Nuts and gum, together at last.

Gimme 5 bees for a quarter.

I remember when my kid was <2, especially, feeling like moms needed a Missed Connections section on Craigslist.

Wow, I totally didn’t go there, but was about to make a similar comment about general lack of originality. If she has any more, I assume, what? Liam and Sophie? Ava and Jack?
