Pro-tip for anyone who ever has trouble sleeping through their alarms. Sprinkle some herbs in your bed before going to sleep. Guaranteed to help you wake up on thyme.

We went on a 3 week vacation. We came back to intense stares of " WHERE THE HELL HAVE YOU BEEN?" from our two cats. Now, if we even move an inch towards the door, we need to explain why and that we will be back,
