We're heading back to France in just over a week. Yes, we're going right back into lockdown, just like last time. Yes, France's covid rates are exploding, just like last time. And just like last time, I expect France to quickly get things under control while the US just turns into a big mess. Or a messier mess.
I was teaching workshops in Pennsylvania when Zari turned 14 (on Halloween!). We had a party when I got back. Just a very informal gathering of our neighbors 2 doors down and one of Zari's school friends. We had summer-like weather, very rare for November, and enjoyed a bonfire, Smores, and birthday cake.
Oh, the cake was fun. In Zari's words, "Desperate times call for desperate cakes." So we made a covid cake. We = moi with some help from Zari! Zari designed a crown for the cake because, as she said, "It needs a crown because it's the coronavirus? Get it?"
