And I forgot this Public Service Announcement -- it is US Absentee Voter week. If you are a US citizen who lives abroad (like me) you can vote in the Federal elections, but you do need to fill out the paperwork.

From the email from the US embassy: "Voter registration deadlines vary by state. Some states require voters to be registered 30 days before an election. Check the Federal Voting Assistance Program website (www.FVAP.gov) to find more information on the deadline in your state. Whether you are a first-time voter or have voted absentee in previous elections, you should complete a Federal Post Card Application (FPCA) each year to ensure you are able to participate in elections as an overseas absentee voter.

Love the apple press. There is a resurgence here to return to making basic foods. I think it’s the combination of high prices and the low quality of most of our packaged goods. I’m learning how to can. My family did it for years but I never learned. Also making pasta, sourdough bread and yogurt.

Adorable photo of Paddy!

There is a rumor flying around X that in England they’re letting people out of jail before their sentences are complete in order to put people in who wrote things in Facebook. Is this accurate?
