Oddly enough, they’ll be announcing the person they select on the second day of Pesach, which is a three-day-chag this year because the first night is Saturday. That means I and other religious Jews can’t participate in a 24-hour digital detox because of a 73-hour digital detox.

Sweet! A couple books, a hotel room away form the 8 month old, 3 year old and wife, and I’d be set!
Read some and sleep for like 20 hours!

Let’s be real. The only reason it was called “the China virus” and that we had people taking it out on Asian-Americans is because the ignorant orange psychopath in the White House perpetuated exactly those things (and still is, even though his Twitter Tantrums have been silenced).

Nah, the Freedom Medal is fine. Him receiving one just comes with an asterisk...

*This Freedom Medal awarded by Donald Trump

Folks on Twitter putting it better than I could.

Which location? Avoid the downtown one and go to NE Davis St. It’s bigger, like a fast food joint, and therefore faster.

I am familiar with buying too many doughnuts.  I am not familiar with having leftover doughnuts.

I think the more important part of this is that they won’t let you on the flight. It’s not like you just get to pay $250 and then walk on the flight with no mask.

There is a provision in the rule that would allow them to decrease or increase the fine “based on aggravating factors,” so I’d like to think if someone in first class was being obnoxious about it, they would hit them with a much larger fine.

Poor people in this case “being people who can afford to take a flight yet refuse to wear a mask because... they can’t afford one?” I’m not sure that applies here.

Boooo...urns.

plus you have full access to all the snacks in the place

I also am perpetually freezing and constantly have ice cold feet and hands, and my boyfriend is always astonished on the occasion they happen to be warm. And then I hold the alcohol. 

I could have written that, word for word. You just described me. BTW I have found that a large glass of red wine will also warm up my feet. (my Dr. told me to stop drinking wine to warm up my feet and put some socks on.  she seems to have missed the part where I ALWAYS have my feet covered up.)

Don’t you dare counter me by being reasonable, how dare you.

‘Neeps and taties. I am calling them this from now on!

I made some from a similar recipe for friends last Christmas and it was a hit. Pick up some of those glass resealable kombucha bottles and it can be refrigerated for a few weeks. I’ve already received most of those bottles back with questions about another batch this Christmas. Haha.

I’ve been making a version that steeps cracked espresso beans and cacao nibs in heated cream and brown sugar. That gets strained into the sweetened condensed milk and then blended with a pint of Irish whiskey. It sits for a week in the fridge to meld and it is the BEST THING EVER in coffee.

This was one of the best books that I’ve ever read.
