Maybe I subconsciously knew the Domed City was filmed at a shopping mall, but I always grew up with the daydream of having an apartment in one. 😁

For years, I told my mom it was impossible to make soup out of COOKED turkey on Friday morning.

Remember when Coke found out that some stars contain ethyl formate, which would “make them taste like raspberries”, and put out a raspberry Coke that “tastes like stars ✨ “?
