I just got home yesterday from a two week trip to Alaska, so my joys for these weeks are all about that.

💛 So much beautiful scenery!
💛 The experience of flying in small planes to & from the village and watching seaplanes land on the water
💛 Seeing wildlife, especially moose
💛 Hiking out onto a glacier
💛 Delicious food, including fresh fish

Another late post, but this has been a week full of joys worth sharing.

💛 Strawberry mule made with vodka I infused with fresh strawberries
💛 Church dinner with the homemade rolls I made
💛 Traveling to see my family with very well behaved pets
💛 The beginning of a trip to Alaska!
💛 Getting to fly to the village where my cousin has taught for several years

kspenmoll Strawberry mule-sounds good! Where are you going in Alaska? My brother lives on the Kenai Peninsula. (edited) 6d
Daisey @kspenmoll I missed this week‘s joy post, but next week will probably be all Alaska! We went to a village in southwestern Alaska near Bethel, then Anchorage, Seward, east to Wrangell–St. Elias National Park & Kennecott, then Valdez & a ferry back to Whittier to Anchorage again for our last few days.

Lesliereadsalot Yum! I think I noticed your name somewhere with the old #EuropaCollective which we‘re getting back together. Are you interested? 3w
Daisey @Lesliereadsalot Thanks for checking! I wasn‘t in the old Europa group, but @tpixie did ask me specifically about the June read. I would like to, but I can‘t fit in any more reading groups. 3w

Daisey @tpixie Not my own strawberries, but picked at my cousin‘s. I‘ve been having all kinds of strawberry things, including a strawberry matcha this morning and making strawberry pretzel salad for church tomorrow! 3w
tpixie OK, that does it. I‘m gonna come and move in with you. You‘re always cooking delicious things. Of course, I guess I could cook too…. 3w

Last weekend was so busy that I never had time to share, so I‘ve got two weeks of joy!
💛 Bored Teachers comedy show with friends/colleagues #TeachersOfLitsy
💛 End of the school year events and graduation for another class
💛 As commencement speaker, I was able to reminisce with the seniors about writing and reading projects as well as personal memories from our experiences together.
⬇️

Daisey 💛 A quick trip to my sister‘s for a family Mother‘s Day get together
💛 My classroom is organized and packed up for the summer, and I got to start a quiet weekday morning at home today!
💛 Bonus joy: More time with the pets this week after barely being home for a few days last week
