Find the Good Fridays #4

Here's some of the best stuff I discovered this week, guaranteed to make your life a little cooler, brighter and better.

Hello Friends! Did you miss this weekly post? I’m doubling up on the good stuff to make up for the absence!

As we head into March (what?!), I’d wanted to remind you about the Nonfiction Book Party online book club. Since March is Women’s History Month, The theme is “Women’s Issues” - you pick any nonfiction book that fits the theme and we discuss it online on the last Friday or Saturday of the month.
