Saw a couple of people post that husbands don’t need to get their wives anything because she’s not HIS mom. Let me be clear, if someone gives birth to YOUR child you owe them something for Mother’s Day for life. Thank you.

@Easeman_EWO @sullivanprofe @Mangan150 @gaborgurbacs I looked into this after spending six months in EU. We allow pesticides, additives, and preservatives that are illegal in Europe. Our food is toxic, it is making everyone sick. Also, their food is generally better and cheaper than ours.

I know a lot of librarians struggle to find a way to circulate puzzles. Just learned that a local library does a puzzle swap. Bring in puzzles to donate (or don’t) and take what you want. They have hundreds! Totally done on the honor system, and very low labor for staff 👍
