Hello computer friends, I've set up a meal train for my grandpa, who is going into hospice care, along with my mama, his caregiver. If you’d like to contribute, providing a meal is a simple but deeply appreciated way to support our family during this time. 🙏 www.mealtrain.com/trains/oeom0l

Meal Train for Raymond Jay

Note about dropoff: If Martinez is too far, I can come pick up meals. I'm in Oakland. My grandpa is going into hospice care. Our family is coming together to support him as he settles into my mom’s...

I didn't know Clarice Lispector wrote children's stories! Love that they're "less linear, more unusual" than traditional children’s lit because of course they are. AND about the intimate lives of animals? 🖤 www.publishersweekly.com/pw/by-topic/...
