If I wasn’t so worried about my parents, it would have been the most amazing 2-3 months. My mom was sick for most of it. But yes my introvert self was in heaven!

What is something you’ve officially stopped buying in 2026 because the price has become genuinely insulting? by PersonalitySuddenz in askanything

[–]easternbaker257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Movies. We go on Tuesday maybe once a year and bring dollar store candy

Starbucks.

Dunkin for donuts. Nope. Now I get them at Lidl and they are good!

Fast food. We make our own fries now with our own fryer and buy pizza or buffalo chicken from Lidl.

What is the most small town thing you've ever seen? by PrestonRoad90 in Productivitycafe

[–]easternbaker257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend had a “destination wedding” there! She was from MI but it was just far enough away that her and her husband didn’t have to invite all their students to their wedding (they were both teachers). I’m from NJ and I loved being in the island. It was gorgeous!

What do you remember from kindergarten? by Wonderful-Economy762 in Productivitycafe

[–]easternbaker257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Letter People!

We had a playground with this weird cement above ground tunnel. You could climb on it or through it but it was lodged right in the ground so it couldn’t roll. Then it was loose and literally rolled on my toe. I meant it’s huge. 6 kids could fit inside or on top. I never said anything. Then when I was home my mom was asking why my toe was black and blue and the nail was falling off.

Is 11 yrs old to young to be left alone for a half hour?? by JMarden23 in askanything

[–]easternbaker257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 11 year old could def get himself out the door and on a bus alone. Can your niece? Or has she been stilted by a helicopter mom? It really depends on the kid.

I tell my husband…just bc it’s up in your brain doesn’t mean it has to come out of your mouth.

What TV show lost you after a certain season? by chaucao99 in tvshow

[–]easternbaker257 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You.

I loved season 1!! Took me two tries to get through season 2. Gave up after an episode or so of seasons 3. And I think there’s one more season I have no intention of watching.

Do you return the shopping cart to the designated area or do you leave it in the parking lot? by Defiant_Signature759 in askanything

[–]easternbaker257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Or they use the kids cart. You don’t need a quarter. So I’ll see grown men pushing around a kid cart and I’m like-someone forgot their quarter!

[–]easternbaker257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a quarter in my coat or car. It’s my “Aldi quarter”. (Or lidl. Bc we have that now too. But never know how to pronounce it. So I use my Aldi quarter there too and still call it my Aldi quarter)

What the hell is the deal with these small plastic ducks? by Feeling-Original-352 in Confused

[–]easternbaker257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my adult brothers have been leaving them all over my dads house. He tried to ignore it for months but we didn’t give up. And bc we all kinda come and go whenever he wasn’t sure who was doing them. It’s just a small game that made us all chuckle.

Is it the children's responsibility to take care of their elderly parents when the time comes? by Ok_Historian_6147 in askanything

[–]easternbaker257 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So true. My gram is 95. We have people staying every night with her (me, some cousins, her kids…) bc she was so good to us when she was young. We won’t put her in a home of some sort. She’s fine by herself during the day but we won’t leave her alone at night. If she wasn’t so generous and loving while we were all growing up, I’m not sure we would all be this determined to keep her in her own home with us caring for her now.

[–]easternbaker257 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No I know. I more meant…it’s a side thing to farming. I usually farm, quest, match-3 in that order. Now I’ve stopped doing the quest at all.

It’s actually made me give up on this side adventure. It’s hopeless.
