Things Facebook thinks I need.

.

Facebook is always trying to sell me something. And since it depends on algorithms to choose the items … I have to wonder why it thinks I need organic underwear.

.

.

A free range bra? That’s an oxymoron if ever I’ve heard one.

.

.

High impact? Exactly how much impact do they think my girls experience…

.

.

My car seats do not need a body guard. If I’m man enough to spill a drink while driving? They should just man up and take it.

.

.

Okay, they’ve got me here.

Those are adorable.

.

News you can’t use.

.

You might not be able to use it, but these things must be shared.

.

.

No, not the Walking Dead kind… just zombie viral genomes. They don’t have a tv show but are still pretty impressive.

.

.

That’s one bad ass prehistoric goldfish.

.

.

There’s an America’s Best Restroom contest. How did I not know this? What are the categories… most comfortable commode? Most elbow room in a stall? Most stylish tampon dispenser? I need to know!

.

.

Am I the only one who finds this disturbing?

.

.

I.

Can’t.

Even.

😳

.

Food porn and silliness.

.

There’s good news coming ‘round the bend.

.

.

It’s a raspberry type of thin mint without the mint. Sign me up!

.

.

We stopped into an uninteresting restaurant the other day because we were in an area we didn’t know. The atmosphere was lackluster, the meal uninspired… but the fresh seafood chowder with crab, shrimp and haddock? Perfection! I’d go back just for that.

.

.

And I have to admit the restroom sign made me grin.

.

.

I think that’s an advertising bridge too far.

.

.

Of course.

Because when I’m craving comfort food… kale, quinoa and soybean ice cream really hit the spot.

Not!

.

News you can’t use.

.

Or maybe you can. I’m not judging.

.

.

For someone who doesn’t drink coffee but lives on freshly brewed tea… this is beyond disturbing.

.

.

Another reason I live on the opposite end of the highway from this state.

.

.

No.

You have your Impossible Burger, you have your soy based cheese ….

.

.

For the love of all that’s holy keep your vegan hands off my seafood!

.

.

Well this was disturbing. I’d only been to one out of nine. I must be getting old…

.

Things Facebook thinks I need.

.

Facebook… in its infinite wisdom… has posted yet another list of ridiculous products it thinks I must buy, and this time? They’ve outdone themselves.

.

.

Do I need to remotely drive a pile of poo?

.

.

I most assuredly do not.

Am I ancient enough to require a ladder’s assistance to sit up in bed?

.

.

Not quite yet.

And while a recipe book of quick cook meals does have a certain appeal…

.

.

I doubt I need a potty mouthed granny to deliver them.

.

Twins?

.

For months we’ve had a nightly fox visitor for whom I lay out little piles of expensive dry dog food with taurine. ( It was recommended by a vet friend and is the closest I can get to the food U.K. Amazon refuses to ship to the United States) We love seeing him (her?) scoot across the lawn and settle in for a nosh. But last night?

.

.

I was seeing double.

.

.

Two beautiful foxes happily munching.

.

.

Brother and sister? Husband and wife? Friends with benefits? I don’t know…

.

.

But they’re both gorgeous!

.

.

💕💕💕

News you can’t use.

.

With menopause, bunions and a bad knee… I’m having enough trouble with 58. Screw 200.

.

.

I’ve flown out of Boston’s Logan airport many times. Three weeks doesn’t seem out of the realm of possibility.

.

.

I’m sorry, but that just bites.

.

.

Finally… a scientific formula for choosing vacation destinations.

.

.

I call foul.

I am neither loud nor boisterous, and am literally risk aversive. But Rome? I’m good with that. History, pasta and Limoncello sound like my kind of trip.

.

.

I love my state. We have a festival devoted to clams and award those who can shuck them the fastest.
