That’s Doubling Point Lighthouse in Arrowsic, Maine, near my hometown. Love opening LH to see it this morning! 

Consider this wild idea: Arranging your books like they are actual BOOKS with CONTENT that you’re actually interested in: By subject and then author!

YES! It’s criminal to arrange books by color! 

Same. Not sure if their beer is good enough to be worth it. 

EXACTLY. Thank you!

Yes, I got a plastic sleeve for mine. The nurse told me after my second shot not to laminate it as people will need to add to it in the future. 

I love maple syrup and scotch. I often make a simple Nor’easter with scotch, maple syrup, ginger ale, and a wedge of orange or lime.

I’m surprised this doesn’t recommend a more frequent pillowcase change. No way am I sleeping on the same pillowcase for 2 weeks! Oil from hair alone, not to mention the occasional drool, would make me break out like nobody’s business!

Why would you want to get rid of them and keep them away from your home? They’re loud and make you feel like you’re in a 1950s science fiction film, but they’re not actually causing much— if any— harm. And they feed small animals and birds! Can’t we just let nature do it’s thing, FFS?

I have good luck freezing stuff in jars, actually. And usually I do freeze a couple portions!

Chili is always SO much better the next day, but it’s also really yummy the first day. I’m not going to stop eating it the same day I make it bc it’s not practical.

I did this tonight with ground beef for tacos. It was a FREAKIN’ MIRACLE. Where has this been all my life?

Upgrading to a gooseneck kitchen faucet should 100% on here. SO much better than the crappy kitchen faucet in most rentals if you’re cooking and using the kitchen daily. You can find them for around $100-$150 bucks, and they are not difficult to install yourself. If you save the original faucet, you can even take the…

To answer the question in the headline, yes, 2 masks are better than one when they are 2 different KINDS of masks. This is how much public health professor friend described it to me:

I have the same problem. Since March (when I started wearing masks) I’ve been walking around stores with my glasses on the top of my head half-blind. I find the Mandala Scrubs masks work really well (fantastic bendable nose metal piece), and pushing the mask up my nose so their almost covering the corners of my eyes…

These are the BEST. They are warm, but not too warm. They stay on your feet with or without socks, and you can just slip them on without bending down. The soles are substantial enough that you can wear them outside, but they don’t make noise padding around the hardwood floors at night. They’re also washable— I’ve…

UNLESS it’s your nieces or nephews. Then I recommend buying loud toys as a way to continue to drive your siblings nuts. 

Unfortunately the generations of treasures collected by both sets of grandparents were thrown out or distributed to non-family members (there’s a lot of family drama behind that but it doesn’t matter here). There are treasured things of my grandmother’s I might have wanted— like an antique pitcher and glasses that…

My cat LOVES those plastic strips you tear off of plastic containers of salad mix. For years, wherever she is in the house, when I tear one off she runs into the kitchen. I tie a knot in it so it isn’t just a flat piece of plastic, and she carries it around for hours.

And PLEASE NO BAKED GOODS made in your own kitchen! I just don’t know how clean people are and I’m not into eating food from kitchens and people I don’t know well. It’ll go in the trash, even if your adorable kids made it (especially if kids made it— talk about a mess and no cleanliness in cooking!)
