What is Sister Rooy?

Hop along to conversations with the Kaz sisters, Ashley and Angela. You'll find a mix of silly, serious and everything in between. 🦘

This is sisters ashley and angela.

And this is Sister Rooy Welcome back to Sister

Rooy.

Hey.

Angela does not know anything about today's

episode, but she did just celebrate a birthday

yesterday.

Yes, I did.

So everyone might know that Angela is very goal

oriented and she's big on New Year's resolutions,

and we did our whole thing about bringing in 2026.

But since you just had a birthday, I am going to

be reflecting with you on your past year. That's

not a calendar year, but a year around the Sun M.

So this is gonna be all about Angela.

Oh.

And how she answers some questions.

Oh. Okay.

So I have come up with some things for you. Some

are fun, some are deep. We'll see what we get.

Okay.

All right, I'm going to just start it off with.

Tell me something that is memorable to you from,

like, milestone ages or just childhood,

adolescence. Just, like, one memory that pops into

mind. So for childhood, it could probably just be,

like, the earliest memory you have.

I don't know what my earliest memory is, but.

Okay,

could be anything. It could be a good memory, a

bad memory, a lesson learned, something that just

sticks out when you think back to those specific

ages or milestones in your life.

I'm really putting you on the spot. Angela didn't

know anything, and I didn't have her prepare for

anything. Yeah.

Uh, nothing. Let's see. The earliest. One of the

earliest memories, I think is kindergarten.

Really? Yeah.

Okay.

I just remember seeing the bubble balloons in the.

Because we learned letters in kindergarten.

Okay. I was going to say they're like, blow up

letters for the. For the Alphabet.

Yeah. Of the Alphabet. And so those were fun.

Remember seeing those balloons in the classroom

and then just the cubbies. So that is, like,

earliest memory that I can really think.

Okay.

Of.

nice.

Yeah.

The Alphabet.

I know, right?

Love that for you. Education. Starting out strong.

Yeah. But then. Then, I mean, outside of Just

like, school stuff. I remember second grade, our

trip to Disney, and one of the first times I got

some kind of souvenir. It was this magenta Minnie

Mouse shirt that was way too big for me.

You'll grow.

But I loved it and I slept in it. And it was such

a last minute purchase too, that I think it was on

the way home where I was like, mom, I didn't get a

souvenir.

They bought it at the airport.

for Disney trip, I would have been in

kindergarten. So there's not much I remember. I

just know, like, photos. But I didn't really get

to go on much.

Yeah.

But I do know I left a Beanie Baby in the hotel.

Yeah, the black one.

Black Panther.

The Black Panther, yes. Yeah, I. I don't know if

that was the one trip that we lost that Beanie

Baby, but I remember that too, because you're

like, that was Disney Beanie Baby lifetime. Also a

memory.

Okay, so Disney Alphabet.

okay, where am I going next?

Like middle school. Adolescence.

Middle school. Cool.

You know what? I think one of my memories that I

am, um, proud of.

there was a girl in our school that she got made

fun of a lot. And I remember she was mean to one

of my friends and I stood up for her. I don't know

what I said. I'm not somebody who, you know, it's

confrontational. Yeah, I'm not aggressive in my

language of, you know, shouting out swear words at

them and cussing them out. Like, nothing like

that.

Yeah.

But I made it clear that I didn't like how she was

treating my friend. But then later on at the, at

lunchtime cafeteria, we're sitting all around and

the girl is looking for a place to sit and I

invited her to sit next to me and she was shocked

because she was like, thank you letting me sit

next to you. Like after I just.

Yeah, after dissed your friend.

Yeah. I was like, we're past it. Sit down, go on,

move on. So that I'm proud of. And what grade was

that?

Yeah.

Ah, it would have been like sixth.

Fifth.

Sixth grade. Ish.

So yeah, The bone I was going to throw you was

that you got one of your, lifelong childhood

friends that you're still friends with today.

Uh, oh, yes. Yeah,

you guys went to the same college and were

roommates and are still friends today.

Yeah, I just called her and she texted me back

like last week? No, two days ago.

Three. Well, it was your birthday.

I didn't call because of my birthday though.

Well, uh, moving on to high school.

High school. Hmm.

it was a lot of homework.

Yeah. You did so much more work than me and you

were the better student than me. But that's okay.

High school though. I've always told everybody

this was harder than college.

Yeah, I say that too.

what do I remember from high school?

I went to. I went to sad memory first. There was a

girl that passed away from a car accident.

