The Essentials:
√An absolutely FREEZING day with all-day rain (or snow if up north).
√A fire roaring in the den/library with Matt's and my loungers (ala Holmes-and-Watson style) right in front, dog beds beside fus or Kate and Pippa.
√Me, ensconced in said chair, bundled in a cozy blanket, with a book and hot coffee with Bailey's and whipped cream to sip.

P.S. I am so ready for winter. ❄️

JenlovesJT47 Unfortunately most chocolate is better than USA chocolate imo 😅 @TheBookHippie — I think the best one I ever tasted is one my sister brought me from France last year 🤤 5d

Ruthiella 😋😋😋 5d

AmyG Been there done that. 5d

AnnCrystal 👏🏼🐝👍🏼🍫😋🐝💝...I believe the difference is that US makes chocolate extra, extra sweet compared to Europeans. At least, this is what I've been told.

My ancestral world made a chocolate drink from cacao paste, water, and chili peppers. Sometimes spices and herbs like vanilla, allspice, cinnamon, and cayenne pepper were added (depending on tribe). This was drank cold. I really want to try this one day...I just haven't had the nerve. 5d

AnnCrystal You can try Sprouts or Worlds Market (are they still around ?? ). They should have worldwide options available.

Years ago, I tried real liquorice (the kind made from the root) from an Australian company. And my mom favorited these butter cookies from Norway. Both came from World's Market before we realized that is was eco-green to support locally made. 5d

AnnCrystal @dabbe Sprouts has dark chocolate mint filled, and maybe peanut butter too. I believe these are from Colorado?? Not sure.

🤔 I do believe I need to go make some chocolate cookies now...need chocolate, always need chocolate 😂🍫😋. 5d

dabbe @Amiable Ooh, adore those, too! Not sure if I could eat a whole bag in one sitting, though. Oh, who am I kidding; of course I could! 😂🤩😂 5d

dabbe @AnnCrystal I'll give Sprouts a try; thanks! 💛🤎🧡 5d

Leftcoastzen @TheBookHippie too sweet? Something they put in it ? 5d

TheBookHippie @Leftcoastzen just bland and way too many ingredients. Canadian kitkat tastes better with way less ingredients … 4d

Leftcoastzen @TheBookHippie US version of anything seems filled with chemical ingredients,probably for profit margins. (edited) 4d

For today‘s #threelistthursday, I listed 3 things I loved about school and then I wrote about my experience in school as an Autistic person and I was crying as I was writing about it. I had to keep stopping and wiping tears from my eyes because it was hard for me to write about it.

dabbe

TheBookHippie Good for you for blocking them they don‘t deserve your friendship. I‘m sorry school was so hard for you. I hated it too. Thank you for sharing your experience. That was quite brave of you. I loathe bullies. I had them too, it‘s awful. Sending you love. 6d

dabbe I thank you for sharing something so heartfelt about your school experiences, both good and bad. I want to punch that guy and girl for bullying you, but I know I don't need to. You're a strong woman who has made an incredible life for herself. I wish I could take away your pain, but all I can do is listen and support. I'm so glad you're here on Litsy and that you've made friends here. You are not alone. 💛🤎🧡 6d

AnnCrystal Whimsical to have had a guidance counselor named Mr. Rogers, how absolutely neat!!

Bullies delight in taunting and feel powerful when bullying. Blocking now protects you and denies them from feeding off your energies.

1) The school library. It was the place that I discovered some of my favourite books. Jane Eyre, Jacob Have I Loved, etc. it was also the place that I felt the safest @ school.

2) My three bookclub friends. It was the place where I met my longest friends, almost 30 years ago.

3) My English and socials/history classes. Also discovered some of my favourite books in those places. ⤵️

1. School was my safe space. I lived for Monday mornings.
2. As a teacher, making relationships. If I can get my fifth graders to laugh, I am victorious.
3. When a book I'm reading causes a reaction. Boom. Mic Drop. I love teaching ela and social studies.

@Roary47 I had my tp roll on my desk yesterday while I was putting my room in order. Thought of you.

Roary47 @Butterfinger 🤣 One of my students brought me Kleenex because of my toilet paper low resources hack. So I have some now! Have a great school year. 🥰💛 6d

#TLT #ThreeListThursday @dabbe

It's near school time! In my district, kids have been back at it for two weeks! Along that vein, today's #TLT question is to list/describe three things you loved about being in school. That could mean K-12, college, or now as a teacher or parent. You decide. Please tag me, so I can be sure to enjoy these! 😍 Tagging a few to get the ball rolling!

