“….which is still a planet dammit…” My sentiments exactly. My obsessions with planets and dinosaurs helped me survive an abusive childhood. You can’t take Pluto from me.

Never. Pluto for life.

I LOVED JoJo Rabbit and would watch it again and again.

Sligo! That's near Lough Gill and Dromahair, which are landmarks in What the Wind Knows and where Amy Harmon's great-grandfather was born and raised. He emigrated to the US after getting involved with the local IRB and his parents sent him to America so he wouldn't get into trouble. I've pinned all those places and Sligo on Google maps to visit in July.

Thank you for starting my Friday off in an awesome way! I enjoyed homemade gingersnap cookies with you this morning.

What a weird parallel with Sligo! I love that. And I love that you start your Friday with us weirdos. :)

Thank you both … you lower my blood pressure. Honestly. I love this Friday break in the morning with my coffee.

Lady G, you have the brightest smile and spirit. You are so lovely. Lord G, you too and impish! I love how you laugh at things. There is such joy in you.

Thank you, both, again, so much. >hugs you both<

Making these is such a joy, and it's amazing people are liking them, truly. Agreed on ALL you said about Lady G!

I want to read more about Pluto, but the link goes to the Mt. Everest video! Apparently the universe wants to deny me my Pluto fix in more ways than one.

Excellent content as always. The banana eating part of the Napoleon Dynamite reunion video is wildly disturbing 😆

I felt the exact same way. I couldn't look away, but also wanted to barf.

I would definitely take a sourdough started from you two!! Lol! I hope you figure out how to mail it. 😊 Thank you for always being a bright light at the end of (sometimes) a long week! The Matchbook is such a fun thing to look forward to for the weekend!! New things to learn, look up, bake - all the things!! Cheers friends!

The wink intro had me dying. I’m hooked on how you transition into the intro.
