Poor (wo)Man's Cheesecake

Cheesecake is my absolute favorite thing to eat, but its pretty expensive as a poor person and time consuming to make as someone working a lot of hours. so i found a way that i can afford to easily satisfy that craving as a snack anytime!

Mash up some cream cheese, powdered sugar, and a bit of vanilla flavoring in a bowl and spread it on a graham cracker- and enjoy! My kids like to add some strawberry jelly on top, but I like the taste of them plain.

It comes out to around $17 for everything pictured and can last a long time, that is if you have self control 😆 (the sugar and flavoring comes in handy for many other recipes as well)

Has your chi ever "sleep-howled" ?

A few nights ago we were curled up together in bed, quiet t.v. noise in the background. Ziggy was snoring curled up between my legs and i was half awake. suddenly he sat straight up and let out a long, eyes still closed "awooooo" like he was a wolf howling at the moon. It woke me up really fast cause i never heard him make that sound before! I woke up and was like, "Ziggy, what's wrong?" He immediately seemed to "wake up," looked super embarrassed and started fawning for cuddles.

Random PSA: a box of Little Debbies in the USA almost always comes with a free DIY postcard that you can cut out :)

It obviously is not meant specifically to be a postcard, in case my title confuses anyone- but it is the perfect size and they happen to use the smooth white variety of cardboard which is very easy to write on. I think they are pretty cute for food packaging.

Postcard United glitching out- i am receiving many undeserved postcards

When i first got into postcarding I signed up with both Postcrossing and PostcardUnited and enthusiastically participated with both for about a year. After that I decided that I liked Postcrossing better and since i had gotten my "available to send" number up pretty high on there i decided to phase out of PU. So I stopped requesting addresses there. (The 3 i have "travelling" are all expired)

This was at least six months ago and I have still not stopped receiving PU cards. I keep thinking they are postcrossing cards and then I see the three letters and have to go log back in to PU to register them. Lol im not complaining, I love all the cards! But I feel kind of... guilty? As you can see i am up to 78 received and I only ever sent out 65.

Do you think i should report this to the website?

Feeling proud of my happy little Pothos :)

She was just a little sprout when my mom gave her to me, growing a new leaf almost every day it seems. Any suggestions for improving her setup are welcome. I know she will probably need to graduate to a bigger support system soon.

PSA: Sometimes "ad cards" can be pretty freakin cool!

Sent to someone who said they like cards that are a "bit weird" lol and they loved it!