Suet624 I hate to be a brat about this, but I hated everything about school. I finished the 10th grade and ran away from home never to return home or to school. The only thing I got out of it were two of my best friends. 6d

dabbe @Suet624 You aren't bratty at all! Thank you for sharing something so heartfelt, and I'm so happy that you still have your two best friends. 💛🤎🧡 6d

Suet624 Thanks. 😊💕 6d

FashionableObserver I literally just freed my girls for the evening and the sigh I sighed…! 😅 7d

dabbe @FashionableObserver I can hear it all the way over here! 💛🤎🧡 7d

DebinHawaii I am waiting for my plane to get to the gate 😩 & then I have to drive home before the freedom happens! 😳😉🤣 7d

FashionableObserver @DebinHawaii Listen: the minute you get into your car, it‘s fair game. We all know how to take that torture device off without exposing anything. Free yourself before you drive away! Much like @dabbe heard my sigh, I‘m awake, waiting to hear yours!! 🤣 7d

Hooked_on_books I say we all band together in a pact to just quit wearing bras entirely. Those who really need them to support their poor backs can keep them on, but the rest of us who truly don‘t need them should just stop already! 7d

dabbe @DebinHawaii I'm with @FashionableObserver on this ... let those gals go the minute you get in your car! 💛🤎🧡 7d

JenlovesJT47 Nothing better than taking off your bra when you get home from wherever. Sometimes mine comes off in the car! 🫣 7d

We do not care that last night we needed socks to cover our toes that were as cold as ice cubes and today we hiked specifically to the waterfall so we could put those toes in ice cold water. First of all, manufactured cold is different from mother nature cold and secondly, it isn‘t necessary that you understand my choices.

#WDNCW

We do not care that our older sister has insisted that we need a bra for our upcoming niece's wedding. We don't care that she has measured us and gone bra shopping for us because we refused to. We HATE bras. We don't care if our boobs one day lie on the ground. They're happy being free, and so are we.
P.S. We will wear a bra to the wedding, but we won't be happy about it.

lil1inblue The last time I wore a real bra was for my sister's wedding. It was hot & horrible. I snuck in the bathroom and took it off during the reception. 😂 😂 😂 #freetheboobies 1w

TheBookHippie OMG 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 1w

kelli7990 I don‘t like bras either. I don‘t wear one when I‘m at home. I only wear one when I go outside and put snacks for the birds and squirrels in the front yard. One time when I didn‘t have one on, a guy in a truck drove by my house really slowly and stopped to look at me and I worried that he was looking at me because he saw that I wasn‘t wearing a bra but then after he decided he saw enough of me then he drove on by. 1w

dabbe @lil1inblue Good to know! I'll probably be doing the same! #freetheboobies (love that!) 💛🤎🧡 1w

TheBookHippie @dabbe I‘d take out small countries if I went braless but more power to you! 1w

Amiable She actually “measured” you?? OMG, I have a mental image of your sister chasing you down and wrestling you to the ground to wrap your chest with a measuring tape. 😄 (edited) 1w

dabbe @TheBookHippie 😂😍😂 1w

dabbe @Amiable You wouldn't be far off. One our sisters' vacay, she brought a tape measure “just in case“ and got me measured after I'd had a couple of cosmos. Seriously. 😂😍😂 1w

Amiable @dabbe 😂😂 1w

Eggbeater I refuse to wear one in the house or in my own backyard. They are torture devices invented by men. If my neighbors don't like it, they can look elsewhere! 1w

mcctrish I have recently gone on a big bra shop, ordering and trying on a bunch from many different stores. I have settled on 2 styles from Aerie that legit feel like I‘m wearing next to nothing - have basically no support but sort of corral things. It‘s a new day 1w

AnnCrystal 👸👏🏼😂👌🏼💝...🤣. 1w

dabbe @mcctrish #corralthoseboobies! 🧡🤎💛 1w

AprilMae The joys of working from home means there's maybe 1 day a week I have to wear a bra and 9/10 it's a sports bra or lounge bra so no underwire lol. That only happens for special occasions hahaha 1w

dabbe @AprilMae Yay for that! 💛🤎🧡 1w
