I feel as though I&#8217;ve been doing fairly well reflecting on all the things I love every week. I might not always post something, but it&#8217;s always on my mind.<\/p>\n<p>I did something last night that filled me with joy. I&#8217;m not going to say what it is, but it did involve random acts of semi-anonymous kindness. Sometimes when I&#8217;m feeling upset I want nothing more than to do something for someone else. The reasons are of course at least partially selfish though, because it feels so good to know that someone is slightly better\/happier\/etc because of something I did. Just a little thing, but it makes my life fuller to help.<\/p>\n<p>Last week I took a brief trip to London, Ontario, and I loved grabbing lunch with a PPK pal\u00a0<a href=\"http:\/\/nakedveganlunch.com\/\" target=\"_blank\">Ms. Naked Vegan Lunch<\/a>,\u00a0at Veg Out,\u00a0and having fantastic conversation. I loved stumbling upon an AMAZING mural in downtown London. This is totally one of my favourite things from last week.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/prairiev\/12023450136\/player\/a8eed782b6\" height=\"375\" width=\"500\" allowfullscreen=\"\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>It&#8217;s the Stephen Watson Memorial Mural. So colourful! So beautiful. And the most amazing thing is that I didn&#8217;t know it was there before I got there, and I wasn&#8217;t looking for it. I just started walking.around the city after my lovely lunch, and there it was. I was attracted by the colours and I had to take a closer look. The details were great.<\/p>\n<p><a title=\"Stephen Watson Memorial Mural by MeShellG, on Flickr\" href=\"http:\/\/www.flickr.com\/photos\/prairiev\/12022973514\/\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" alt=\"Stephen Watson Memorial Mural\" src=\"http:\/\/farm4.staticflickr.com\/3732\/12022973514_1623be3d83.jpg\" width=\"500\" height=\"375\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h3>Other things I loved this week:<\/h3>\n<ul>\n<li>Baking cookies<\/li>\n<li>Finishing difficult, but satisfying projects.<\/li>\n<li>Eating donuts from Through Being Cool:<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" src=\"\/\/instagram.com\/p\/jfEnD4TUBf\/embed\/\" height=\"710\" width=\"612\" frameborder=\"0\" scrolling=\"no\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>This is the earl grey glazed.
