    Vegan Pumpkin Curry with Quinoa. This was a special virtual “lunch and learn” put on by the AWS Munich Sustainability team! I felt a bit frazzled cooking, but it turned out so tasty! #bepeculiar @hereataws @ Munich, Germany

    I found a gift in the post – a gorgeously warm handknitted hat from @diepdin! ❤️ @ Munich, Germany https://t.co/wwJdeDzSh6

    Looked at the news and social media for the first time since morning, and you know what? I feel happy that I didn’t marinate in despair all day. I may try this tomorrow too…

    @gilmae I went for a jog. And read an actual BOOK. I’m as stunned as you are.

    @gilmae Not even! (Though I did just now read one where Crowley claimed responsibility for Starbucks coffee.)

    @randomknits I can’t decide whether knitting will be good for my anxiety, or whether I will be transferring my anxiety into the garment, and then I’ll feel that whenever I wear it.

    @bodil Jesus I’m drooling…

    Realised I was sick of my personal site design on the weekend so revamped using a lovely responsive template from https://t.co/Ft7prUOVq0 (because my CSS skills stopped developing ‘round about 2003…) https://t.co/RSu5Optc1R https://t.co/NXH6g4tVdm

    We’re all pretty excited about this announcement! Fingers crossed I’ll be able to visit in the future and meet some of the Swiss dev community in person. 😃🇨🇭☁️ https://t.co/oN8WsEQEwR

    Today’s To Do list tasks are all about preventing nasty pestilence:

    1) Get a flu shot
    2) Return my electronic overseas US election ballot

    A few months back I created a Lambda function “canary” to periodically check the @RoaldDahlFans site. Lately it’s been throwing a lot of errors. My SRE did some digging in the logs on the weekend and saw a lot of Apache mod_pagespeed errors…

    After disabling mod_pagespeed, looks like a sudden drop in both max execution time as well as errors! Fingers crossed this was the culprit… https://t.co/7Nxqyf4Ptj

    The beautiful orange leaves are all gone, in less than a week. I forget what it’s like to see the seasons change. 🍁 https://t.co/leoyZ3Saz9

    @LapTop006 Apparently Munich usually sees some, though I’m told it doesn’t often stick. The Snook has read that the chances are good for a white Christmas!

    I’ve been having a lot of fun with my colleagues preparing the new AWS “Developers, Let’s Build” series, and registration is now open! It’s happening Nov 16. I’m presenting module 1 on moving your existing WordPress site to AWS using Amazon Lightsail… https://t.co/W9l6C0zUYZ https://t.co/d2P15xjuvm

    While I love @QuinnyPig’s snark, the feel good stories @cjwilburn highlighted in today’s @LastWeekinAWS were exactly what I needed. Small businesses succeeding! Better health care! Training kids! Non-profits! Robot vacuum cleaners! ❤️🤗

    @cjwilburn I left out how many food references there were. You made me hungry!!! 😂

    RT @Pinboard: My own anxiety finds expression in regularly checking Amazon to make sure we’re not in the Berenstyin Bears timeline

    For as much as I complain about Indiana, I’m truly grateful that I get to exercise my right to vote electronically. Thanks to the @CityOfElkhartIN Election Board for their professionalism as always! 🇺🇸 #VOTE https://t.co/evORsWv8B6

    And thank you to @DemsAbroad as always for the timely info, tools, and even phone calls to remind me not to miss the deadline!

    RT @DemsAbroad: ❤️ We love a verified vote! 🗳 Glad we could help you #votefromabroad. 🇺🇸🌍 https://t.co/c1VJrrkwBV https://t.co/inAmSxg7bR

    @edjgeek No shadows on that background! 👏😜

    @FarrahC32 My aunt in America has already posted photos on Facebook of her tree. So you will hardly be the first!

    RT @KenTremendous: She only won by 21 votes. Yours matters. https://t.co/WedDVcvlVN

    I’ve been having a lot of fun with my colleagues preparing for the upcoming AWS “Developers, Let’s Build” series! It’s happening November 16, and registration is now open. The series is designed to enable you with fundamental AWS concepts, step by step cloud best practices and demonstrations to help you start building in the cloud. I get to kick it off in module 1 by showing you how to migrate an existing WordPress blog to Amazon Lightsail…

    I remember for my first few elections living overseas, I paid lots of money to FedEx my ballots back to Indiana to ensure they would be counted. I’m truly grateful that nowadays I’m able to vote electronically and receive confirmation that it will be counted. The folks at the Elkhart County Election Board have always been super prompt and professional, and I appreciate their efforts to make it easy to exercise this important Constitutional right! ❤️🇺🇸

    And if you haven’t yet voted, and you can, PLEASE DO IT. Even if you think all politicians are the same – which, wow, nice privilege – there are still folks running in local races that will have a much more immediate impact on your life. Think about the example you are setting to your kids, and to the rest of the world. The US was once a beacon of democracy, and every person who neglects to vote undermines the principles enshrined in our Constitution. People died for this right, and the way to honour that is to have your voice heard.

    I put on a nice dinner, IMHO. 💅 Pork cordon bleu, glazed parsnips, and salad (Napa cabbage, kohlrabi, apple, and prosciutto) with honey-mustard dressing!
