This and That

Walking with Cake: Cart Blanche Thank you

(My lovely thank you gift from the Cart Blanche Kickstarter arrived this week.)

This week literally flew by and we are all set for the start of school next week! James will begin kindergarten and I still can’t fully wrap my head around that. We’re planning to relax and enjoy the last days of summer this weekend. Here are a few things that caught my attention this week.

A first look at the movie version of The Giver.  I used to teach the book to eighth-graders and I’m interested to see how the movie compares.

A horrifying story from Ireland.  Some journalists call this torture.

“This America is not my mother’s America.”

The San Antonio Police Department has found a better way to deal with mental health issues in the city.  Austin needs to follow their example.

Poor Governor Perry loses his concealed weapon.  All kidding aside, Perry’s indictment is a serious issue and should be a revelation for all Texans. If you live here, I urge you to read and understand as much as possible about this case, because it will shed light on his role as our governor.

Passion Lilie and Everlane released their new fall lines this week and they are both filled with pretty pieces.

Have a wonderful weekend!
