You want something like this Ott light lamp. They’re awesome and help with eye strain and it’s a more natural light great for seeing colors.

OttLite Charge Up LED Desk Lamp with Wireless Qi Charging & USB Charging Port, with ClearSun LED Technology - Adjustable Neck, 3 Color Temperature Modes, Reduces Eyestrain - Travel-Friendly Task Lamp https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09YS7FWMP?ref_=cm_sw_r_apin_dp_50T1WYCJGG84Z1498VJD

Back to KitKats....Walmart makes knock off Snickers, Twix, KitKat, etc.

Some are actually pretty good, but the KitKats are .

I didn't even know Walmart made knock off candy bars

My favorite used to be butterfingers but the just don't taste as good either.

Apparently Sunday, April 30th is National Boba Tea Day. Who knew? Sounds like a good excuse for those who've never had it to give it a try.

boba tea sorry-it just reminds me of what a refrigerated container of post dated tapioca looks like........all that liquid with those pearly thing floating in it. i'll stick with regular tea.

i eat several things on a daily-weekly basis that top most people's ' ' list (eggplant, collard greens, brussel sprouts and beets anyone?). summer is one of my favorite times of year b/c dh will bbq us what many won't even consider trying (bison and curry wurst are a couple of favs-moose is SPECTACULAR but almost impossible to get). i will try anything once. i tried a boba tea once-not to my taste. i like my tea either hot/plain or iced/unsweetened with lemon (trader joes FINALLY got their brand back after over a 2 year absence-i now have 14 1 gallon bottles in my garage) . i like my tapioca as a pudding. if i want something the consistency of boba balls i'll take caviar or roe ANYTIME

Oh it's all in good fun

I do like boba, probably because it doesn't really taste like anything, but it just gives the mouth something fun while drinking a smoothie. I don't actually like Wawa's bubbles, because they're bigger than their straws. They pop in the straw, so comes through broken. Like why Wawa, why?

oh i know

i'm not much of a smoothie fan either. i like my veggies solid. i am SO happy we've finally gotten some decent weather so we can start using our big green egg. we do veggie kabobs of criminis, zucc, squash and bell peppers, grilled eggplant slices at least 3 nights a week to go along with whatever protean gets thrown on (lots of lamb).

Ooooh that sounds tasty! I want to unpack my grill and get that going for the season, but your use of veggie kabobs sounds like a fun add on! I'm usually cooking chicken or burgers for the kids, maybe some shrimp. Oh I now want to find a tuna filet for the grill!

i'm a big fan of using either flavored olive oils or salad dressings to marinade the veggies in.

I will be in Ireland next week and am planning to try my first Guinness. And, to reclaim my sense of adventure I will be drinking at least one beer two weeks later when we visit Germany.

Love everything in ur "most people don't like" list!! I am not sure how I would feel about the boba tea.....I like hot tea and cold tea BUT I am NOT a fan of my tea sweetened or flavored. I like my tea.....straight up!! As a kid, I always had sweet iced tea but in my teens, I transitioned to unsweetened tea to cut down on calories. Since going unsweetened, I can't stand it sweet. And....I am not a fan of instant or bottled tea. Growing up in SC, I am used to tea of all kinds brewed fresh from a bag. lol

Love that and for you as well!

I will definitely taste that, thanks for the suggestion. Our youngest son 20, requested we do the Guinness Academy Experience, so I'm sure I'll be tasting a few different types there.

Love that and for you as well!

Thank you, much appreciated!

Once you try Guinness in Ireland, it's SO hard to go back. I studied there for a few months and thought the country was beautiful. Enjoy! Let me know if you need any restaurant recommendations for Dublin.
