Chuck Tingle!

We went to go see Chuck Tingle talk, and he was amazing. Goofy and fun, but also heartfelt and sincere. He had fun with jokes but he also would share his frank beliefs about winning through love, and how humans essentially exist for and because of love and community.

And he gave the talk at the Internet Archive! Which was a fun place to visit in and of itself.

Gussied Up Strawberry Shortcake

A friend was hosting a party and so I made a gussied up strawberry shortcake. I decided to use diplomat cream and ladyfingers.

Arranging strawberries. Can you see The Vision?

This may or may not have been inspired by the fact that I had leftover ladyfingers from when I made tiramisu earlier.

Tah-dah! The finished dessert ready to eat!
