When my kid was a toddler we told her, “Why did the turkey crosse the road? Because the chicken was on vacation.”
She thought it was hilarious and would retell it with 2 random things she could see at the time: “Why did the couch cross the road? Because the floor was on vacation.”
Fiddlehead ferns. But also the old standby cucumbers.
Thanks for asking this, I’ve got some new picking to try!
Very true. I play what I like to call “brain candy” games. Nothing that requires too much thinking, as most of the day my brain is trying to run a marathon at a sprinting speed.
Yeah, Cozy Grove is on my switch. As you advance in the game, you unlock more map. More map means more NPC critters roaming around. I think I unlocked 8-9 bears before it got noticeable, but there are 17 in all and I don’t know if my switch can make it to that many.
I just started Ring Fit last week, as I found a good deal on an open box game. I’m still trying to get the leg sensor to register my movement correctly, but so far the levels are fun.
Thank you
I can. I wouldn’t be so arrogant as to assume I know what everyone’s experience is, or to claim my experience is the single universal experience.
Surely you can accept that it is the case for some
It happened to me when I was 8 (not by Woody Allen). I can still remember every detail. It sticks with you
I’m very boring - most likely Animal Crossing and Ring Fit Adventure on switch and Slime Rancher 2 on xbox. Maybe do some stuff in my family’s Minecraft realm
Thinking about restarting Cozy Grove since I haven’t played it in so long, but I stopped because the lag got worse every time I got a new bear
The US forests got used to not having them, so now some trees like maples need a thick layer of leaves on the ground to trap moisture around their roots so they don’t dry out. There are also native plants that need this layer to help protect them from temperature swings.

Don’t give them any ideas lol
There’s a store near us that almost always has some kind of sale going on. The catch is it isn’t immediate savings - you have to fill out and send in a rebate form. If you manage to do that, they send you “store credit” as a physical piece of paper you have to remember to bring to the store. I often wonder what percent of rebates never get submitted or used. Probably pretty high.
I had a laugh the other day because one of their competitors was advertising an “instant savings, no waiting for rebates” sale.
We still pay allowance in cash for our preteen. It gets divided into save, give and spend. If there’s something she wants purchased online, she pays us the cash and we order it with our card. If the purchase is going to take most/all of her current spending money we do point that out but don’t prevent her from spending it.
I’m not sure yet what we’ll do when she gets closer to driving age. Most likely get a debit card so she can get that experience before going out on her own after graduation. But for now we want to build a more solid connection of physically parting with the money when it’s spent.
