That's...actually good macro-wise, relatively speaking! I'll have to keep an eye out as an Easter treat.

Couple of thoughts: 1. No more "Disagree" button, which was a big issue on this thread and others. I'm glad it's gone. 2. I work in state government, and they just relaxed the mask mandates and health surveys for employees starting today. Employees only have to be masked if they have been exposed to COVID per CDC…

How does it compare to Peanut PB Fit?

Wherever it is, it's rooted in magic...

I've been thinking about getting an air fryer. How often do you use yours?

That looks like it would either be absolutely amazing or absolutely disgusting--I doubt there would be middle ground!

(Sorry I'm just replying to this!) From the beginning of the pandemic to the fall of this year, we've just been very careful: always doing take-out, avoiding crowds, being consistent with mask wearing. My daughter also insisted when everything shut down for us to take the dog on long hikes every day at a park near our…

I've noticed it, too. I'm not sure if it's the new Community platform, the threads I subscribe to just have run their course, or the kids are socializing elsewhere. I'll be logging daily until I die, so I'll always stop in to see what's going on. But, yes, it's getting a little ghost-towny around here...

After almost three years of being *so* gods-damn careful, I've got Omnicron. I'm vaxxed and boosted; I have mild symptoms and just tired all the time. My workplace mandates isolation for five days, complete masking for five when reporting to work; no negative test required. I hope my kids (also vaxxed, one boosted) can…

Anyone have a bead on Black Friday specials? I'm hoping Skinny Syrups has something good, I need more Mermaid syrup...

Huh...I didn't realize that vaccine resistance continues to be such a problem worldwide.

The chicken looks dubious...

It also may have to do with exposure--COVID-19 is new to all of us, relatively speaking. We've been exposed to influenza our whole lives in some form or another, so the flu vaccinations won't necessarily have the impact. The J&J vaccine, on the other hand, knocked me on my *kitten* the next day, and I welcomed it,…

While I'm waiting for my booster to be approved (J&J), I got my flu shot at the VA last week. PSA: Tis the season...

I'm so grateful to my school district that basically sent an email to all the families a few weeks ago and said, "Everyone is wearing a proper mask, The End." No debates, no arguments: either mask up, enroll in the virtual academy, or homeschool. Two districts over, though? They were going to go mask optional until our…

@SModa61 circumstances like those posed above is why the subreddit is so popular, unfortunately. It's not necessarily about being cruel (though, it happens), it's about witnessing the natural consequences for someone's actions as well as being frustrated with people who cannot be bothered with promoting the general welfare…

The schadenfreude is pretty potent on social media right now. There is a dedicated subreddit, for example, to posting several excerpts from someone's anti-vax Facebook timeline to a final post announcing their (usually awful and painful) death from COVID. They scrub the identifying components, of course, but someone in…

I love the idea, but I wonder how much you need to add to something to get the Twix taste?

I'm glad it was tasty! I'm surprised at the macros, though--230 cal/45g carbs/10g protein per serving. I guess I'm used to cauliflower products being more keto friendly...

My husband and I were both in the military, too--we had the "marriage in minutes" in a Virginia courthouse in the early 90s, immediately followed by a sign-off by a marriage broker. We wanted to be married to each other before he went to Kosovo, so we did. We had a large party for family and friends when he got back. In…

Maybe! :)

Have they run out of flavor combinations or something? Eww....!

Also, it seems any mention of masks, one way or the other, gets at least one Disagree on this thread. I, for one, actually like wearing masks in public, but that's more about my social anxiety. In reality, I'd only wear them in the future if I'm sick myself.

Oh, my...

That is the rub, isn't it? I carry my vaccination card everywhere I go, but there's no legal mechanism for anyone to ask to see it--it's all based on the honor system. I can see why they dont want to start asking people for their "papers" except when boarding a plane, perhaps, but this is why I have to keep monitoring my…

It's been a long time since Built Bar had a sale. They need to have one, because I am out. That is all.

Actually, he has no symptoms at all, which is why it was such a shock that he tested positive. He was discharged this morning, and both my mother and brother had negative tests. Mine hasn't come back yet, but other than exhausted from all this drama, I feel OK, too. I did eat *way* too many m&ms and Reece's pieces when I…

My parents were fully vaccinated with the Pfizer vaccine a month ago, I received the J&J vaccine around the same time. I had to take my father to the hospital to replace a defibrillator battery. After about four hours in the ER, they did a COVID test for him, and it was positive. So, I had to leave the hospital…

I always appreciate your links, @Noreenmarie1234 ! <3 For me, I need a sustainable source of high-protein cereal that I can order regularly--I take my dalliances with samples very seriously when I'm in the market, and $10/box is too *kitten* high, :)

I would love to try these, but I would want something more than good cereal for $10.00/box... Yikes.
