I don't have extended family. Just a brother that I don't see that often. I don't enjoy "family" Christmas and Thanksgiving gatherings. They are staged and stiff and not fun. My brother-in-law is a Debby Downer and only...

B So true! It seems they have the guts to say anything just because they do it behind a computer and they can't be held accountable of what they say and so some rude people just bash or humiliate unashamedly and blatantly.

But I must cut back on buying them. The myriad of new Oreo flavors are wonderful. I was never a fan of them growing up, but lately, I have had a sweet tooth. Do you buy Oreos and would you like this new toffee kind? Again, a good...

B I do buy Oreo but I find it too sweet for my liking so most often I would buy similar other brands and skip Oreo. But I'd like to try that, just for the sake of trying what's new with Oreo.

B I like it more when I make it myself but those in box are okay. They're convenient and good for quick cooking. If I have cream, I add more to make it creamier, more cheese, chicken shreds or bacon (if I have) , some spices/herbs. Whatever I have at home.

B To be honest, I'm not into Olympics or any kind of sport, so I'm really not looking forward to anything. I usually would just hear news on TV about how our country's rep are doing, other than that, nothing. I don't watch at all.

B Couldn't remember anymore! Geez... my first pay check... That was so long ago, like 20-25 years ago. But I'm quite sure, I gave a part of it to my mother or treat both my parents and my sibling, something like that.

B @RebeccasFarm Exactly why libraries now has also become digital. They have to utilize technology also in the services that they provide. They just have to keep up with the times to stay relevant.
