Fargo ass looking place

A landscape that is flat and covered in snow, like the opening shot of the movie “Fargo.” Except it’s sunny.

Pickle Cat, nighttime friend

A lovely gray-and-tan tortoiseshell cat is laying on a bed, looking at the camera. You can’t see it, but she is purring.

I got an unexpected package in the mail, and this card was inside. You will never in a million years guess what the free gift was.

A small, white card with black lettering that reads: “GIFT - Thanks for your Walmart order. We have shipped the order in a separate package. This is a FREE gift for you. If you have any questions, please feel free to send us a message through your order on the Walmart site or app.”

This is potentially the greatest two-page spread in any cookbook ever

Two cookbook pages. One recipe is for “Swiss-Style Liver” (thinly sliced beef livers cooked in stewed tomatoes) and one is for “Frankfurter Divan Casserole” (cut-up cheese hot dogs and frozen broccoli in cream of mushroom soup, topped with crushed Ritz crackers). Both are unique travesties.
