    We moved into a foreclosure after my husband and I got married and I was pregnant. It was inexpensive enough (yay government grant to buy foreclosures). Technically you’re supposed to have a tub to sell a house in my state, but because it was a foreclosure, it was sold as is. So there’s a shower (1” ledge) wnd a handicapped rail in the shower and next to the toilet. Both have come in handy over the years. Helped me keep balanced when pregnant and helped the kids lean back to have their hair washed.

    She should have a cop (like Jacob) or a grump (like Derek) accompany her to gather her things from the apartment

    Callie had to protect herself. She couldn't let herself fall victim to a man ever again. She had been a wreck the first time and couldn't take care of her son if she went back to that dark place.

    Oh no! My dad broke his elbow a few years ago and it still isn’t great. If he’s carrying something in that hand, it’ll sometimes jerk violently. So he learned to stop carrying his coffee in that hand

    He let out a heavy sigh. "I fell and managed to both break my elbow and sprain my knee at the same time."

    Say*

    What could she even tell him? 'Hey, you don't have a dad because you were the product of a rape and I live in fear of him finding us'? That would be terrible.

    I think it was also partially his mother’s reassurances

    He treated Adam like he was a person even with his face. He had obviously been afraid of him before. Was it the toys? Did bribery work especially well on this kid? Adam would have to remember that.

    Candy corn is very unique. You can make a sort of trail mix where candy corn represents nougat. So candy corn + peanuts = Payday Candy corn + chocolate + caramel = Milky Way Candy corn + chocolate + caramel + peanuts = snickers You’re welcome

    My son loved candy corn until 1st grade. They were using candy corn as “counters” in math and doing a group activity with them. Everyone was touching them. They were going from group to group. So basically everyone in the class touched all of them. My son piped up and asked if they could eat them. The teacher said yes (but should have said no). He ate some. Got very ill, vomiting etc, and missed trick or treating. Noe he won’t eat it any more

    Callie shook her head in mock disapproval. "One of those, huh? Why does candy corn have to be so polarizing?"

    I’m very particular about mayo. I only like it on a BLT. Any other time 🤮. I don’t like ketchup unless it’s an ingredient in something where you can’t taste it.

    "Everything you've made so far has been delicious," Adam said seriously. "I can't think of anything I outright hate to eat that would make it into most dishes so I think you're fine."

    My husband’s is blue/yellow and his brother’s is green/purple. I’m partial to deep reds and purples , but I also like the deep pink/purple of my Japanese lily tree when it blooms

    She had never met a man who said their favorite color was anything other than blue or green. Orange was unexpected. She really shouldn't ask but…

    Amazon always has OPI polish on sale. Only one color at a time though so you gotta keep checking

    Cherry red specifically. There was this particular nail polish she wanted in that shade but it cost $13 so she could never justify the expense. That was ridiculous for a tiny bottle of nail polish.

    I think she will end up moving in with her boss to get out of there. Something has to be a catalyst, unfortunately

    I mean my deviled eggs are pretty tasty and I just cut the corner on a ziplock bag

    When I was a kid we would boil the eggs, dye the eggs, then hide the eggs. Several hours later we would find the eggs and crack them open and eat them. So yeah. Eggs that had been sitting outside in the heat for several hours. And we’d eat them.

    "Nonsense! Nothing is too pretty to eat. Deviled eggs taste better the prettier the eggs are anyway.

    Gotta be careful about not visiting your stuff my mom did that and she went to put something else in her unit and found a leak in the ceiling and I had completely ruined the sofa. She took pictures and since the office was closed she was going to email them. She forgot. She went back a month later and the leak was fixed but her couch was still ruined. Luckily she was able to file an insurance claim since she had take pictures!

    Stepping foot inside the storage unit was strange. Joy hadn't seen any of this stuff since she originally put it in here. She had been a completely different person when she last used this furniture. A normal, happy wife and mother.

    That’s the thing about not having anyone else…she is already like his family. And we learned from Stitch about family.

    Joy had thought that. He wasn't responsible for her. They may be best friends but she had expected him to move on with his life alone the way the others had and occasionally meet up. This was the last thing she thought would happen.

    I make a good potato soup. It’s always a hit. I hope he isn’t allergic to anything and doesn’t have any food avoidances

    "Potato soup," she replied without so much as looking up from what she was doing. "I already cleaned the entire apartment and did some grocery shopping while you were gone. What do you want me to do afterward?"
