Been ages since I've seen this, but I've remember being devastated by it... I've read the book a couple of times, too, and it gets me every time.

I've never done the flu shot by itself, so we'll see. I usually get it with the COVID booster, but since I can't get that here in Florida, I just did this one.

In case anyone is interested, here are the maps I customized for each park.
GulfCoastJake (@gulfcoastjake.bsky.social) reply parent
It was great! I went through the parks app and made this spreadsheet that I then used to make the maps. They helped us make sure we got in what we really wanted to but left the day open to still be relaxed and spontaneous. I'm really glad we had them with us—it was all such a fun time!

I found this baking mold that was just the right size for 1-cup servings that are easy to heat up in a bowl or mug.

Until now, I didn't have a good way to freeze small portions, but I found a freezer/baking mold that was the perfect size.

Took me a while to find a mold that was the size and shape that I wanted, and then I didn't think ahead on how I was going to get the filled, floppy silicone mold into the freezer, haha!

First time freezing single servings of soup was a success! I have a habit of making "family sized" recipes for just the two of us and then getting tired of it by the time we finally finish it off. Now we can just grab one of these and pop it in the microwave whenever we want!
