➡I accidentally bought Balut eggs: 2 live ducks! Now a Chat Thread!

My parents retired near Harlingen TX , in the 1990s. I used to bring down insulated coveralls for my dad to go out in the boat fishing. He said the stuff for sale wasn't warm enough

See? That’s part of what I was meaning, like I doubt they have the super super warm stuff like they do here haha

What happened to think of the children?



She had a headache from it!?



I’d be concerned if she didn’t.

I laughed so much I cried and couldn't breathe.

You guys get a dark, terrible picture because I'm about 30 seconds away from falling asleep, but here you go. I'll monkey with the shading tomorrow but it's close enough for now. Also, blurred foliage can take a long walk off a short dock. I hate drawing it!

It’s Texas, not the Congo.

That’s true!

I guess I just always think of how hot it is in the summer and never thought about winter temps

Nah you can buy winter clothes anywhere.
But stuff like quality ski jackets or snow boots you usually have to go to a sports store, not Walmart or whatever.

Ah okay that makes sense. Think it’s similar here. Like you wouldn’t find quality stuff at Walmart although BJs (our wholesale club) has some pretty nice ones sometimes.

And I like LL Bean stuff.

Quality stuff is only at certain stores but they do sell at least some winter stuff in like every store up here

Hopefully you have since caught your breath

Tess - how's the boy?

Hmmm which one?

For some odd reason, I've been having a really hard time finding succulents lately. I bought a small cactus about 2 months ago.... I've managed to kill it already.

Me neither! I wasn’t going to get anymore after I accidentally loved my last three to death.
It was fate.

I keep getting those lovely ads for LL bean. It’s really working on me lol.
I so badly want a cozy sheepskin hoodie for no reason now.
