Sara turned a calendar into postcards and so I got this lovely view of the Smithsonian. And now that I look closely at the picture, I can see the top of the month and year at the bottom of the postcard.
Aside from a fun stamp with flan on it, she also shared some of the less-motivating stickers that she’s not sending her students. My favorite one says “good effort.”
Also, any mention of “flan” reminds me of the birthday flan in the television series Friends.
While this may have been in a postcard package meant for Sara’s students, there’s no way I wasn’t going to receive it. The reason? Our high school mascot was the lion.
And while the tiger is affirming that it isn’t a lion, Sara spent the back of the postcard affirming that Lions are king. Because that’s what the cheer taught us 20+ years ago.
Another in the series of postcards that Sara is sending to her students. But unlike them, I got a bunch of “Super Spelling” stickers because she can’t use them with her students. They’re on the back.
She thinks my spelling is super. I know that my spelling is super due to my knowing how to properly use spell check.
Sara took a little break from her workday to send me this punny postcard. As a fan of puns, this was a delight to receive.
Sara sent this postcard to commemorate the next phase in my life. She’s been sending postcards to all her students and I’m glad I’m in the mix even though I’m not a student.
Sara sent me this postcard to mark that she has almost finished watching the series Lovesick (the one with Johnny Flynn, Antonia Thomas, and Daniel Ings).
Like me, she found the series a good distraction from ALL THE THINGS!
Sara was taken (as was I) by the fact that is is both a postcard AND a bookmark.
Granted a postcard could be used as a bookmark at any point if the book is bigger than the postcard, but this has a detachable postcard built right in!
I think more postcards should make this evolutionary link.
Sara sends me March greetings with a postcard of a place I’ve visited, at least on the outside. I’ve got my fingers crossed for Sara to visit the inside and report back!
I love these old fashioned map postcards. It would be fun to walk around Eureka and see how many of these buildings are still standing.
Sara reports that Shawn visited an actual coffee farm when he went to Costa Rica. This postcard comes with their coffee club shipment.
This byway cuts across Northern California. In these series of postcards, Sara reports that it’s been a busy weekend.
She expresses a desire for an additional weekend day, which is a feeling I am familiar with.
I’m not sure if all four of these postcards arrived on the same day. My guess is that they didn’t but that they did arrive in quick succession.
1/2 and 2/2 arrived on the same day!
This first postcard comes from, you guessed it, the town of Ferndale, the Victorian City, where Sara and Shawn spent the day with Shawn’s parents. They enjoyed strolling in the quaint downtown.
Apparently also Ferndale is the home of Guy Fieri, American restaurateur, author, and an Emmy Award winning television presenter. He went to high school in the town and had his first restaurant job here.
We missed out on Ferdale, opting instead for the county fair. But I look forward to catching up with her charms.
