<v Speaker 1>Jar you, Katy and Josh one hundred.

<v Speaker 2>I actually had to head out out of town. I

<v Speaker 2>was in the car Friday morning heading to beautiful Grand Island, Nebraska.

<v Speaker 2>Don't be jealous. It didn't be jealous. Yeah, So let's

<v Speaker 2>see round trip this weekend. I mean zipping out there

<v Speaker 2>and zipping back. We did about twelve hours ish on

<v Speaker 2>the road, about eight hundred miles. Went out to Grand

<v Speaker 2>Island for a graduation for one of my cousins. And

<v Speaker 2>we were just due to get out there anyway and

<v Speaker 2>visit some family had a little mini family reunion out there.

<v Speaker 2>And I'm gonna tell you right now, I know we're

<v Speaker 2>joking about in the middle of nowhere Nebraska. I enjoyed

<v Speaker 2>the hell out of it, did you. It's just a

<v Speaker 2>simpler lifestyle out there, so simple.

<v Speaker 1>No one can get a hold of you. I'm sure

<v Speaker 1>that was a big draw for you.

<v Speaker 2>Like, there were many parts that we were in that

<v Speaker 2>I had zero cell service, zero internet. We had this

<v Speaker 2>graduation party out in the middle of the nowhere, like

<v Speaker 2>at a barn. It's like a barn event cent and

<v Speaker 2>no signal. I was like, this is awesome, and it

<v Speaker 2>was too bad because I was trying to send Katie

<v Speaker 2>pictures and videos of the world's largest charcooterie board, and

<v Speaker 2>it would not go through.

<v Speaker 3>I know.

<v Speaker 2>I was able to zip a text through it said

<v Speaker 2>pictures of this charcootery board coming up soon. You're like,

<v Speaker 2>where they at?

<v Speaker 1>I know, So I'm still waiting for these charcoteri board pictures.

<v Speaker 2>The first first is it charcoterie board or I hear

<v Speaker 2>it called chark hooterie board? I say charcooter I'm a

<v Speaker 2>goofy white boy, So it's a charcooterie board. But I

<v Speaker 2>kid you not. They had it on an eight foot table.

<v Speaker 2>I believe it was an eight foot table. Yeah, from

<v Speaker 2>the start of the table to the end of the table,

<v Speaker 2>nothing but charcooteries.

<v Speaker 1>Well, when you sent me multiple videos of vantage points, like,

<v Speaker 1>I was like, this is a big old charcootery board.

<v Speaker 2>I did the thing. I'm gonna post the video. I

<v Speaker 2>started at one in filming it and just worked my

<v Speaker 2>way all the way down.

<v Speaker 3>Like a drone shot.

<v Speaker 2>Yes, of meats and cheeses and various nibleys. I'm gonna

<v Speaker 2>tell you epic. I mean, it was a beautiful thing,

<v Speaker 2>wasn't it.

<v Speaker 1>It was.

<v Speaker 2>I'm a fan. I'm like a I'm like a thirty

<v Speaker 2>year old woman who just when I see a charcootery board.

<v Speaker 3>I'm like, oh my god, lady olives.

<v Speaker 2>I had so many olives and little flammies and pepperonis

<v Speaker 2>and purple little cheese. Is that fudge?

<v Speaker 3>Is that a little pile of fudge? I do?

<v Speaker 2>I turned into a thirty year old woman, like, let

<v Speaker 2>me put my purse down and take it.

<v Speaker 3>You see that made it look like a flower?

<v Speaker 1>What?

<v Speaker 2>Okay? So reed my son went up and he was

<v Speaker 2>taking all the garnish back, like they had like kiwis

<v Speaker 2>and stuff that were cut to look like flowers and

<v Speaker 2>all this thing. He would come back to the table

<v Speaker 2>with like the garnish on his plate. I'm like, I

<v Speaker 2>mean it's there for the taken, I guess. But I

<v Speaker 2>was like, buddy, you go for the meat and cheeses. Yeah,

<v Speaker 2>you don't go for the kiwi garnish. He's new at

<v Speaker 2>the charcooter, not charcoos, right. But anyway, what a great

<v Speaker 2>side hustle that would be.

<v Speaker 1>You know, we were talking about that, how that would

<v Speaker 1>be fun and also cost effective and a nice little

<v Speaker 1>gig that would probably keep you busy.

<v Speaker 3>People like their chartcoutery.

<v Speaker 2>It's isn't it just nutty? Like when you see that?

<v Speaker 2>And it doesn't have to be an eight foot one.

