Tidbits

We have a big national and local election in November, and my friend Suverna is running for our school board. I know she'll make an excellent board member if she's elected, so I've been helping her out a bit with her campaign.

We recently purchased a solar generator system, for backup power in the case of emergencies. I've been doing a lot of research on the many brands and types, and we settled on this kit, which came with everything we needed. It came charged up about 1/3 of the way to full, and with the panels, charged up in a few hours.

Last week, I had lunch with my friend Jenn at Chuy's, a Mexican place that's been around forever, but I hadn't been to since shortly after high school. 

It was so good, I took Stace back on Tuesday, for Taco Tuesday specials and the Dodgers playoff game.

Good thing we did - by the next week, the Dodgers were knocked out of the playoffs early, and Chuy's shut permanently! After being open for decades...

Stace was feeling creative, and knocked up this little wheelbarrow, similar to ones his dad has made.

We had a Sunday evening firepit, and roasted a few marshmallows. It was lovely.
 

I took the girls to the Filipino grocery store on Sunday, to buy more dried boba for making drinks at home, along with more ramen. We then went to a new boba place in Canyon Country. Pricey but tasty!
