I know there's some kids who just always liked pickles. My cousins were both pickle boys, though I very much was not.

This two year old not just has an insatiable appetite for cornichons, he wolfs down sauerkraut and asks for more while ignoring his perfectly good homemade burger.

I am perplexed. Vitamin deficiency?

(I still can't eat more than trace amounts of sauerkraut without gagging, and any vinegar was a no-go when I was pregnant. The jar is my husband's.)

My husband just ran out of floss.

Add that to the list of adulting achievements I haven't unlocked...

@aldeka joke's on 'im, today I'm in a hoodie and jeans and I didn't realize till I got to work that I forgot to put in earrings or any makeup oops

Manager: "K, this is [New Guy]. This is Karen, she's also on [Eng squad name]!"
New guy: "Hi, what do you do here?"
Me: "I'm an engineer."
New guy: "Oh, on what squad?"
Me: "[Eng squad name]."

(Here, everyone in an engineering squad is an engineer. Sooooo uh...)

Thinking today was not the day to wear a jumpsuit to work. (OR WAS IT???)

Feeling mildly star damaged.

The California rainy season is nearly over 😭
