Welcome to the new Stumpe headquarters! The move was painful and Kelly's ready to complain again but the new place already feels like home after just a few days' stay. Falling in love with her new Speed Queen washer and dryer sure helped, too.
Today's Merriam Webster word of the day is aegis meaning 'under the protection of.'
Kelly and Lizz both have delightful new base model luxuries to share today. Lizz is replacing endless scrolling with the NY Times Connections Wordle and Mini Crossword. And, she's fully embracing snack packs and adult lunchables. Try it yourself and revive her 'feed yourself like you feed your toddler' motto. Kelly has impressed her home organizers with her Sutter Home four packs of wine for cooking. Whether you go red or wine, this is a cooking hack you won't want to skip.
Lizz picked up something freaky from Dr. Pepper and Pepsi for today's taste drive. Are Pepsi mango and Dr. Pepper creamy coconut worth the buy? Tune in to find out!

In industry news, General Motors is one step closer to taking its electric vehicle battery technology to the moon. Tesla faces yet another trial over their autopilot technology. And Kelly shares the difference between Tesla, Ford, and GM when it comes to mapped roads and self-driving safety.
Amanda from To Be Organized wraps up the show as the Carpool's special guest. She shares her top hacks for labeling toy bins with images, starting with your appliances in the kitchen to determine your 'zones' and how to use Lazy Susans to make hard to reach spaces functional. Kelly advocates for sustainability, balancing it out, and using nice things if you have them.
Amanda also shares her go-to ditch-the drive through—breakfast for dinner. Pancake mix is always on hand, add some eggs, some sausage or bacon, and fruit and dinner for the family, or just the kids, is ready in no time.
