Settling in to watch ATTACK OF THE KILLER TOMATOES🍅💀 Campy horror comedies may not fix the world’s problems, but this one’s fixing the next 84 minutes of my life😌 #ScriptSky #FilmSky

😅I do prefer those! But I make Pop-Tarts for my spouse’s weekday breakfasts sometimes. He’s disabled, and I help him get to his job on time by making breakfast for him.

YES! And the flaming Pop-Tart was surprisingly hard to extinguish! We unplugged the toaster oven, yanked out the rack & kept slapping at the flames with the spatula. Finally, we got the fire out, but wow, slightly scary morning drama! Different note: The Flaming Pop-Tarts would be a rad band name🤘😎

POP-TART SAGA, EPISODE 2: In case you’ve ever wondered if a Pop-Tart could burst into flames in a toaster oven, the answer is… Yes. Yes, it can.🥴 When my spouse tried to plate his toasted Pop-Tart this morning, it slid off his spatula & fell onto the cooking element. 🔥🔥🔥RIP, Wild Berry.
The charred remains of a Wild Berry Pop-Tart lie on the bottom of a toaster oven.

Despite many shitstorms along the way, my spouse & I made it to 30 years of marriage, so we celebrated with a weekend in Chicago. We mostly lounged around but did a tiny bit of sightseeing. Two of the sights that resonated most with me (Chicago lampposts FTW!):

It’s a toaster oven. I used a spatula to plate the Pop-Tarts, but one of them had some crust broken off the edge, and the filling leaked out onto my fingertip. OWWW.😫 (Oh, and the Pop-Tarts weren’t even for me — I was making breakfast for my spouse.😬)

I got a 2nd-degree burn from Pop-Tart filling.🥴 How’s your Monday going?

Normally we never buy the Daisy brand of French onion dip, but it’s on sale at the supermarket across the street from our new apartment, so I bought a couple tubs Saturday night (1 for my spouse, 1 for me). We’ve already bought 2 more…🤤 (This may become a problem😆)

Well, hello again, friends… Haven’t been on social media much lately because my family has been busy moving from our ramshackle mobile home into an apartment. Our new place is 50 years old & nothing fancy, but it’s comfortable & sturdy & conveniently located. Spirit Halloween across the street!🎃

I typically don’t eat McDonald’s food, but right now, the FRIED apple pie is back, and it is 🔥 Every bit as delicious and craveworthy as I had remembered it… that crispy, crackly, bubbly crust is just 🤌 Too bad these little rectangular slices of heaven are back “for a limited time only”😭

PSA: If you leave a can of Reign energy drink in the back of an excessively cold fridge, the can might explode and make you think someone has shattered a window of your house by firing a couple gunshots through it🥴 The more you know…💁🏻‍♂️