<v Speaker 2>But if you roll into a friend's party birthday party

<v Speaker 2>and they got one on the counter, like, hell's the a,

<v Speaker 2>it's gonna be a good night tonight. Absolutely a little

<v Speaker 2>sliced American cheese and some ritz crackers there. Life is good.

<v Speaker 2>So anyway, we did that this weekend, and then I

<v Speaker 2>was saying before the break that, yeah, Nicole had kind

<v Speaker 2>of a bad mother's day because we were in the

<v Speaker 2>car essentially driving back six hours through Nebraska and stopping

<v Speaker 2>at Oglala and all that. So that was her mother's Day.

<v Speaker 2>And when we got back, I was like, I'm tired,

<v Speaker 2>and I gota we actually I work to do, so

<v Speaker 2>it's like I gotta do work, and so well, she'll

<v Speaker 2>get her gifts today.

<v Speaker 3>Did she get like her favorite car snacks at least

<v Speaker 3>for the ride?

<v Speaker 2>Like she made a peanut butter sandwich before we left,

<v Speaker 2>so yeah, she had a peanut butter SAMMI site note

<v Speaker 2>those pretzels that you got me so good? What are

<v Speaker 2>they called? Uh dots? The dots pretzels? I ate a

<v Speaker 2>Sam's Club bag size of the dots pretzels out to Nebraska.

<v Speaker 2>We had to run into a Walmart. I bought another

<v Speaker 2>bag that were the Buffalo flavor. Oh eat those all

<v Speaker 2>the way back. So I am so full of pretzels,

<v Speaker 2>the Buffalo ones. I got a little kick. Yeah, you

<v Speaker 2>don't want to eat a bag of them and wipe

<v Speaker 2>your eye while you're on the open road. I will

<v Speaker 2>tell you that much. Right now, we have wet wipes

<v Speaker 2>in the car, wet wipes.

<v Speaker 3>It's in my eye.

<v Speaker 2>It's in my eye. How is your mother's day?

<v Speaker 1>Though? Everything goes smooth good, It was so good we

<v Speaker 1>actually started it. I have driven by this area of

<v Speaker 1>ben Thornton people who are familiar No.

<v Speaker 3>Eighty eighth than Dahlia area. There's a little.

<v Speaker 1>Road right there that this looks like any normal road,

<v Speaker 1>but on it there's an animal sanctuary. So shout out

<v Speaker 1>to Broken Shovel Animal Sanctuary. An entire farm full of animals.

<v Speaker 3>There.

<v Speaker 1>They had a Mother's Day brunch along with an animal cuddling.

<v Speaker 3>Session, that's what they called it. And there are so

<v Speaker 3>many farm animals.

<v Speaker 1>I mean we're talking pigs, chickens, goats, cows, little mini

<v Speaker 1>horses and donkeys.

<v Speaker 2>All delicious on a charcootery board, they.

<v Speaker 3>Had water buffalo. What what seeing a water buffalo?

<v Speaker 1>And they told us, as we're going into this water

<v Speaker 1>or this animal sanctuary, they're like, hey with.

<v Speaker 3>The big livestock, the big ones like the water buffalo.

<v Speaker 3>And they immediately got my attention.

<v Speaker 1>I was like, wait, you got water buffalo up in here,

<v Speaker 1>Like I'm so excited.

<v Speaker 2>I believe it when I see it.

<v Speaker 1>They told us we had to pet them over the

<v Speaker 1>fence and not in between the slats of the fence.

<v Speaker 3>We're gonna in between the slats of the fence.

<v Speaker 1>They see food for the top, they know you're gonna

<v Speaker 1>pet them.

<v Speaker 3>And again, these are all domesticated water buffalo. I had

<v Speaker 3>no idea this was like that.

<v Speaker 2>I've never heard of that, okay, And first of all,

<v Speaker 2>like who on their mother's day is like you know what,

<v Speaker 2>I gotta go pet a water buffalo today? This is

<v Speaker 2>my day? Me was that the video you were showing

<v Speaker 2>me the thing eating your hair?

<v Speaker 3>That was the water blow up in my hair. It

<v Speaker 3>was so crazy.

<v Speaker 1>So its name was Nesa, and I rolled up to

<v Speaker 1>it and I was just like because all the other

<v Speaker 1>water buffalo were fighting for attention, but little Nesa right

<v Speaker 1>here was just hanging out. I was like, you are

<v Speaker 1>so cute and you are exactly the reason I came

<v Speaker 1>here today.

<v Speaker 3>And then he started to just come up to me

<v Speaker 3>and I was like, oh my god, this is amazing.

