Summer reading
I know there have been questions in the past about what we're watching, but I'm wondering what you're reading at the moment! I'm looking to get a few new books for summer and I'd love to hear if you have any recent recommendations. If you have any good spots here to get EN language books in person, too, I'd appreciate if you would share those as well!

How do you add photos now?
I'm still having difficulties with adding photos. If I add one in the body of the text, the way we all used to do, it shows as the text "{the title of the blog post} photo", without actually showing the photo. The photo I am trying are less than 3 mb. If I try to add any to the gallery area they won't upload, I just get an "upload failed" or equivalent type of message. I also get an "upload failed" when I tried to add a photo (875.2kb in size) to this question!

I just wrote a post about how my younger two children's school lunch will be free hereafter. However, I don't know if this is just my town or nationally.
