Well, we didn't get them until last year....maybe you'll get them soon? There are so many things I couldn't get when I first moved here. I really learned how to cook and bake because so much stuff wasn't available, like Crisco and Baking Soda....I had to stock up when I was in the US and bring...

I will have to ask my best friend to send some so I can try them.

Oh, they know I want to learn more. I was literally told it would have to wait because Ramona needed to be trained first. And just a few weeks ago, she said she was going to schedule me on a particular day because we get the shipment that day and she can finally teach me how to do all that. So...

How can she afford all these houses?? We can barely afford one with an engineer's salary and a part timer in retail. And it's a small house in a low income neighborhood!

Happy birthday, @MickeyCB !

I LOVE TJ Klune. House in the Cerulean Sea is so good! I need to read the sequel. Have you read u Under the Whispering Door? I sobbed for that last 100 pages, I swear, but it was so so good. In the Lives of Puppets was cute, but not as good as his others I've read.

I'm hoping it will start snowing here soon. We've gotten snow for the last two days, but it doesn't stick. Today is the last day it's supposed to have a chance of snowing, so I hope it does.

I don't know what Butterfinger Christmas bells are...we don't have butterfinger here except in specialty shop with American or UK products. I love butterfinger and reeses. Reeses used to not be available anywhere here either, but in the last 2 years, it's become more available. I can even get...

It's not abnormal for contracts to not be renewed. They changed the law here a few years back and it was meant to protect the worker and give job stability. It actually did the opposite. You used to be able to renew contracts infinitely... Like, a person could be hired for 6 months and then just...

It's sad really. I'm sure it was hard for her being a single mom, but where is the new husband in all of this? A step-parent can't really take the place of a parent... They don't have the history with the kids. It's too easy for the parents to play favorites with their own kids over the step...

I got my flu shot last week... Or was it two weeks ago. Anyway, the Covid shot has always just been to reduce the severity as far as they told us here. And if you've had Covid recently, you don't need a booster. I just had Covid a month or two ago and they always said if you had gotten it, you...

It sounds like she got in over her head and then it just became normal to her. But it isn't a situation I would want to walk into,especially with kids. Maybe she's in denial? Or maybe she's afraid of doing something about all the issues because then she'd be alone? Like... What happens if she...

I finished the christmas tree farm and then moved on to a non-fiction book about a distant Jane Austen relative who grew up in the house where Jane spent her last few years and where she did most of her writing. It was interesting, but not a whole lot about Jane herself, which was a little...

It was.....ok. I didn't like it NEARLY as much as the first two. I can't stand the main character and it's very....erotic centered, which is not my thing. I'm hoping number 4 will be better.

It can be so hard navigating relationships with parents as an adult. I think sometimes the parents never let go of the expectation of having an authoritative role in their kids' lives. Throw in some politics or religion (or both) and it can be really hard if they won't respect your autonomy...

No, it's kind of a ridiculous actually. They say I'm "too slow" and that they feel like they have to do everything themselves when they work with me. But what's stupid is that when I started, there was one other gal who started just a couple of weeks before me. The boss kept saying she hadn't...

I'm so sorry about his job. I hate the uncertainty that comes with that. I'm looking at not having a job by then too, and it's really frustrating.

I wish they would send me a sticker! I never know if my ballot is accepted.

Finished cinnamon bun bakery. It was sweet. Now I'm going to start the next one in the series... I think it's Christmas Tree Farm or something like that.

I hear f from a lot of people who don't like either candidate, which I get. But you don't have to date them. You have to believe they will do what's best for the country and work for the people. You're never going to agree with 100% of the policies. So you have to choose the one who supports...
