Making a board for the first time!

Hi everyone! so i want to make a board for the first time but honestly, i suck at this. I’d like to use Raclette and cherry preserves, but im not sure what else to use! i’m trying to highlight locally made (or at least made somewhere in NW michigan) ingredients, like a few cured meats and other things. does anyone have some tips of what i should include? also, how much should i make for 20 people? please and thank you!

My dad had a drug addiction, but not the kind you’re thinking, and i’m genuinely concerned

so, my dad (56) has asthma, and other breathing related issues including sleep apnea and constant congestion. about 7-8 years ago he found what was supposed to be a temporary and quick solution to his congestion when it’s at its worse. Nasal decongestant spray. since then, it’s become a genuine addiction. he uses it at least every 30-60 minutes, and practically snorts it. he goes through bottles constantly and the most common stray trash in our house has become the lids to these little spray bottles. if he doesn’t take it, he says he can hardly breathe and it makes him extremely irritable on top of his existing short fuse. I just don’t know what to but my mom, sister, and i are all extremely concerned for his wellbeing. he keeps like 3 bottles in his work bag and always has one next to him when he’s doing computer work in the dining room or sitting in the living room. It started with Afrin, but now he mostly uses Vicks Sinex, and i can tell by the lids that he leaves everywhere. maybe it’s me overthinking this, but im worried it might genuinely start to harm his health, to the point where he might have permanent damage to his nose. has anyone else ever had any experiences with anything like this??? what can i do??

EDIT: Fixing some grammatical mistakes, i accidentally made a typo in the title, this addiction is actively ongoing, i meant to say Has, not Had

i’ve never been able to keep my room clean since i was a child. no judgement please

So as you guys read, I (18, 19 next month) have struggled with cleaning my room basically my entire life. ever since i was a kid i’ve had a super messy room, i’ve always just neglected it and never properly clean it. it’s gotten worse as i’ve aged, my room gets messier and messier, there’s moldy food and trash and clothes everywhere. I can never bring myself to do it for some reason, like i don’t have any motivation or drive to clean it. i’ve tried pretty much everything, tackling small bits, focusing on one thing, etc etc. i don’t know if maybe there’s something else i can do that will actually help, or maybe there’s an issue with me that i need to work out.
