Yeah, I had a bunch of eggs that got cracked from a dropped carton or something. Made a couple of quiches and froze one. Still great when reheated later on.

They already are. My work benefits include a service where I can video chat with a NP any time and I don't have to wait as long for an appointment, which has been handy when I just need some quick advice or a prescription cream for my little ones. We have a family doctor and I love her but she typically books a few weeks out so I only make appointments with her for annual checkups and more serious talks that I can put off for a while.

The Super Bowl broadcast is notorious for drawing a large contingent of non-football fans who watch for the commercials and the half-time show.

Yeah, I watched this a few days ago and also came away thinking it was one of the better episodes I've seen.

Have a 9 month old and am also concerned. At least I am on maternity leave until September and so he's not in daycare yet.

I work in construction and when I was younger and single I did a couple years ago a remote work site; two weeks on and one week off rotations. We all stayed in the company provided camp while there. Definitely formed some strong friendships with my coworkers while there and made/saved a ton of money. It was an interesting experience.

I was a field engineer but jobs in the trades are always in high demand pretty much everywhere.

I make butter chicken from sometimes but if I'm doing a "too lazy to cook" version it's with jarred sauce and leftover rotisserie chicken.
