  1. The reason I no longer order from Misfits Markets or Imperfect Foods is because of FedEx. Damaged boxes and boxes 2 or 3 days late means disgusting produce, especially in the summer.
  2. You're right. I just don't want too but I feel I have an obligation. I guess I am afraid I could be wrong and start something that hurts innocent people.
  3. This is what I was thinking. It has literally just occurred to me today when I was typing this post that the place I worked did not have it's own Board of Directors. There was literally no one I could go do with my concerns. We were supposed to run everything through the manager - which was hard considering it was the manager I had a problem with.
  4. They are aware. They are actually audited every year. But only certain receipts are looked at (like 3 or 4 a year) so I would be surprise if the 3 I had issues with will even be flagged.
  5. Thank you for the link! My husband has said it is time I just tell someone about my concerns. The interesting thing is there is another subsidiary that was told by the auditors last year they needed an unrelated person in the office, so I was surprised when his wife was hired to work in the office. Right now I am still seeing things through my "I am still mad and upset" lens, but I honestly think it's what they wanted from the start. She pushed the office staff out so she could run the office. There are only about 5 year round employees, with several people hired for the summer. So a married couple makes up the bulk of the staff.
  6. I was hoping someone would have some insight or even a source I can go to. I tried googling it but the only info I could find has to do with married board members. Is it against any rules/ethics codes/etc for a married to couple to run the day to day operations of a non-for-profit? This is not a non-for-profit established by the couple. He was hired as the manager, their office staff left (they are difficult to work for) and the wife was then hired as the office manager. They are the only 2 with access to the credit card, cash, make the deposits, etc.
  7. You only need 2 switches but can use one game cartridge between both consoles.
  8. betterworldbooks.com I have only ordered a couple of workbooks from them and they were fine to use.
  9. Yes!! There are a handful of libraries around that country that allow anyone to get a card. It's amazing! I am a part of a large library system that only uses cloud library, and I do not like cloud library at all. Here are some https://www.aworldadventurebybook.com/blog/libraries-with-non-resident-borrowing-privileges
  10. I can't remember how much trouble it was but I do understand not wanting to mess with it! It seemed like it was several steps. I don't even use Libby, I usually just download any book I check out via Overdrive directly through Amazon.
  11. I have Libby on my Fire. It's been awhile but I think I side loaded Google Play first
  12. Some books are ePub only which means you can't read it on a Kindle. I don't think how many of the YA books are this way to be honest. I rarely come across a book that I must read on a tablet.
  13. My library system uses a platform that doesn't support Kindle e-readers so I have a membership to the Brooklyn New York public library. It's $50 a year and they utilize Overdrive. I used to have a card from Fairfax VA but switched to Brooklyn. I can't remember why I switched but I have been happy with both.
  14. I wanted a Smeg too, but I settled on this one: https://www.amazon.com/KitchenAid-KEK1222PT-1-25-Liter-Electric-Kettle/dp/B012WF88QS/ref=sr_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=kitchenaid+kettle&qid=1632954658&sr=8-1 I do wish it kept the water at a certain temp, but it just boils and then shuts off. I admit I bought it because I thought it was cute and goes with my kitchen!
  15. Total Wireless which uses Verizon lines (Verizon is the only cell service where we live). $100/month for 4 lines. Unlimited talk and text and unlimited data which throttles after 100 Gb. We never use the entire 100 gbs.
  16. Have you called the bank to see if a notary could meet you outside? I am pretty someone at my bank would do this.
  17. This. You can buy a car but may require saving up and paying for it in full.
  18. I just looked up the US versions of the El Paso packets and neither say "paprika and Capsicum" or "tomato and paprika" The article does not state this either so I am unsure of where you came to that conclusion. I believe those are the Australian versions. But either way El Paso isn't lying. The packets, as far as I can tell, do contain those ingredients. Anyway, I think I am overthinking this but I was curious about it! Fajita Seasoning Taco Seasoning
  19. Maybe I am misreading - but I see how the American version of Fajita seasoning and Taco seasoning contain what they claim. The Fajita seasoning ingredients contains "chili pepper" which would be the capsicum and "spice" which could include paprika. The Taco seasoning ingredients includes "spice" which could be paprika and "natural flavor" which I assume could be the tomato. Am I wrong?
  20. I avoid any US manufactured chemical sunscreen because I find they are irritating. There is a Japanese sunscreen I like but I can't think of the name -- Biore Aqua Rich?? I can't remember for sure! I am currently using the CeraVe tinted mineral. I like it but I don't love it, but I have only used it a few times. I do like the La-Roche Posay Anthelioss tinted and the unscented Purito Comfy Water Sunblock - these are both mineral and available on Amazon. I have heard some very positive reviews of the Drmtlgy tinted mineral sunscreen and I think I may try this.
  21. I recently discovered Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer https://www.vanicream.com/product/vanicream-daily-facial-moisturizer and I love it. I have oily, sensitive skin. AM CeraVe Hydrating Face Wash Vanicream Daily Facial Moisturizer Sunscreen (I can't find one I love. Today I used the CeraVe tinted mineral. I am sensitive to chemical sunscreens) PM Oil cleanser or cleansing balm (currently just using mineral oil but I love the Clinique Take the Day Off) CeraVe Foaming Face Wash Physicians Formula The Essence of Healthy Toner CosRx Ultimate Nourishing Rice Spa Overnight Mask - When I run out of this I think I may just use the Vanicream both day and night. I do like CeraVe PM, but I think my skin prefers the Vanicream. I don't use a dedicated eye cream, but in the winter I will use whatever I am using on my body under my eyes. I stick to fragrance free products so it may be Aveeno or Eucerin or even CeraVe from the tub. If my cheeks are extra dry I will also use on them as well.
  22. Bree Wolf writes clean historical romance. I have read of her books and I don't remember anything explicit.
  23. I think sweet romance is another term used for clean romance.
