- There have been a few articles lately about the terrifying amount of deadly recycled plastic in black kitchen utensils, so we got rid of ours and replaced them with this gorgeous beige silicone set. Highly recommend.
- For ages the only copy I had of the 1989 Kon Kan hit “I Beg Your Pardon” was a cassette recording I captured from local FM radio, so any time I hear it I am reminded of Casey Kasem explaining how cool it was that they sampled the theme song from The Magnificent Seven.

I used to watch Temington Steele as a little kid (I thought my dad looked like him ????????) and for a brief while they showed episodes daily in the early 2000s. I had a pet rabbit that knew the intro music and every time he heard it he would zoom into the tv room and plop down in front of tv to watch with me. Cutest thing ever. Named my next bunny Remington Steele lol. #bringbackrs