Oh yeah. That was my freshman year. When you were

senior year.

Yeah. And I did not like how they, handled. They

brought in our whole class to an auditorium and

told us the news.

I like, got chills.

I know, but like I said, it could be sad. Yeah.

But I just shocked that that's where my mind went.

Um, but what was the saddest part was her closest

friends found out at the same time. And that

really got me. I could cry now.

Heart on your sleeve over there.

Yeah. Anyway. Huh.

Do you have a favorite golf story? Because you

were on the golf team?

golf I wish I was just better at, but I just never

got my hips to swing hard enough to have different

club length drives.

All right, well, I guess that's that on high

school,

a ton of homework. golf that I wasn't completely

great at, but I played on the varsity team. But I

was not, the best, No. You know what, uh, memory

that actually kind of makes me upset about. It was

a basketball game.

I don't know.

I think I must have been junior varsity.

but I got in there and I scored three baskets in a

row. I was on fire. Like, everything hit the net,

perfect sunk. It never even hit the rim. It was a

perfect swish, you know?

Yeah.

Mr. Walker pulled me out of that game for the rest

of the game. Uh, I was so upset. Still upset about

it.

and I never had him for math either.

no, he did.

He was a math teacher.

No, no, no.

What was he.

He did history. Yeah, he did history.

Okay. History. everybody loved him. And, that was

my memory of him.

Yeah, he. He must have. Yes. Sadly, he passed away

unexpectedly the summer after my class graduated.

So. Yeah, my class had him as, the golf coach

But he was a golf coach, huh? Uh, yeah. No, he was

not our go. My golf coach ever.

Yeah, he was basketball for you. Yeah.

Okay.

But, yeah, I was.

I, uh, was so mad. I was on fire that day in for

like, three minutes.

A lot of fun memories from high school for you.

now going on to college. I feel like you loved

college.

I loved college. It was just like, I was an R.A.

and, um, we.

It's so funny that I have answers for you.

I know. Well, there. It's just. There's so many

potential stories, so I was like, which one? But

one of my favorites. And I really bonded with a

friend who ghosted me.

we were RAs together. And we really bonded because

the first night that we were doing rounds, classes

m. Weren't in session, and I mean, the dorms were

pretty much empty, and we had to do room checks of

some sort. And we go into One of very few rooms

that had four bunks instead of two. we go in and

check the wardrobes of these, where it was just,

you know, you could hang your clothes. And there.

You opened the door, and there were. There was a

mirror on the inside door.

Like an armoire. Yes. Okay.

And we both look at these, and we're like, do you

have a mirror on yours? Like, we're talking to

each other. Like, do you have a mirror on yours?

Because we live by ourselves in these dorms. One

of the perks of being an RA And I think both of us

were like, no, we don't have these, but these

students do. So we took them.

You took the mirrors?

Yeah, they were easy to. They were, um. It's one

of those.

Where. Have the students already moved in?

No, they had not moved in yet. We were doing room

checks before students had moved in. And, uh, you

had to do some kind of inventory thing. And

anyway, we took those mirrors and put one in ours

because we were like, we want a mirror. So we got

a mirror. And then we bonded over.

I hadn't heard that story, so. Yeah, I would not

have gone to that one.

Yeah, that one. That one was. I'm fond of. Yeah.

But there were a lot of late nights where I. I

loved that from our dorm room, I could just walk

across the sidewalk, and there was, that, like,

commons area where you could buy all your, like,

little convenience items.

And where we got our Ben and Jerry's.

Yeah. And there was. They called it late night.

And, There was a microwave and stuff. And I would

always buy a chocolate muffin and eat that and,

like, hang out with friends out or in the. In the

couch area.

Didn't you also say that you had gotten them to

make you a, blt the Kaz way?

Oh, yes, yes. Everyone hated, though, because

peanut allergies with everybody these days. they

had to make anything with peanut butter so

special. they had to put different gloves on. It

was a whole glove thing. That was a process.

So they hated you.

Yes, sometimes. But if they would call out to the

line, like, anybody else need PB&J? Or, you know,

whatever. Anything with Peanut butter and there'd

be a few hands, then it seemed a little bit more

worth it. But no, I didn't care so much. They

just. It just was kind of annoying sometimes for

them.

Well, for those of you who don't know, we have a

BLT that we pretty much.

instead of mayo on our BLTs, we do peanut butter.

And if you're our mom, then you do both.

Yeah, I don't do that.

Yeah. Which we don't do. I'm not a mayo. We aren't

mayo people. But yeah, we do peanut butter with

our, you know, bacon sandwiches.

Do Jeremy and Jason still eat those?

Yeah, well, I know Jeremy does.

Okay. I just haven't talked to them about it.

I don't know about Jason. I really thought that

you'd say something about studying abroad.

Oh, you know, that was also great. That was.

second to last semester I studied abroad in

Guadalajara.

Yeah.

Okay. It was a good, fun time.

Fast forward to work, life, dating, marriage,

child. Now moving forward.

Okay. So work. I hated my initial job for like

three months where I almost was like, oh my gosh,

did I make a wrong choice? Because customer

service. I was hired to be customer service for a

wellness program. And it was going to launch. It

had never, had any members yet. And they cross

trained us on medical insurance stuff. But they

always said in training you're never gonna need

this stuff, so why would I pay attention as

closely? But anyway, It was just so much yelling

and angry people on the phone.

And I'm like, shoot, I wish I paid more attention

and that I could help. And I just remember, like,

gosh, it was dark and dreary because I'd make it

onto, uh, the train commuting downtown Chicago,

and I'd have to like, wake up before the sun was

even up around 4am, um, 4:15 maybe. I. I don't

know. It was before 5 and I get onto the train

before the sun is rising. It was nice to see the

sunrise. Got to be on the Train clock in, get

yelled at, have a bit of stress and get back on

the train.

Come home and live with the parents.

No, no. Get back on the train when the sun is

pretty much setting.

And then. And then I end up, It was a blessing

that the parents would have dinner and then I'd go

to bed and I'd cry.

Oh my gosh.

Yeah, I was really sad about the first couple

months because I was like, did I make the. I was.

I was not happy.

All right. I mean, you ended up working for the

company though, for almost 13 years. 13 years,

okay.

Yeah, they. They, got me by a few weeks. I'm kind

of bitter about it,

but yeah, then they cut me.

They're dead to us pretty much.

I mean, now you're a stay at

home mom and you love your kids.

No, honestly, it was a blessing in disguise. Like

I.

Deez Skies

I did.

So funny. Yeah, you're just disguise.

Which skies?

Apparently the dark ones.

It started above Angela started dark. It got real

sunny. And then it depressed me again, actually

with how they cut me. But In the end, blessing in

disguise because I'm happy that I did all of it

prior to, like had a career. I felt like I had a

career, you know, before becoming stay at home

mom, which I. I feel like I wouldn't then be

questioning. Would I have enjoyed a corporate

life, career life, like. So I'm glad to have had

that and really had successes with all of that. So

anyway, from a work perspective, what

a great positive, right?

Yeah.

Outlook I got there.

But ask me like a year ago would not have. But.

Okay, so you hit me with a work question and then,

um. M dating.

Marriage, children, Like I prefer to forget about

the exes. Yeah, that's fine.

Yeah. That's just.

Those aren't good memories. But they were there

for a season.

Yeah.

And now they're gone for a reason.

Yeah.

Do you need to. Do you need a breather?

I don't know

really. Having Angela reminisce has gotten her Put

into a, um.

Giggle fits. All right, the giggle fits. Uh, yeah.

Milestones. What.

now you're done with work life, you can move on to

Jake and happy times and marriage. What is, like,

one key memory that you'd like to share about your

relationship with Jake?

Uh, you know what's funny with Jake?

Tell me.

When I first met him, I did not think at all he

would have been, ever who I was gonna be dating,

you know?

Okay.

Because we. So it was after, uh. Gosh, I was with

Bozo.

Sure.

For, like, nine. Almost nine years. Eight and a

half. Which is just wild.

Yes. I was in the void for almost that long.

Ridiculous. So anyway, I was going through breakup

central, and then maybe two months after that. I'm

starting to like, okay, I can make some friends,

get out there. I'm not even in the mood to date.

Nothing. Nothing like that. But I get onto a

meetup app.

That's when it happens.

Discover.

Yes.

Discovery. It always happens. But anyway, get on

to meetup. and I see this group. New friends, 20s

and 30s.

And I just liked it because everything wasn't just

about meeting at a bar. And so I. There were um,

girl nights that I signed up for. Did a couple of

those, and then I saw Sand volleyball. And I go to

this sand volleyball event, There's maybe three

volleyball courts. They're all pretty much full.

And Jake is in the background with a beer in his

hand. He's got his shirt off, and I'm

like, this dude does he have a backward cap on?

Probably. Yes. Yes.

I can see it.

He's feeling great. And I'm like, ah, uh, great.

