Good morning!  It’s been a while since I’ve done one of these and thought it was time to share some of the really cool (and frustrating) things I’ve found on the internet.  Enjoy!

• This essay by Doug Emhoff is beautiful.
• If you want to read every inaugural poem, here you go.  I was surprised to see that there were fewer than I thought.
• Here’s a list of 52 products that have appeared on Shark Tank.  I didn’t realize Bottle Bright appeared on the show, and it’s the only one of these products that I’ve heard of (and used) but I can attest that it is absolutely awesome.
• This week in frustrating book news: clashing over voting rights history.  I’m not surprised but also frustrated that we’re still dealing with this.
• On a happier note, one day I’d love to go to The Free Black Women’s Library.
• This is a pretty solid list of baking essentials.
• Baking, Part Two: More on cocoa powder.
• Elephants are amazing.
• As someone who procrastinates, I thought this article was helpful.
• Photo Corner: Ice In The Sahara Desert|Perfectly Timed Photos|Nature Dioramas|Fully Stocked Felt Pharmacy|Mixed Media Lace|Hot Dogs As Art
• The life of a cup of coffee.
• If you’re like me, and you’ve pre-ordered Amanda Gorman’s book, then you might like this list of poets to watch.
• Scrapbooking through mental illness.
• The pandemic is changing all of us.  Even though my routine hasn’t changed, I feel like I have more aches and pains than the before times.  Or maybe it’s just me getting older.
• Ovens are magical and have many uses besides cooking.
• State parks are cool.  Maybe, one day, when all of this is over, I’ll find myself in of these parks.
• Everyday objects as art!

That’s all for today!

Enjoy your day,
