There are certain chocolates I won’t buy in the summer, because above 25 degrees they get spongy and below 15 degrees they are flat and hard. I think it’s why most drugstore chocolate in the U.S. tastes like cocoa scented candle wax. It has to withstand the heat.

My cockatiels have learned that “Hey Google, broadcast it’s dinner time” means it’s time to fly to the table and ambush the food as it’s delivered.

Thank you for the response, but that’s the thing, I don’t want to scroll. Steps are a basic function and they should be available on the watch face.

Mine is five years old and I haven’t missed wearing it for a day. There are so many little features that I like (controlling my HomeKit home, finding my phone, playing my music with AirPods on a run, heart rate alerts, taking calls) and I’ll replace it when it’s gone, but I have a hard time recommending to anyone at that price point. I can’t get over that I need to buy a third party app to see my step count and it doesn’t even sync regularly.

I didn’t use mine for years until I got a wireless charger stand to use with my phone in landscape mode. I love it for my office desk. Combined with work focus, I only see a clock or large relevant notifications. I can answer work calls without messing with a cord. And when I leave at the end of the day, it’s charged. The old flat charger is still sitting in a drawer though.

I won one at an office Christmas party, took a time lapse of my chia pet, put it in a drawer for a year and felt guilty, then sold it to a ski instructor. It’s kind of like taking a video of fireworks or a concert. Unless you’re doing some wild extreme sports, who’s editing and rewatching that kind of video?

Ok but that is an enormous bite. If it’s an unknown candy, I’m going in with a tentative nibble.

Last year this claim went around for the Loblaws No Name brand in Canada so I went shopping with my kitchen scale, preparing to be outraged. Everything was a solid 10% over the advertised weight.

Once they can also meal plan based on budgets and weekly sales, I’ll be in.

Yikes. I could have phrased that better.

I think it’s more cathartic to post pictures of my departed pets in the present tense. I get to share my little beauties when I'm feeling sentimental, others get a dose of cuteness, and nobody has to think about how short of a time they're with us.

Yummy mint to roll on, bricks for scratching, and a catnip plot just for her. Kaylee loves the herb garden.
