There's no mop emoji, so I guess a broom will have to do?

But...Hell yeah!

Happy Neko Case at DPAC day!!

🌚🐦‍⬛🌪️🦊

It's also the end of our concert extravaganza super streak.

There's a few coming up, but there's some breathing room in between.

Lots of thoughts + vibes + our annual #OctoberMovies updates are still on the way.

But for now, keep being rad to each other! ♥️

The curry cookie recipe I don't have, my husband's cousin made them a few years back, and they were sooooo good - I'll see if he still has the info.

Amanda @refinedladybug.bsky.social · 7d

😂 That's fair. I'll eat almost anything once!

But for real, I had these at a conference a few years ago and they were so much better than they had any right to be.

(Also it cracks me up that the recipe was developed by the official Beef people.)

Peanut Butter, Chocolate-Hazelnut and Chocolate Chip Beef Jerky Cookies

This cookie is definitely worth a try! Creamy peanut butter and chocolaty hazelnut spread and highlighted by the smoky and salty flavors of Beef Jerky.

I mean, beef jerky cookies and curry cookies are both amazing, so...maybe? Once? For Science?

Oooh, so fun! I've only spent a couple of days in San Juan, but I know there's so much more to see. It's high on my visit again soon list!

Are you there for the whole week? Have you been before?

Amanda @refinedladybug.bsky.social · 14d

But I hope the clip-ons work great too and you have an amazing time at the beach! (if you go? Are you still deciding?)

Amanda @refinedladybug.bsky.social · 14d

Yes!

I remember seeing them up and thinking, "Wait, what are these? Like grandma eye doctor glasses?"

And then I put them on and was immediately like, "Ohhhh. That's what's up, these are amazing." They're so comfortable! lol

So I guess...be on the lookout if you're at a big gas station/travel stop?

Amanda @refinedladybug.bsky.social · 14d

They are simultaneously very dorky and one of the best things I own. 😆

Cheap, sturdy, eliminates me needing to get Rx sunnies (I was getting really close...), and my regular glasses get to stay on my face, so they also don't get lost or smashed in the shuffle.

This pair is kind of close? But mine don't have those weird side panel lenses.

So they get knocked around and bonked by keys and other things.

Holding up great!

I tried to get a shot of the back of the frames and arms, but it's not great - hopefully it shows that they're not crazy thick, and that the arms are normal!

Also that website is defunct, so...🤷🏼

Amanda @refinedladybug.bsky.social · 14d

Yesss. This is exactly it. I'm...not kind to sunglasses. I'll lose them (which is actually how I ended up with these, left the previous pair at a relative's house), or they'll fall off and I'll manage to step on them, etc.
😅

But these have been STURDY, and they live between my car and my purse...

Well we had one taker, but if something changes and just one of them wants to come, there's still one ticket left..?
