Go for the pets.

My aunt's (successful) obsession with getting her home on the cover of AD led to my uncle blocking the gate to her stately home with the ugliest junk car he could find, chucking the keys into the ivy, and filing for divorce.

Little Verbo on the Prairie. A new hipster family moves in every week. The put-upon cleaning crew ties the episodes together.

That is what my people would call "a fuck ton of sauce."

(Also, I'm having lasagne tonight, but it's made by a Canadian, so I don't know what I'm in for.)

F*ck. Pauline and Prunella in the same week is too much.
