88003DB258We have some delightful tidbits for the care and feeding of your brains, spirits, sense of humour and appreciation this week!

Let’s start off with four women who witnessed the translation process of the Book of Mormon, and their experiences.  If seeing is believing, this program of bringing museums to kids is not only brilliant, but has been going on for decades.

For some number crunching fun, guess how many meals the MTC missionaries prepared Thanksgiving afternoon? (The amount is incredible!) Next we have a list of people who have run 100 marathons in a year – including Bettie Wailes who at the age of 70 completed her 102nd marathon last year.

For thinking fodder, how about the request to think before asking why people don’t have kids yet?  There’s also been the suggestion that we’re leaving the age of anxiety for the age of cynicism that is spreading negativity and doubt, particularly among younger generations. Then again, it’s perspective that counts – and these seven artists share what they’ve learned from their creative experiences.

If you have siblings, chances are you have different relationships with them. To that end, may I present not only the findings that having adult siblings may be part of why you have a long and happy life, but also the perfect gift guide for the any relationship where payback and weirdness happens.

Finally, while not taking it for granted, my favourite treasure this week which I’ll be using for family night, reminders and giggles. Have a great week!