<v Speaker 1>So I turned around to take a selfie with little

<v Speaker 1>Nessa because that's what you do, and he started eating

<v Speaker 1>my hair and I thought it was the cutest thing.

<v Speaker 3>I'm like, oh my god, can get him nibbling my hair?

<v Speaker 2>Most action you've had in a while.

<v Speaker 1>The lady who was Nessa's little tender, like you know,

<v Speaker 1>little handler, She was like, wait at you see the

<v Speaker 1>slobbery he got in your hair And I was like,

<v Speaker 1>oh no, I just straightened it.

<v Speaker 2>And most action you've had it alone time.

<v Speaker 1>It was so but so worth it. I mean, not

<v Speaker 1>only did we get to pet all these animals. So

<v Speaker 1>I was sitting there just like literally petting the belly

<v Speaker 1>of a page get Later on we went to Chubby

<v Speaker 1>Sugi and I got to eat the belly of a pig.

<v Speaker 2>It's the circle of life, is what that is. It

<v Speaker 2>is a circle. It was the pigs name.

<v Speaker 3>Oh I don't know the pig's name. I actually know

<v Speaker 3>they did pigs named Kevin Bacon. Was Kevin Bacon?

<v Speaker 2>You kind of have to, I have to show you the.

<v Speaker 1>Oh so cute, but it's and then it's like funny

<v Speaker 1>because they had again domesticated animals in the beginning, so

<v Speaker 1>you had the goats and the lama and everything, and

<v Speaker 1>then in the back were like the crazy goats who

<v Speaker 1>weren't used to people yet, so they were running amok.

<v Speaker 1>I just thought they were excited to see me. I'm like,

<v Speaker 1>look at that goat. Go and they're like, no, they're

<v Speaker 1>running from you. They're terrified of.

<v Speaker 2>Crazy lad with wet hair.

<v Speaker 3>So it's fun.

<v Speaker 2>If you missed it. I was at this event in

<v Speaker 2>Nebraska with this charcouterie board and I said it was

<v Speaker 2>eight foot. I've been corrected. It was sixteen feet. I mean,

<v Speaker 2>that's that's correction. And of course it was a woman

<v Speaker 2>that well she would know. And then thank you to

<v Speaker 2>all the women writing in with the pronunciation. I guess

<v Speaker 2>it's a shark HOOTERI board is okay, instead of a

<v Speaker 2>charcootery board.

<v Speaker 3>I've been saying it wrong too.

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, you're the experts. I know, chariot idiot.

<v Speaker 3>You listen shark.

<v Speaker 2>Anyway, Katie went to a petting zoo.

<v Speaker 1>I did go to the petting zoo and I had

<v Speaker 1>so much fun. And then we went to chubby food

<v Speaker 1>chubby fish sushi. After that I got to eat all

<v Speaker 1>the animals and just petted. So it was it was

<v Speaker 1>full circle. But it's funny because what sticks out to

<v Speaker 1>me the most is the present that Zoe gave me

<v Speaker 1>for Mother's Day, my little baby Nana. Every year she

<v Speaker 1>gives me an orchid plant because she knows how much.

<v Speaker 3>I love them.

<v Speaker 1>I think they're the prettiest plant, the prettiest symbols.

<v Speaker 2>Anything happened with the orchid, or it's just your favorite,

<v Speaker 2>it's just my favorite.

<v Speaker 3>I like the way they look.

<v Speaker 1>I just like they're They're the hardest plant to take

<v Speaker 1>care of, too, so I feel like really needy.

<v Speaker 3>It's just something to be said. Well, because they require

<v Speaker 3>a certain amount of light.

<v Speaker 2>You have to but not direct sunlight. They like indirect sunlight.

<v Speaker 2>You like watering, but can't overwater over water.

<v Speaker 3>It's like every plant, well no, but like they're a lot.

<v Speaker 2>They're very needy.

<v Speaker 3>They're very needy, and.

<v Speaker 1>They're very particular. So if you don't do things right,

<v Speaker 1>they will just flat out die. And she knows this,

<v Speaker 1>and she also knows that I kill airplants. But yet

<v Speaker 1>every year on Mother's Day she gets me an orchid

<v Speaker 1>because she knows how much I like it.

<v Speaker 3>But she knows I'm about to kill this place.

<v Speaker 2>How many orchids from the past do you still have?

<v Speaker 3>How old is she? So?

<v Speaker 2>Do you have any?

<v Speaker 1>No?

<v Speaker 2>So every year she just gives you a plant to get.

<v Speaker 1>She's given me a plant every year for like the

<v Speaker 1>last ten or eleven years, because right, she's wanted.

<v Speaker 2>To Yeah, you have none of them?

