My First Iced Americano

luisadannointed @luisadannointed (12778) • Philippines 26 Aug

This is my first time to drink a cafe americano, I always drink iced latte, and I am glad that the barista did not make it too bitter. I like how they blend a bit of sugar in it since it is my first time trying it. My readers...

I’m back! (please contain your excitement)

Amber @AmbiePam (126686) • United States 2 Sep

Well, it took a long while, but I got back with better teeth and a numb upper lip. That’s fine; it will wear off. I go back September 22nd to have a new mouthpiece made (I grind my teeth). I just hope I don’t chip my teeth before...

Ban the Thin Blue Line

Jim Bauer @porwest (113640) • United States 13 Aug

I have long stood as a steadfast champion of those who wear the badge—men and women who daily place themselves between order and chaos. Yet the Thin Blue Line Flag has always struck me as a profound contradiction of the very...

That Was GOOD!

Exotic Animals as Domestic Pets

Amber @AmbiePam (126686) • United States 3 Aug

Do you think it should be legal to have exotic pets at your home? I don’t mean wildlife organizations that jump through hoops to get permits. I mean like the case in my city with a resident whose cayman got out and is currently...

What Can You Eat on Carnivore Diet?

Courtney Dutton @MommyOfEli2013 (93194) • Rupert, Idaho 1 Aug

I shared the other day about what a carnivore diet is. I thought it might be too long to share all the foods that you can eat on a carnivore diet though. By diet I mean way of eating, not necessarily "diet" where you are...
