My family was staying at a hotel in the Netherlands, and on our last morning there my mom and I heard a woman let out a terrified scream as we were heading to our room. Knowing that nearby Amsterdam is a hub for sex trafficking, we ran to our room, called the front desk, and then…
Like a previous poster said, it is because Europe has stricter laws regarding food than we do in the states. If a product claims to be "orange" it must contain actual orange juice. That being said, I just travelled to Europe this summer, and although their version of Fanta tastes…
Also...brands or companies that are essentially the same, but different in the East vs the West. On my first visit to South Carolina I ran into Hardee's (Carl's Jr on the west coast) and ordered a "Famous Star". The cashier looked at me like I was from outer space, "You want what?!?!?"…

I grew up in California but now live in South Carolina. I was talking to my coworkers about how, as a part of our curriculum, all the schools in my area were required to learn to learn to square dance in 4th grade. Interestingly enough, they were required to learn to dance in 4th…

I have suffered from severe anxiety and PTSD for most of my life. I considered applying for a service dog, but decided to adopt instead. Porsha was rescued with a group of strays;.starved and terrified of humans, but thanks to amazing shelter volunteers Porsha began to trust, and…
Adding to the "we're all in this together" one...quarantining because of Covid. Don't get me wrong, I'm not complaining about having to quarantine, but it makes me cringe when celebs say, "Quarantine has been so hard! But if I can do it you can too!" Ummm...okay? Pretty sure most…
I do a lot of "weird" food combos...my faves are:
French fries inside of a bean burrito
Cream cheese and Cool Ranch Doritos
A wrap with chicken, lettuce, mac & cheese, and ranch dressing
One combo that did not turn out well: My 4 years old self hated both ham and lemon yogurt and…
