Monday Edition - November 2, 2025

Good morning Member

I hope you’ve had a fantastic weekend and are now eager to start the week with a curious thought. I was helping a friend look something up online the other day—and before I knew it, I’d gone down one of those classic “just one more click” rabbit holes.

I’m curious, though: What do you search on the internet these days? Are you looking up recipes, old songs, home projects, or maybe tracking down old friends? Share your answers in the forum—I’d love to see what everyone’s been exploring lately.

Let’s give a big hand to our Word Wizards who cracked last Friday’s Word Unscramble: Q I K L Y U C. The word was quickly! Nicely done, everyone! 👏

Now, let’s test your skills again with today’s Word Unscramble: C R U S T N O T C

Post your answer in the forum and if you cracked it, you’ll earn a shout-out tomorrow! Alright, let’s get into today’s stories: Easy kitchen tweaks to slash your bills, guilt-free drinks coming out this month, America’s oldest family grocery, and more—each one handpicked to brighten your Monday and start your week off on the right note.

Remember spending hours pressing this stretchy, rubbery goo onto the Sunday comics just to see your favorite characters “magically” appear on it? It was half toy, half miracle, and somehow never lost its charm. What did you use the silly putty for—comic copying, bouncing, or just stretching it until it snapped? You can also post your favorite toys from yesteryear in the forum!
