        My 3 years old is able to finish his warm milk before that happens, and she’s not even a good eater. Do you need advice from her?

          Your 3yo got a sex change mid sentence. They grow up fast, enjoy time with them instead of using social media.

            Why are you talking about a stranger child’s sex? This is gender, not sex

        I don’t know if you have ever composted anything, but things do not biograde just by sitting on a shelf. The biograde in a compost pile

          I’ve used compostable bags and they absolutely did start breaking down before I got the chance to throw them into the bin.

            It’s like Russian Roulette when using them to pick up dog shit. Although I have to say they seem to have gotten a lot better lately. Either that or my dogs just shit a lot more and I go though them faster.