<v Speaker 3>None of them?

<v Speaker 2>Why did you keep doing this so much?

<v Speaker 3>I love them?

<v Speaker 1>She knows how much I love the orchids. And every

<v Speaker 1>here's the thing she tries. Along with each plant, she

<v Speaker 1>gives me the step by step instruction on how to

<v Speaker 1>take care of it, because this one particular. Right the

<v Speaker 1>last time she gave me an orchid, it was take

<v Speaker 1>an ice cube and put it in between its leaves

<v Speaker 1>every Sunday. Every Sunday, you take one ice cube and

<v Speaker 1>you put it in the leaves water and it's supposed

<v Speaker 1>to slowly melt. And I did that, but my orchid

<v Speaker 1>did not like me. So it just died anyway. So

<v Speaker 1>you feel like that would freeze it off wherever you

<v Speaker 1>place the ice cube.

<v Speaker 3>I would think so too. But these were the directions

<v Speaker 3>she gave me.

<v Speaker 1>These are the directions I followed, and I still killed

<v Speaker 1>the plant.

<v Speaker 3>This new plant has different instructions.

<v Speaker 1>Every Sunday, I'm supposed to take it and fill the

<v Speaker 1>container that it came in in water, so it is

<v Speaker 1>submerged in water, and then I let it stay submerged

<v Speaker 1>for five minutes. Then I take it out. I dumped

<v Speaker 1>the water. I put it back in there. It's good

<v Speaker 1>for a week, and every Sunday I'm supposed to do that.

<v Speaker 1>So she just gave it to me yesterday. I'm supposed

<v Speaker 1>to do it this upcoming Sunday, so I will let

<v Speaker 1>you know.

<v Speaker 3>But again my track record is I have killed eleven

<v Speaker 3>orchid plants probably everything.

<v Speaker 2>What is remembering then on Sunday to do this. I

<v Speaker 2>know you can sell a little Do you have another

<v Speaker 2>like an Alexa.

<v Speaker 3>Or anything at home? I could do it.

<v Speaker 2>You got to say, give me a reminder every Sunday

<v Speaker 2>at six pm.

<v Speaker 1>I have reminders for other things. It's not that I

<v Speaker 1>won't do it, it's just I don't think.

<v Speaker 2>Like you know, we can do too. It's be like, hey, Alexa,

<v Speaker 2>set a reminder for in two weeks, Yeah, to throw

<v Speaker 2>away my.

<v Speaker 1>Organ I know I'm gonna have to, because that's the

<v Speaker 1>thing is, I will do it.

<v Speaker 3>I just think there's the the loviness. You're also supposed

<v Speaker 3>to give a plant.

<v Speaker 1>You're supposed to talk to them, You're supposed to treat

<v Speaker 1>them like they're a human like because they are a

<v Speaker 1>living thing.

<v Speaker 3>So I think that's kind of where I.

<v Speaker 2>Should give you anything else.

<v Speaker 3>She gave me a necklace. She can't kill that, no, exactly.

<v Speaker 1>She gives me other nice things that you know she

<v Speaker 1>but she tries every year to get me to be

<v Speaker 1>a responsible plant mom, and I'm not like I try

<v Speaker 1>to remind her. Like you remember, I was the napkin

<v Speaker 1>mom in school, Like, I don't know why you're trying

<v Speaker 1>to get a napkin mom is the mom who when

<v Speaker 1>you like, are on field trips and whatnot. You are

<v Speaker 1>the person in charge of the napkins because you can't

<v Speaker 1>be trusted with anything else because there's the napkin mom.

<v Speaker 1>And then the other one's called the laminate mom. So

<v Speaker 1>you're the one who's in charge of the itinerary and

<v Speaker 1>laminating people's schedules and making sure you have all the children.

<v Speaker 2>Yeah, this is a thing.

<v Speaker 3>This is the thing, the laminate mom and the napkin mom.

<v Speaker 2>I am laminate mom, well, not my mom, but Knickknack

<v Speaker 2>is a laminade.

<v Speaker 3>She's totally a laminate mom because.

<v Speaker 1>She keeps everything together and she's so good at it.

<v Speaker 3>But I embrace my role. I know I'm a napkin mom.

<v Speaker 3>I am a good napkin mom.

<v Speaker 1>We have options for napkins, That's what I mean.

<v Speaker 2>I don't know why this is making me so happy,

<v Speaker 2>but that is so spot on, because yes, I can

<v Speaker 2>see a field trip with baby Nana and you just

<v Speaker 2>losing everything.

<v Speaker 3>For everything, I'm a napkin mom.
