The pandemic has had a big impact on many industries, but perhaps none as much as the restaurant business. It’s not just the restaurant owner that’s impacted when they’re forced to close their doors due to lockdowns.

Great gift for cat and coffee lovers
June 23rd, 2021 · No Comments · Amazon, Animal Causes
I had to do a double-take on this Etsy product called “Cat Coffee”–for a moment I thought it was talking about cat poop coffee, something I’ve heard about for a while but never quite dared to try (even if I could afford it). But no, these are just regular roasted coffee beans for sale that […]

June 4th, 2021 · No Comments · Amazon
Many ex-presidents have crossed the rubicon from being pilloried or ridiculed in the media to being respected elder statesmen.

June 2nd, 2021 · No Comments · Amazon, Cancer
All too often, a child will lose a beloved grandparent at far too early an age.

If you’re a parent, you’ve probably noticed that stuffed animals aren’t as special to your child these days as they were to you when you were their age. When we were kids, our parents could maybe afford one or two stuffed animals that we’d cherish throughout our childhood. But as manufacturing has gotten cheap, it […]

As we start to see the light at the end of the tunnel of the COVID-19 pandemic, it’s a good time to think of all those people since last March who have helped you.

Complete Miyazaki Film Collection – Studio Ghibli Blu-Ray Box Set: Get it with Amazon Smile
June 17th, 2015 · No Comments · Amazon
I realize that I should just send Disney my bank information and let them withdraw money from my account at will. They are one of those rare companies which you give money to and beg them to take more of it. Just this past month I’ve given them money to see Inside Out and Avengers: […]
