Day #5084 (Thu., Dec. 7, 2023) – Pocket Arcade Game
Both kids are home sick again today. We opened our Advent Calendars and Bobby got a $1 Roblox card while Katie got three chocolates. Daddy’s coffee flavor today was “Gingerbread Cookie”, and Katie guessed this choice and she was right! The dogs go crazy over whatever the flavor of the treats in their Advent Calendar is… I checked the ingredients and it looks like fresh chicken is it!
I stopped off at Walgreens when I was out this afternoon to pick up a “Cup o’ Joe” at Panera Bread. I picked him up this little arcade game for under $15 (see photo to the right). It was normally over $20, but with all the discounts and sales and such, I got it for much cheaper. The idea is that Bobby can play this in the van when he is complaining that his stomach is hurting or the “are we home” yet syndrome comes on… It requires only 3 AAA batteries and no internet, so with 220 games, what’s not to love? A great little something for under the tree this year!
My wife and Katie were going through the various books and such on the bookcases near the fireplace. We came across a number of cookbooks and decided to give them away. Who uses cookbooks anymore? You either look it up on Google or ask Alexa for the recipe these days.
