I saw two beautiful Bald Eagles this afternoon. I could see their nest a few trees over and it is massive! I love that these magnificent birds have made such a comeback in our area. I wish I had taken my camera with me, it was stunning. By the time we went back, they were gone. It isn't far from where we live so hopefully we will see them often.

There is a young bald eagle in our area I've seen him a few times flying over the pond looking for fish. He's still filling out so he doesn't look like the majestic bird you usually see. There are lots of them on the Connecticut River, they've made a huge comeback here too.

I love LMNT. Particularly the raspberry and citrus flavors.

We had a variety pack to start cuz we weren’t sure which ones we would like. I only had the unflavored (which was nasty) and the grapefruit. Maybe it’s cuz I’m an elderly grump now, but I enjoyed the grapefruit!

I actually thought they were $7

And I’d still pay it for the samoas or the Tagalongs. I can’t turn that down when my friends come calling

I'm not sure about the US but in Canada they had to change the recipe years ago, to take out the hydrogenated ingredients, they never tasted the same. We buy them though because it is such a great cause. Last year they were $6.00, maybe they will be going up here as well. I can't say no to those little faces!

Tagalongs are food of the gods.

Tagalogs, Samoas and Thin Mints. I bought 7 boxes from my cousin's daughter. Nothing like free shipping to suck you into buying more. They were $6 a box. Prices are different depending on where you live.

Samoas could have been the perfect cookie, until they went and ruined it by adding the coconut.....

Such a missed opportunity......kinda like that Bruins 2022 season.

Coconut is delicious and when you mix it with chocolate it is even better. I use it as a dairy replacement for greek yogurt. I also use the unsweetened flakes to make my own almond joy snack mix.

I'm not huge on coconut, but just a little hint of it on the top of the right desert is delightful.

I feel like people either love coconut or hate coconut.

I'm in the pro-coconut camp, personally. It's great in desserts, cookies, and love it as flavoring for seltzer water.

100% agree on the love/hate thing.

I'm in the latter camp. I think that people who hand out Mounds Bars for Halloween should be publicly flogged....:cool:
