Well, first, we both want to wish you a very happy Valentine’s Day!  We love you guys and LOVE getting to spend our mornings with you every week.  THANK YOU for being YOU!

Happy FriYAY everyone!  I (Jeni) have to show you guys what I got!!  I’m so excited, and so in love… it’s too cute!  As you can see, it’s a coffee cozy!  It’s a knit coffee cozy from this Etsy shop that I stumbled upon on Instagram.  I saw this, and within 30 seconds, my order was placed 🙂  A Golden Girls handmade coffee cozy.  It doesn’t get much better than that! You guys know what a ridiculous hardcore GG fan I have always been, so this is perfect for me.  I actually ran out to grab a Starbucks about 10 minutes after it arrived, just so I could use it. 

I did get a Dunder Mifflin one, too, and I love that she lets you pick different colors! She specializes in cozies, hand sanitizer holders, planner accessories, and tons of fun Disney stuff, too.  Anything that has The Office and The Golden Girls handmade and unique stuff in it – you can totally count me in!

Check out her stuff – I promise you’ll fall in love with something, just like I did!

Shark fossils of Mammoth Cave National Park

A post shared by John-Paul Hodnett (@desertsabertooth) on

You guys know how much I (Sarah) like sharks.  I just think they are fascinating creatures.  So this bit of news excited me.  The skull of a shark that lived 330 million years ago was just found in Mammoth Cave National Park in Kentucky!  It’s actually a brand new record of sharks from the Mississippian period in that area, which is really exciting! They also found some of its cartilage and teeth.  CRAZY!

I don’t want to bore any non-paleontology or shark fans, so you can always read more about it HERE!

What’s your favorite species of animal?

Sparkling drinks are SO popular right now…. including sparkling alcohol beverages.  But this one caught my (Jeni) eye. It’s a sparkling coffee. Cafello is an espresso coffee soda.  It’s made with espresso, instead of cold brew, like some others – which makes it taste way more coffee-y!  Be on the lookout – this should be out any day now!  Read more HERE.

What’s your favorite sparkling drink?

 

The Suicide Squad is coming back for a sequel! They are filming right now, and it’s set to be released August 2021.  There’s apparently an entirely new team of super villains .  Apparently, everyone is freaking out about Harley Quinn having different hair for this one – red and black. You can see pics and a video of the filming HERE

Are you a DC Comics or Marvel fan?

I (Sarah) have always loved Monopoly, staying up all night and having a long, great, competitive game. Amazon recently released an Amazon exclusive version of Monopoly called Monopoly Longest Game Ever. I can’t wait to play it!

What’s your favorite board game?

Ohhhhhh yah.  Now this is what I (Jeni) am talking about!  This Chocolate Gift Set includes some seriously awesome sounding chocolates!  Each set has 8 bars in it.  These are the flavors:

  • Firecracker
  • Honeycomb
  • Baconluxious/Maple Bacon
  • Sprinkle Dreams
  • Potato Chip
  • Salted Chocolate Crunch
  • Spicy Maya
  • Sweet & Salty

Yes, PLEASE! 🙂

Are you more of a fruity candy or chocolate fan?

This is Belarus. He’s a sweet little cross-eyed rescue cat that has strabismus (causes pupils to point in different directions). And he has 250,000 Instagram followers because of his cuteness!!  The owner uses that social media fame to sell t-shirts & hoodies with his face on them, and donates 100% of the proceeds to animal rescues.  See his Instagram HERE.  Buy his merch HERE.

Have you ever rescued an animal?
