On our latest weekly roundup, what happened in Vegas didn't stay there, as Catherine reported on her recent trip. Mentioned:
Omega Mart.
What we're watching: We continued with season 2 of
Reservation Dogs with episodes 5 and 6: "Wide Net" and "Decolonativization." We learned a little more about the aunties as they headed to an out-of-town conference, and an earnest pair of workshop presenters tried to help the teens learn more about themselves (without much success).
Catherine's library find this week,
Slug in Love by Rachel Bright with illustrations by Nadia Shireen, prompted mention of other slug and pug books (
Slug Needs a Hug, Doug the Pug, Pig the Pug) as well as reminiscences about some other faves, like
Room on the Broom and
The Gruffalo, both written by Julia Donaldson and illustrated by Axel Scheffler.
In the archives, we revisit episodes in which we discussed
neverending household tasks (March 10, 2021);
launching a young adult (March 7, 2019); and
Girl Scout cookies (March 8, 2018).
A correction: Last week, Catherine said she had learned of a Red Hot Chili Peppers concert scheduled for the afternoon. Turns out, the band in question was the
Red Hot Chilli PIPERS, which makes a lot more sense (and frankly sounds a lot more fun).
Next week, we'll watch the next two episodes of
Reservation Dogs, season 2: E7 “Stay Gold Cheesy Boy" (which has been inducted into the
Extra Hot Great Canon) and E8 “This Is Where the Plot Thickens.” Until then (and anytime you're in need), the
archives are available.
