During quarantine a lot of people have been eating more. In fact, studies show that when a human eats their regular serving of food a day, then suddenly eat double that… You know what, I’m not gonna make you go through that. On with the embarrassing blog posts of my life.

Well first off, I’d like to share what has been on the Topliff Menu these past weeks. (Keep in mind that this is opposite week.) We have been eating spinach, artichokes, kale, all that good stuff.

You don’t believe me? Well see for yourself…

(Please note that the delectable image on the top is a fine example of the delicious peanut butter and apple appetizer.) Doc seems to wildly enjoy our menu. Speaking of Doc, here is the latest Doc update:

Also, a few nights ago, I heard what may have been the funniest Grace-as-a-baby-story ever. Even thinking about it makes me crack up. When I heard the story I actually CRIED, it was so funny!

It all started when I was on my small play structure (this was when I lived in California and loved to play on my small rinky dink plastic play structure. Small backstory: I went to a little preschool called Bright Beginnings, where they taught the basics for Spanish, and as a 2 or 3 year old I was okay at it. I remembered lots of small words in Spanish). So I was playing on my play structure and I kept saying ayúdame (eye-u-da-may) over and over and over again. My parents were inside and thought, awwwww, Grace has an imaginary friend named ayúdame, how cute. Then my parents came outside to see me play. But funny thing how ayúdame means help me in Spanish. My boot got stuck on the play structure and I couldn’t pull it free so I was using the word I had learned to call for help but they didn’t understand the call because they don’t come to preschool with me so none of them knew Spanish and didn’t come out to help poor little Grace with her “imaginary friend” named ayúdame. 🙁

But enough about me. It is time to say NO to everything because it is… say NO day!!!

(Now you may be wondering, says who? I can say yes if I want. Well, says Doc.)

HAPPY SAY NO DAY!!!!!!!!!

I am so sorry that we have to spent this joyous holiday in quarantine but I do hope you do something fun to celebrate this week. In fact, that is your homework for this week: do something fun, go on a walk, annoy your parents to death, watch a family show, annoy your parents to death, any of those fun things. I encourage you to try all of them.

Anyway. Quarantine has been tough. And sometimes you feel like this:

Or this:

Or even sometimes this:

Sometimes you even feel like all of them at the same time. (I’m talking about me.)

And though I am sad to end this post, I have to go. I really need to pack!

We’re going to Hawaii for vacation!

JUST KIDDING! I wish : ( See you next time.
