For all the carbs I’ve loved before,
found once again and filled my board,
I’ve treasured every bite, with satisfied delight.

My mom owned a nursery school. Beginning at age 10, I cooked dinner for my family and made several of the side dishes at Thanksgiving. For the last 60+ years the recipes have evolved. Thanksgiving is my favorite holiday. Yesterday I learned my kids aren’t coming any more. I had a good cry.

Ever get water in your ear?

On the recommendation from a nurse at CVS’s Minute Clinic. She said to tip my head to the side and drop two drops of rubbing alcohol. No need to wait, jump up and down, or hit the side of your head, just lift your head normally. It’s done. Why did we not know this????

This makes sense.
You wouldn’t vacation in Dachau in 1935. Don’t vacation in Florida in 2025.
We’re calling for a Florida boycott over the inhumane “Alligator Alcatraz” detention site. Cancel your family vacation and choose a different destination this summer.
