One of the greatest games of all time is now available on the Nintendo Switch (and Apple Arcade, if you don't have a Switch). And, it's also on sale for 33% off. What game is that? Why, Oregon Trail, of course. If it's been too many years since you've berated a fictitious character for giving others typhoid or failing to ford the river, it's the distraction you need.
It's fruit, it's frozen, it's sour candy and it's delicious. I found these Fruit Riot Sour Candy Grapes at Sprouts this weekend and they are so, so good. Again, they're actually frozen grapes (so that makes them healthier than Sour Patch Kids, right?) ... but they are also covered in what seems like Sour Patch sugar so they probably are not. Either way, definitely worth trying out.
I'm a huge New England Patriots fan so this recommendation may be a bit biased? But the new Apple TV+ documentary series, The Dynasty: New England Patriots has started off solidly in its first two episodes. The show goes back 20+ years to the Bledsoe era and brings us full circle to understand why Kraft and Belichick are currently at odds with each other. Two things that stood out in the first episodes: Belichick used to smile (he has young kids in some of the flashback footage!) and Tom Brady used to cheat at Tecmo Bowl. It's fun reliving some of the best football from my lifetime and seeing old favorites (McGinest, Bruschi, Law ...) back.
I was really excited about this recommendation, but I soon realized that The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf sadly only exists in a few states. I am still offering it up, though, in the event that you see a similar drink at your coffee shop of choice. If you happen to live in CBTL country, order the cookie butter latte. If you do not have a location near you, keep an eye out at other coffee shops. It's basically the Biscoff cookie in latte form.
