I've been having fun with my family the last couple of days because the basketball trades have been surprisingly wild. It's not that I love the NBA but my kids do and I'm always interested in what they're interested in. I was thinking this morning as I passed a truck with a forklift about how excited my kids would have been to see it when they were toddlers, and how I developed an interest in heavy machines back then. So times change but they also stay the same!

Just like 2023, my biggest shopping app earner in 2024 was Ibotta*, and right now they're offering a free $5 to new users. (That might be an ongoing offer, but they just promoted it so I'm not sure.)

If you're local and missed LAUSD's Choices application deadline, their late application is now open. You can apply to up to six programs, and if you apply to a program that's already full, you'll be added to the wait list. Depending on your goals, consider calling a school's magnet coordinator to ask the likelihood that you'll get called off the wait list. For more info about the Choices program, check out my other site, LAUSD Magnets.
The LA Times addresses whether your garden is safe if it was contaminated by ash from the fires.
The Kitchn explains how to tell if your container is microwave-safe.
This tote* is the first product I've fallen in love with on TikTok, and I'm so bummed that it's a "frequently returned" item. What do you think?
