Jeff Moffitt We made a large Easter breakfast, and there was so much food that we thought it would hold us over throughout the entire day, but around 8pm we all realized we were hungry again. And like your situation, everything here was closed due to it being Easter....

Have you ever been robbed, or had a break-in?

Marie Coyle @MarieCoyle (56876) 3 Apr

A friend texted me today. She lives in a suburb of Indianapolis. I've been to her home; it's a nice home in a nice neighborhood. But last night, she heard a noise and got up and heard a car screech away. The side window of her car...

Jeff Moffitt You went through a very harrowing experience being robbed the way you described! Just think of what could have happened to you locked in a cooler if the police hadn't arrived! My house was robbed once. It was a Friday, I was off from work. Around 10:30am I...

Egg Hunting

Juliaacv @Juliaacv (55432) • Canada 4 Apr

Good morning everyone. It has been a busy Easter weekend so far. We enjoyed a beautiful and warm day yesterday, which made it nearly perfect for the Easter egg hunt that we went to with our son and his family....

Jeff Moffitt I remember the very last egg hunt I did for my kids before they were "too old for that sort of thing." I got up early on Easter morning so I could hide the eggs outside in the yard before they woke up. But it was pouring rain, and we had bad thunderstorms that...

Do you ever get messages that make you wonder...?

April @thislittlepennyearns (67663) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 4 Apr

Every single one of us gets messages from people every day. Some are expected, some are welcome… and others, well—not so much. Today, I got one that definitely fell into that last category. Someone messaged me and basically told...

Jeff Moffitt Are you taking the medication as directed and prescribed by a doctor? If so, then it doesn't matter what the person said who messaged you.

Favorite Pet Ever

Amber @AmbiePam (116782) • United States 3 Apr

This is Frosty, and she my best friend’s favorite pet. Frosty (a girl) was a stray my best friend found a couple of years ago in a field with no one around. They estimate she is four now, and she’s quite an incredible dog. I loved...

Jeff Moffitt That's a great picture of Frosty's smile! My favorite pet of all time will always be my first cat, a stray kitten I found at my daycare and immediately fell in love with. When my mom came to pick me up from daycare, I refused to leave unless the kitten came...

April @thislittlepennyearns (67663) • Defuniak Springs, Florida 2 Apr

Today is my thirty sixth birthday. It seems wild to me that I am closer to forty than I am thirty but here we are. I haven’t done a whole lot yet today. I got to sleep in. I did some laundry and we have just been hanging...

Jeff Moffitt That is wonderful that you get extra time together! I don't really have any plans for this Easter weekend, which is unusual. I almost always have some kind of travel plans during the holiday.

A big mistake

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (50810) • Staten Island, New York 31 Mar

When I got married in 2016, I took on my husband‘s last name. That meant that I had to update my last name in different places. One of them was the Social Security card. I went to the Social Security office to update my last...

Jeff Moffitt That is odd indeed, but the system is not perfect. Sometimes it could be something as simple as an input error, or a glitch in the system, or someone putting a wrong code in. Mistakes happen. At least they didn't try to deport you!

Jeff Moffitt It's been so nice out the past week here in Florida that I didn't even bother paying attention to the weather, and here we had a mini cold front come through this weekend. Cloudy and cool and very windy. But then it gets nice again all next week.

Prices have gone up for my coffee

Lena Kovadlo @lovebuglena (50810) • Staten Island, New York 27 Mar

I have to start looking for instant coffee as I just opened my last 7 oz. jar of it. What I usually drink is Taster’s Choice, either French Roast or House Blend. If I am lucky enough to find it I get the Colombian one. I don’t...

Jeff Moffitt If I could have something free forever, for me it would be all-expenses paid access to Disney World in Orlando, Florida. And by all expenses paid I mean tickets, hotel, food and souvenirs. Although I am currently an annual pass holder, and go to Disney like...

I found someone with 'Pink' as a surname

Judy Evans @JudyEv (376614) • Rockingham, Australia 27 Mar

While trying to ensure that I wasn’t doubling up on my discussions, I came across a post from 2016 talking about a botanist named Olive Pink. Recently the topic of ‘surnames of colour’ came up but I think Pink was one of those...

Jeff Moffitt I worked with a guy years ago whose first name was Red. His last name was blue but spelled Bleu. Parents sometimes give their children some pretty crazy names.

Jeff Moffitt One of the things I don't like about Spring is the severity of the weather, as warmer southern weather collides with northern cooler weather. It always brings out the worst in the storms. The poor midwest always seems to get it the worst, but it also affects...

When is cornflour not cornflour?

Judy Evans @JudyEv (376614) • Rockingham, Australia 21 Mar

We have a packet of Nurses cornflour in our pantry but it says it’s made from wheat so what the heck? I decided to ask ChatGPT for its opinion. ChatGPT originally said that, in places like Australia, the UK, and New Zealand,...

Jeff Moffitt Very interesting. So in this case, it appears that "cornflour" has become part of the name of the brand, more so than the actual product. That can be very confusing, but that's why it's important to always read the labels and packaging!
