For me, the best part of enjoying the Olympics is the stories we learn about these ordinary, extraordinary people. The humanity—something that we so need right now. People are amazing.

Girl Scout cookie G.O.A.Ts 🏆 🍪 But there can only be one G.O.A.T., so to which do you award that honor?
I say caramel deLites. They’re just *slightly* yummier.

Wintertime tip: I just learned from my son’s teacher that if you tuck the fur trim of your hood under, it provides a ton more warmth and insulation to your head and body. It’s a game changer, try it! ❄️

This is for real, not a joke. It’s waffle flavored (I think because Millie Bobbie Brown’s character liked waffles) with demagorgon marshmallows! I might try and save the box. I’m sure there are purists out there who are not even opening it, to keep it in mint condition.
