That would be fine with me. I listen when I’m beekeeping, and I can’t watch anything or fiddle with my phone while I’m moving full frames of bees.

After Amazon bought WF, they stopped stocking the products that I regularly bought. Then they stopped carrying single serving portions, so that had to buy more than you needed. I haven’t been back since I quit WaPo.

This looks great. My mom and I would have club sandwiches on toasted white bread at the local department store. I can’t remember the last time I had a club sandwich.

That’s a great 80s movie! I subjected my 22 yo daughter to suspense films from the 80s and 90s and one was Double Jeopardy (really, anything with Tommy Lee Jones or Gene Hackman), also The Net, with Sandra Bullock. (One of Carl Reiner’s favorite movies.)

That’s great to hear! Anywhere outside of Iowa City, Ames, or Fairfield is pretty red, so that’s very encouraging

They’re fantastic and break down to store. (Somewhat) I dried pears this year and they were so much sweeter than fresh. I’ve dried prune plums, apricots, and apples. I also use it for drying greens for my tortoise over the winter.

My daughter is 22 and I know all of these girl dad haunts. I have also stepped in to help edit when I’ve seen my overwhelmed husband with a full shopping cart and a blank expression. Good luck, Waj

It’s stressful enough being pregnant without even more doubts about “doing the right thing”. Ugh

The noses are a really bad idea too. Just polished all of the personality out of the drawings. It’s like an overworked painting

I’m team top down, (I’ve been knitting socks since the 80s), but I’ll do toe up if I like the pattern…
