Kid2.
