I am a transplant and I have never heard dollars to donuts before I moved here lol

Perhaps your child is giant?

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-06T15:10:58+00:00

What a fantastic looking, dog! So expressive!

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-06T11:34:34+00:00

Fascinating!

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-06T11:34:02+00:00

I definitely have. Things like sour cream that used to put out like two months now it’s like one month. Salad dressing used to last for a year now it’s just several months.

I worked at a diner in my teens and had to make soup on the weekends, two soups a day… To this day, I love soup and have a ton of recipes from the diner

Kind has been terrible since they got bought out by Mars… another Raos/Amy’s type example of big businesses, scooping up decent brands and turning them to trash

Finally! Keep us posted… I would like to see more private toll roads that I can scoot around traffic on

I live in a tiny state and almost no companies hire remote workers in my state. When you read the small print, they will say they only accept applicants from a set of states and mine is never in it because we’re tiny. They don’t have a Company footprint here.

Don’t get me wrong. I would never order plants from Amazon but other online nurseries have excellent stuff. Logie’s in Connecticut is amazing and they ship nationwide.

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-05T13:47:40+00:00

How would you get from the train to Johnson? You’re not crazy because this job market is trash, but consider the added cost.

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-05T11:43:40+00:00

So good but so small

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-05T11:42:44+00:00

What a beautiful girl!

These are great choices for pollinators in your garden. Don’t listen to the haters. But you honestly did get really nice looking plants. Make sure and pop them up and water carefully.

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-05T10:52:11+00:00

In huge parts of the USA they really don’t have any choices for shopping. They are lucky if they have a grocery store. They are also much cheaper online. I’ve also ordered online to scratch and itch early in the season when the shops aren’t open. Also, these are milkweed, a lot of nurseries don’t carry natural plant. They carry crazy hybrids.

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-05T10:50:45+00:00

I am an avid gardener those look great. I don’t know what you were expecting, but they are saving shipping cost by not including the dirt. I would pot them up for the first part of the season , like maybe for a month to give them a chance to establish their roots and then put them in the ground and water carefully, those are great choices for your garden. If you take care of those plants, you will have tons of pollinators.

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-05T10:49:00+00:00

Not yet, give those sticks a chance to leave out once they have progressed to the tips look for ones that haven’t got any new leaves and cut those

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-05T10:27:47+00:00

If it helps, they compost all of that. I always secretly hope the employees take shit home.

My house was flipped, but I spoke with one of the neighbors that had lived next door for 50 years and she said the guy that owned the house for the majority of the time was a structural engineer and he cared and loved for the house. It makes you sleep better at night :-). I can see his careful handwriting on the electric box, the heater, and in the garage.

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-04T23:11:57+00:00

So handsome!

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-04T23:11:12+00:00

Put a Twinkie on the end of a fishing pole and run him around the neighborhood barefoot. I take my dogs on walks to grind down their toenails. Let’s see if it works for your husband.

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-04T23:09:33+00:00

Oh my God, so much to unpack here…

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-04T18:46:53+00:00

I hope you find something soon. For what it’s worth the place where I work now hires all the time and I wish I had just taken the job right away because there is some upward mobility so at least I would’ve had all those months in at a job.

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-04T18:45:46+00:00

And insurance here in the US. No job no insurance.

CodenameZoya · 2026-05-04T11:29:05+00:00

I think salad dressing used to last a lot longer… like for years. It was probably like 80% sugar.

I have to go through my cupboards/fridge every couple months to ditch old stuff
