Rat's Nest Week 11

Enjoy!!!!

• Just three pals hanging out- I’m definitely late to this, but listening to a podcast on my morning & afternoon commutes has been ~so fun~. Comedy podcasts are my poison of choice because it feels like i’m just hanging out with some silly little rat friends. My award for Episode of the Week goes to Britney Broski on the So True podcast.

• Tough case of the Mondays?- Check out the Pet Gala- where a pet fashion designer recreated several Met Gala looks for dogs. A shih tzu dressed up as Chris Hemsworth? Count. Me. In.

• It’s getting hot in here- I have spent the last few weeks in the Devil’s living room (the south, because I live here), and no deodorant is strong enough for me. If you’re on the go and getting a little sticky and stinky, Pacifca underarm wipes are the best for a reset on the go.

🥰 if you dare me to I will

👀 tragic :-(

• Caitlin Clark got body checked (the video is BONKERS) by Sky player Chennedy Carter, and it wasn’t even considered a flagrant foul until AFTER the game. Draymond Green even entered the chat saying the Indiana Fever better “invest in an enforcer” for Caitlin.

• Groceries are gonna have a hot discount summer- sure, it’s not a HUGE cut or anything- but i’ll take what i can get.

• My beloved Poppi is getting sued for potentially misleading marketing claims. Apparently, to get any meaningful benefits you’d have to drink ~4 cans a day (which is definitely ridiculous). But come on- who was really drinking it for health benefits? Anyways, they can pry my Poppi out of my cold, dead hands.

• You probably aren’t eating enough fiber (according to this survey, only 12% of women and 4% of men are meeting the recommended daily fiber intake). I made a bean salad last week and it was SO GOOD and keeps for 5 days in the fridge. Recipe in the caption of below TikTok.

I could literally drink the dressing from this salad. It’s so rich and creamy. I also discovered a fun hack of mixing your dressings using... See more

• I left out the olives & pepperoncinis because I didn’t have them

• I only used about 70% of the dressing

• Highly recommend saying “eatin’ my beans” (southern accent) every time you eat it

HAVE A GREAT WEEK, RATS!!!
