Good Friday morning to you! I hope that you had a good week. Mine was pretty uneventful except for the bird incident. Wednesday night a bird flew in when I opened the door. An hour and a half later, after chasing the bird and my two helps pups chasing me the bird was waiting in the attic for the critter guy.

Have you ever watched a movie or a TV show and days later you are still thinking about it? I recently watched the fabulous Jewish Film Showcase movie Ahead of Time: The Extraordinary Journey of Ruth Gruber on PBS and I cannot stop thinking about what an extraordinary woman Ruth Gruber was. The youngest woman in the world to earn a PhD, which she earned at 19, she wrote her thesis on Virginia Wolf, she explored the arctic, and Alaska and she served 7 decades as a foreign correspondent and a photo journalist and this is just a small list of a few of her accomplishments. If you would like to learn more about the movie click HERE.
That is it for this week! If you have something to share, a movie, book, podcast, recipe or whatever we would love to hear about it.
Have a safe and fabulous weekend.
