Gee, I wonder what made me think it wasn’t from Paypal?

I mean, if you received this in an email account that you don’t even use to access your Paypal account, you’d totally believe that it’s authentic, right?

PS: Phishers? You may want to take another look at your spelling of ‘there’. Just sayin’.

When you’re preparing food for someone’s first birthday party and tearing your hair out over how everything might fit in the fridge for the four hours previous to the party, a great way to make some extra room is to grab the carton of eggs.

The just-bought-yesterday-only-missing-two-thank-goodness-I-already-made-the-birthday-cake carton of eggs. This is especially great for making room if you grab said carton of eggs by the not quite shut lid/latch and all 10 of the remaining eggs fly out onto the kitchen floor, each cracking as they touch down, into a big sticky raw egg mess.

Ta-da! Instant room now available in the fridge.
