Stories of Kindness from Around the World

Baking Is Back!


--by cabbage, posted Aug 20, 2022
Baked up a storm of choc chip oatmeal cookies and freshly picked plum tarts to give away to a lot of people--someone whose kids have Covid, someone whose daughter just had surgery, someone whose father in law just got back from the hospital, someone with visiting in-laws, and a few neighbors. 
Taking some to my friend's mom in memory care center too. 

Most satisfying thing for today was being able to find short-term housing for a friend of a friend of a friend (!) who will be at the university here for a few months.



I had connected her with various lists/groups, but in the end I found that a friend of mine who rents a room out would be able to host her! Hurray!

Reached out to two former students and offering support that's needed. Offered to help a friend's daughter with her summer online biology course. Publicly congratulated someone on a zoom meeting for her successful talk earlier today. Offered gratitude in the same zoom meeting for the organizers.Sent photos of nature from a beautiful hike to friends/family.

Feel so happy to bake for people :-) dropping off surprise treats makes me smile!!
