Try not to also eat too much raw cookie dough!🤣

Yeah that’s pretty much what I do, too. But it’s also easy enough to just make her something I know she’ll eat and be done with it.

I have now read two reviews of the new James Baldwin book that make me wonder why the reviewers even read Baldwin let alone a 700 page book ABOUT him.

These parents who are like “I’m not making more than one meal! They can eat it or not!” So then what if they don’t eat it? Are they just whining at you all night because they’re hungry or how does that work??

I guess I’m one of the few people on earth who doesn’t mind the presence of the tip screen at registers. Like, just bypass it if you don’t want to use it. But also I don’t mind tossing in 50 cents or $1 because even though they didn’t serve me at a table they still prepared my stuff.
