I had no idea. Was there any reaction to the latest (current) surge in anti-Asian bigotry described in our media?
You have trouble with a bag of 10 gummies being fused into one big gummie? I always have to gnaw off a chunk, like chawin' tobacco.
Not really unless it sits out in the sun or something. I like the 20/5mg packages. Two of those is all you need.
I live in basically a desert outside San Diego and since I have to keep my house relatively high temp to keep energy costs down this gummy bear problem is real for me. I keep the house at around 80 degrees F. But it's also over 100 degrees for sometimes months at a time, and California energy costs are insane, so it isn't unreasonable. Gummy bears and chocolate fuse pretty often in the summer and I hate it.
I finally found a pair of blue jeans that don't look like they've already been worn for a year of ranch work.
You should get a refrigerator... Never mind. Just realized by the time you get them home they're probably already fused. Maybe you need a little ice chest in the car?
In some cases, segregation is appropriate. Gummy bears and chocolate should live separately unless, of course, they're deliberately combined into chocolate covered gummy bears, in which case heat will probably melt the chocolate off the gummy bears before fusing them together into a basically inedible mass. Sigh. The social and biological lives of chocolate and gummy bears are so complex.
A headache. Brought to me by Hangover. Hangover: The afterparty you didn't want. To be fair, celebrations are worth it. I think.
A digital switch timer so I can make better use of my slow cooker. By the time I get home from work it’s too late to start, but if I prepare the dish the night before and have it timed to come on at about 14:30 it shouldn’t be far off finished when I get in from work.
I don't know that one, but I have a G-13 gamepad from back when I was earning stripper money* that's rarely done me wrong. Spoiler: * No, I wasn't stripping. Not even Mrs. A wants to see that. But I was getting paid in cash at the end of the night, with a big box electronics store and a couple-two-three bars between the job and home. Not a lot of that cash made it into the bank account, and the G-13 was exactly what I made in one night. Minus tax.

It’s always amazing how the small simple pleasures can enhance an experience. Like new wiper blades being able to keep up with the rain, allowing you to see where the hell you’re going. And it only cost me $40.
My 20 year old table lamp finally called it quits when one day it stopped working properly. I went all over the shopping centre to search for another one and the biggest department stores sold everything else in the book besides a lamp for your side table. Wha?? So I decided to use the traditional route and search for one online. eBay sold a few for a reasonable £29.99 just not to my satisfaction. Then I decided to browse the argos catalogue online and finally discovered this: With 3 touch tone settings, you can adjust the brightness with a tap of your hand. No more fiddling for the switch. Perfect! And the pastel colours also go well with the furnishing. … The best part about it is I bought it for a reasonable £8 (excluding dimmable light bulb) and it has since gone up to 12. Baaargain! Let’s see you top that one eBay! Sold.
That's a pretty lamp, and it sounds cleverly designed, but here in the US, depending on the design, you could probably fix the old lamp for around $8 US (pretty easy). Not sure of the cost in other money.
Off to buy a new posture-friendly mattress for one of my dogs. I'm tired of carting the one we have up and down the stairs at night so she has something comfortable to sleep on. We have two or three other dog beds as well but the new puppy is steadily and happily gutting them. Puppy is not quite 4 months old and weighs 38 pounds. We suspect he might be a large dog when grown.
