I live in a city with great public transport and for years Google maps was great for bus/tube times and walking routes. Now after 6 years of no probs Google maps has forgotten the bus stop right under my window and thinks I should walk up or down the road to the next stop. It has forgotten the crossings what are still there, no road works or anything, and thinks I should take 15 min detour instead of just crossing the street right then and there. It’s clearly going downhill here.

Depends on time and location? I think I saw an actual lemon, not a picture or flavour, in my teens? Whereas a variety of homemade pickles were just there

My friend is French, his wife Portuguese, they live in England with their two children. When all together, they all speak English with each other. When the kids are with one parent, the speak that language. In the park with father, French. Baking with mother, Portuguese. Bedtime stories are in the language of the parent reading. Kids switch between languages easily and understand what to speak with whom. Effortless trilingual.

Another friend moved country with her husband and had three kids. Home language was always mother tongue, both my friends had fairly bad English. Everything outside parents is in English for the kids - media, school, anyone outside the household. Again, the switch for the kids is really easy, they are fluent and have no accent in both languages.

Nacho awakens cute aggression in me. I want to smoosh those cheeks with my thumbs while babbling nonsense like: who’s the pretty boy, cutie pie, mwah-mwah-mwah!

I for one am very happy to have a daily Kitty in my feed. Please don’t stop

I googled Yanni and that’s what I got

Orr… take a nap together and wake up with that little head stuck in your mouth trying to find out where that rumbling sound is coming from. Will go on for months until that head is too big to fit in your mouth
