Joy Drop: In celebration of Ramadan and all things colourful

Hello, friends! What an incredibly colourful week! And that's where I begin this week's Joy Drop.

I was looking through my social media when I saw Crayola Canada responded to PWHL superfan Debbie Harrison's request for a new purple colour.  My colleague wrote about Harrison and how she wears a new costume to every Toronto game she attends. 

Powerplay Plum will soon be in boxes and art kits all over Canada.  

I spent the past week in Spain at a conference with 17 sports scholars with the Wenner-Gren Foundation. It was really empowering and incredible to meet academics from all over the world who are dedicated to the analysis and examination of sports connected to anthropology. These are people whose expertise I teach or go to for context for issues in sport.

Learning is something that excites me and the opportunity to enjoy a new place with brilliant minds is a recipe for joy. 

Another incredible recipe is from Chocolateria San Gines. This store opened in 1894 and is in the heart of Madrid. I stepped away from the walking tour we were on for a few moments in order to grab an order of churros with chocolate.
