What Are You Doing Right Now

@scottalanmiller Ha ha ha ha. Wow. Sad that they are banned here though.
-
Very sad. They are great chocolate and nearly every kid that I know just loves them. The toys are actually quite good. It's one of the best "cheap treats" you can get for young kids. They sell them anywhere candy is sold outside of the US. My kids look forward to leaving the US because they know that they will be for sale in the first international airport that we hit.
-
Plus... they can build their collection while outside of the US, lol... You should be ashamed of yourself for not teaching your daughter to preserve history, lol.
Edit: Even if they are just silly toys. 8-)
-
You can get other Kinder chocolate products in the US, like Kinder Buena, just not Sorpresa. Although because Sorpresa is the big one that drives the sales of the others, even the others are rare in the US and you have to work very hard to find someone that can get them.

Their collections are HUGE. The Sorpresa come in all kinds of styles too. There are generic ones, girl ones, boy ones and ones from different special series like "Disney" and other stuff. So they go to the store and have to figure out what Sorpresa style they want to get the surprise from.
-
Nice... Bring the toys back to the US and sell them... Teach your girls a little bit about running a business too, lol.
When they become the next teenage millionaires and need to hire people to eat chocolate, I'll volunteer my family for that arduous task!

This is a funny one. He demands RAID but doesn't want it called RAID, from what I can tell.

One of the world's most popular candies and most famous for being banned in the US:
Chocking hazard, right?
-
That's the claim. But the eggs inside are sealed and HUGE. There is no actual choking hazard. No other country has that issue. People often mock the US for having kids that could choke on that.
-
Or that the government thinks so little of the kids. It's thin chocolate shell on a huge toy. You can't put that in your mouth. I can't figure out any way to make it dangerous. And so many countries that are so much more protective of their kids don't see any concern.

The four year old has gotten up and asked for Mac and Cheese for breakfast.
-
@scottalanmiller That sounds like a reasonable request, lol.
-
Yup, it is on the stove now. It is Costa Rican mac and cheese, so I feel good about supporting Central American businesses and workers.

JW missionaries just came to my door. Can't pretend you are not home when you are open air to the street.

The bosses are out today. @Minion-Queen and @art_of_shred are both out of the office on business travel to Manhattan today. That means acting CEO @jenuinecase is running the show!!!

I'm marvelling at how much better Windows runs these days... Under WIndows XP and Windows 7, if my computer got over about 75% memory usage, everything would just come to a screeching halt...
Same Desktop that had Windows 7 on it... Running Windows 8.1... Using 92% of my memory and it still flies!

Movistar Van just went down the street pumping jams.

Most important phrase to know when living in Nicaragua: No gracias, no hoy.
You will use it twenty times a day even if you lock yourself up inside of your house.

Translation? No Thank you, I don't want any?

Thinking back to my highschool spanish, No thanks, not today?
