Up first on this weeks Spotlight is a post by @eyedreemit who shares her experience with a nesting family of Mourning Doves. We get a great story full of emotion, suspense, and interesting information. As well as how it relates to building empathy and supporting rigorous thinking among her students!

For our second featured post this week @csusbgeochem1 takes us with him to the SoCal steemit meetup hosted by @mariannewest in San Diego. He got to meet some new Steemians and learn about all kinds of new apps for the Steem blockchain as well as learn about old social media sites that preceded Steemit.

Up next we have a post by @inalittlewhile who tells us the story of his friend Robbie who while out in the desert got stuck by a cactus, and had quite a struggle to remove the needle! He not only tells us the story, but also gives us a great metaphor that is a good life lesson for anyone.

In the final post of the week @creationofcare shows us how she uses some "weeds" as delicious and nutritious ingredients for her mouthwatering "Chickweed and Lamb's Quarter Lasagna"! She takes us step by step through the process from harvesting the "weeds", to prepping the rest of the dish, and finally baking it to perfection!

Hehe. Robbie actually pulled the needle out of the cactus. Not out of himself. :)

It's my pleasure!
