Extremely Serious Deals and Food Holidays: Pop v. Soda
- And I thought the last few weeks were quiet! I’ve got literally nothing on deals for national food days. Your local fooderies might, so look for these:
- 12/15: National Lemon Cupcake Day
- 12/17: National Maple Syrup Day
- 12/18: National Roast Suckling Pig Day because sure
- Never fear! There is free(ish) and cheap stuff to be had:
- On weekends throughout the rest of December, Starbucks has free hot chocolate for anyone buying any grande. But more about Starbucks in a moment.
- Wendy’s has “Penny Pops,” which is a cute name that will surely reignite the soda v. pop debate.
- Despite growing up in the Midwest and saying “pop,” most of my life, I say “soda” now. It just feels more grown-up.
- App-Based Deals
Other Foodstuffs
- Anyone who grew up never seeing their names on personalized bicycle license plates hates these promos. Congratulations to all of the Taylors, Britneys, and Jamies out there. Again. Shut up; I’m not bitter.
- Nahbucks? I adore you. If you want to support anyone except Starbucks, visit Nahbucks.
- I rarely drink normal sodas. I hate colas, and I’m bored with everything else. If I’m drinking something sugary and carbonated, it usually looks like this:
These Are For Reading, Not Eating
- What books do you think everyone should read? Share in the comments below!
- I’m aware “fooderies” is not a word.
- I finished Janet Evanovich’s Back to the Bedroom, which I’d describe as odd but cute.
- I’m three and a half chapters into Jennifer Weiner’s Good in Bed. I have an old copy, not the reissue. She’s . . . a detail-loving writer, which is admirable, but I’ve never been a huge fan of the style. I’m a firm believer that you can over-describe. That said, I’m intrigued by where the book is going. I’m always interested in fat characters. Representation matters!
- I’ve got a ton of my writing in the wild, nearly all of it free. Please give something a read, and share it with your reader buddies!
- If you’ve ever learned anything from this blog, I ask you to please buy me a chai!
