@AlPacina Only if you change Dora to Eureka's Castle and make the lunchables the deep dish pizza ones:

@eilis1228 @AlPacina - DEEP DISH PIZZA! I've never seen/had that one! 

I had the regular pizza one almost daily in high school (except for on Tuesdays because that was Dominos day aka double lunch for this pizza addict). 

eilis1228

@Swazzle They were the best! I ate them a lot in middle school/junior high. Mmmmm so good! They always had the best desserts too.

@eilis1228 - I think the ones I got only ever came with a mini Crunch bar which I did/do not love. That was the most disappointing part of it!

So over the past several months BF and I have had discussions about him moving in, and each time we've both agreed we would need to have an in-depth discussion about all the adulty things, like finances, timeline for special adult milestones, expectations, any concerns or worries, etc. We discussed even more this weekend and ultimately I suggested summer. He's going to ask his roommate how much notice he needs and we've decided to have a sit-down to talk other things through in person this week. 

My current mood is a combination of nerves and excitement. I feel like I proposed. hahaha. It's a big ol' step for us.

So, yay. That's how my day is going.

@eilis1228 Lunchables pizzas were the shit! Something about that slightly cardboard-y crust was magical. 

AlPacina

@eilis1228 - Yea, I've been known to be preparing for a stoner's night in and bring one of those home with me, haha! The sauce is so great!

@wink0erin - That's so exciting! Have you lived with a BF before?!?

@Swazzle Ew, Crunch bars. I mean, they're OK... if you really need a chocolate fix. I'm pretty sure the deep dish pizzas came with Reese's. They were epic. I hope they still exist in all their unhealthy glory. 

@AlPacina The deep dish ones still exist???? This is amazing. 

@wink0erin How exciting! I'm so glad you guys are on the same page and moving onto the next step in your relationship. I think you two should celebrate!

labro

@wink0erin Omg that is so exciting for both of you!!

@eilis1228 - I just searched at my Wegmans and they have this in addition to the regular ones:



CHEEZ-ITS AND FRUIT ROLL UPS. PLEASE YES PLEASE.

AlPacina

@eilis1228 - Heck yes they still exist! Throw one in your cart next time! And then just walk down the aisle going "I'm babysitting. This is for a child. It's not for me."

And TBH, I don't like Dora and have no idea what Eureka's Castle is, haha. But I did see Lazy Town dubbed in Spanish the other day and it was HILARIOUS.

Anyone who's still around and does meal prep services: H and I are thinking about signing up for one. He would be doing the cooking on these (and is ... let's say unconfident in the kitchen), I would be doing the cooking other nights. He's kind of meat-and-potatoes, I'm more adventurous. We're down to BlueApron or HomeChef - sell me on your plan!

@AlPacina - It was on Nickelodeon. I actually just looked to see when it was on ('89-'95) and discovered it was written by R.L. Stine! Never knew that. @eilis1228 did you?

AlPacina

@KeptInStitches - On the positive end, I can tell you is that this week from Blue Apron, I am making:

The downside is that chopping all the veggies tends to take a while. But I definitely save money, and I typically LOVE at least 2/3 dishes, and rarely dislike any. It's not as easy to choose meals as some other services, if either of you are picky eaters.

@AlPacina Eureka's Castle was my favorite show as a kid! Lazy Town in Spanish?! OMG! 

@Swazzle @AlPacina I feel so cheated that I had to deal with crappy sides and desserts in lunchables, and now they have Cheez Its and fruit roll ups! 

ETA: @Swazzle I thought it was Jim Henson since it was puppets! Never knew it was RL Stine! That's pretty cool.

@swazzle - Oh thank God. I was 0-6 years old. It must be just before when I started watching TV.

I was going to be so mad that I didn't recognize a Nickelodeon show!

Swazzle

@AlPacina - I forgot you're just a bebe! 

wink0erin

@Alpacina Yes I have. It was a big ol' learning experience! For a while I beat myself up over it, but looking back I'm glad I made that mistake because it taught me a LOT about what is and isn't ok in a relationship!


Also, Eureka's Castle was awesome. I loved Batly.

@wink0erin that's awesome news!
