What made you happy today?

[BigBlueHen53]

My husband brought home Dove dark chocolate for me.
I ate two pieces and gave him one piece.

Oh I loooove dark chocolate! My DH keeps me supplied with Hershey's Sugar Free Special Dark Mini's!

I will be very happy to have maple syrup for my pancake breakfast.

Made pancakes, and found that there is mold in my maple syrup bottle frantically I google what to do with this? I want my maple syrup

Google AI overview:
You can generally save moldy real maple syrup by scraping off the mold, boiling the syrup to at least 180°F (82°C) to kill any remaining mold and spores, and then storing it in the refrigerator or recanning it into a sterilized .

I am concern about the word "Generally", can it be saved or not? Be definitive about it, generally is vague, I can get food poisoning.

Anyhow, I will make chocolate sauce instead.

NEVER trust the AI overview. I have seen many vague answers and some downright misinformation on those.

TWICE, I was in a hurry and didn't figure out something for myself and went with the AI answer. WOW, was it WAY OFF!!!

Shame on me for not doing the figuring myself. I just wanted the answer and didn't think. Or grab my calculator.

The day is young yet. Something will make me happier than my coffee and breakfast have done so far.

This probably won't make a lot of sense to some, but Pam Anderson going makeup free.

I wore heavy face makeup during a very impressionable part of my life (12-22), all because some stupid boyfriend told me I'd look better with it. It trashed my skin and my confidence. Wore makeup at my wedding, and then haven't since. Yeah, I don't look nearly as polished, and sometimes I have zits (whyyyyyyyyyy), but I'm glad to see more women embrace it. It's okay to look like yourself.

Now to find more women willing to buzz their hair off!

I was told that once, also. By someone I thought was a friend. Haven't spoken to her in decades. As for zits, they happen. Even when you are 43. I think I get more zits than my 14 yr old son, actually

Yes! I'm 42, and it feels ridiculous to have both acne and wrinkles.

Makes me think of the joke where guys will use the same soap to wash their hair, face, and butt, yet they always look fantastic.

I wear no makeup and have a buzzcut. I don't have the time or cares to give for all that nonsense (besides, I have the type of hair that mats if you even look at it funny. No thanks). Keeps life simple and saves money. I'd rather spend my time and money on other things like tea, gaming and of course the animals

I found one! Same for me. It's a lot of time and energy. Of course, some people enjoy that, so more power to them, but for me it became a chore that I'd dread. I'll grow my hair back once in a while, just for fun, but it never lasts more than a few months. Buzzing it off is so liberating!

I’m 48.
No makeup for me. Been off that for 15 years.
(I have worn a little on very special occasions like weddings. But very minimal and No eye makeup. Just concealer and lipstick/lipgloss.)

AND I stopped coloring my hair about 5 years ago. Healthier hair and not having to color every couple months. It’s naturally dark, so the gray looks silver.
