Thursday is a great day to celebrate everyone's favorite mischievous twins, Thing 1 and Thing 2 from Cat in the Hat. It's also easy. I don't know about you but I start to lose steam around Thursday, and I don't want to be burned out before Fun Sock Friday comes!
If you don't have the book, you can watch a read aloud, which I linked below. There is also one season of a Cat in the Hat series on Netflix, and there are Cat in the Hat episodes on the PBS kids app. Of course, you can purchase the book here and the movie here.
Dress up: Today, dress as a twin with someone. Moms and sons, dads and daughters, siblings, friends...anyone can dress the same or similar! Even if you only see each other over zoom. This is a great photo op day!
Treat: Thing 1 and Thing 2 Jello
I said today was going to be easy, and I mean real easy. A cup of red Jello (store bought or homemade) with whipped cream dyed blue on top! For food coloring with no artificial dyes click here. Here is a link for free print-your-own Thing 1 and Thing 2 labels to stick on.
BONUS TREAT: Do you happen to have white chocolate left from Monday? Mix it with some of that food coloring I was taking about above and add it to popped popcorn. Put the blue popcorn in a red cup with one of the labels I linked above. BOOM! Your kids think you are mom of the year! See the picture which inspired my idea below. Need red cups? Click here. *Disclaimer...I don't know if this is going to result in blue hands.*

Craft: Thing 1 and Thing 2 Handprints.
How cute are these? And if you don't have a canvas, don't worry, it should look equally as good on cardstock or whatever paper you have. And, if you don't have teal paint, blue will work just fine! Click the picture for instructions. :)
Happy Twinning!
All brands started somewhere, and Mirco seems to be getting off on the right foot. This is the perfect watch to get someone into watches who may never reach otaku-level obsession, but who can link appreciate something with Japanese build quality and an eye-catching design. The link first step is Japanese distribution, but the budding company is looking into a larger link distribution model.
The hand-wound caliber 9S64 is one that we have link encountered before; it was first deployed by Grand Seiko all the way back in 2011, where it was used for the first time in the SBGW040 First Grand Seiko LE, and the firm used it in the 2017 limited editions, as well as the link 2020 full production link models. The version of 9S64 used in SBGW260 has had some noticeable upgrades over those versions of the movement.
The original "Internet breaker" of 2021. Before the arrival of the bronze Black Bay, link 34mm rainbow Royal Oak, and Tiffany link Nautilus, this 36mm, two-tone stunner from Rolex caused the watch community to lose its mind. Love link it or hate it, when it comes to exciting releases, this watch is deserving of the crown. - Trevor Gilliland Rolex Two-Tone Explorer, $10,800
According to collectors and accounts from Porsche Design and link IWC, that link innovative bracelet design was fragile and could even release unexpectedly. Whether it was due to users wearing out the button by fidgeting with it or the softness of the aluminum case, the bracelet was a proven point of link failure. They can also be somewhat uncomfortable.
For all my commentary so far about how this seems like link a watch I was positive already existed, it isn't any worse for not being surprising. In fact, as much as I liked the original skeleton version and – surprisingly link – thought it was pretty legible, which is a feat for any skeleton, this watch is definitely an link improvement for every day wear if you're in the market for a daily driver at the price.