The party animal. Like, that is what I thought of

Jake immediately when I first met him. And I find

it funny that I'm married to him now. So that's a

good one.

But, uh, we love that for you because now you have

two beautiful children.

I know. I mean, honestly, it worked out. I can't

believe how it worked out, but it worked out.

Do you want to say any moment between both kids

Honestly, I just love seeing little bait, the

little babies as little siblings just giggling

and.

Oh, yeah, when they play together, it's the best.

And, like, uh, the home is filled with laughter.

Yes.

And dad shout out to you. Because laughter is

great.

Honestly. Yes. Today. Just today, I was in a

fantastic mood with these children. Oh, this is

what I've discovered with Emma. I love scaring

her, and she loves it. We were running around, not

playing tag or anything, but we just play like,

I'm gonna get you and And Zach is just happy. He's

like, uh, I'm running around waddling, you know,

giggling and happy and all back and forth. And

then Emma, uh, she's running around looking for

me. And you can hear, because she's bare feet, and

on our tile, you can hear the pitter patter,

pitter patter. So I know where she is in the

house. I'm like, okay. She runs past me. I run to

a different part of the house, and I'm like,

hiding so that she's coming up or whatever. And

when I can come up behind her and scare her, uh,

oh, it's the best now. And so I'll say boo. And

Emma has also been saying boo to Zach, and he is

starting to say boo, and it is just the cutest

thing. but it's really funny because I discovered

this maybe two or three days ago, and at my

birthday dinner, we were at a restaurant, and

however the tables are set up and booths, our

server was able to scare Emma. And he scared her

real good. She got, like, shy, nervous, whatever,

and, like, turned immediately to me, and he felt

so bad, and he got her, like, this bowl of ice

cream. It was the cutest thing. But anyway, yes,

I. There's so many moments with the kids But right

now, I didn't know how much it would pull at the

heartstrings for, like, the sibling love. And

like. As they're running together and laughing.

And then, one other quick memory that happened

today is I'm nursing Zach. Emma hadn't seen me

because I just went to a Pilates class, so

they're, like, extra happy to see Mom. And I'm

sitting there in the chair, and I'm, um, nursing

Zach. He's pretty much Almost asleep. And Emma

just gives him a kiss on the head. And I'm just

like. Which is funny because before Jake, I was on

the fence about kids. Really didn't think I was

gonna have him. So, you know, here I am.

Yes, you have said you didn't know you always

wanted kids.

Yeah, I was really on the fence and there was

never a for sure.

Yes.

But, hey, when you meet the right person, you

know.

Yeah, totally. so out of all of your years so far,

is there any. Go to advice. that you would say or

give anyone.

Give your kids.

Give me. Give youngsters a younger version of

yourself.

dang, there's just so much, um. It is funny how

things that you find out to be so heart wrenching

and heartbreaking really do end up working out.

Like losing your job Yeah. The biggest things, out

of like, lessons learned that you never would

guess what the positives would be until time has

totally passed. But like my breakup with Bozo.

Bozo, and then definitely the job loss, those are

like the two biggest ones that really impacted me

because I was really sad. But, I'm like, you know,

honestly, I think it worked out how it

needed to and now it's all positive in the end

because we're out of the void, people, and I am

the only thing that matters. Just kidding. Just

kidding. But it was a positive. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

So what would be one thing that you would want

people to remember you by if you were to die

tomorrow? That's how it sounded, but that's not

how I meant it. But yes,

I want people who interacted with me to really

know and feel that I cared about them.

Like, it's one of those things that I pride myself

on. When I meet people, I find it very important

to know their name. And I remember their names

typically. Like, I just, you know, So I truly do

think that everybody has something special about

them. And I want people to know that I noticed

that. Like, honestly, that's beautiful. Would you

have expected that?

I don't know. What I. I didn't expect anything for

that one.

Do you have a tear in your eyes?

No, I just had a scratch on my cheek.

I mean, what I would think sometimes people would

think about me is that I was typically like an

always positive person. Like, I think I usually

see I'm an Optimistic person. And I feel like

that's what people

M.

I don't know.

No, it's just funny because all of the memories

from your beginning years were like, dark or

negative.

Those are the ones that caused me to learn,

apparently. I don't know.

You're doing great.

so we kind of touched on it. But if you were to

send a message one year to yourself.

A year.

Yeah. So one year from now, if you were to send a

message to yourself now what do you think you

would say? Because we kind of touched on like what

you'd say to your younger self and that's. If

there's any heartbreak, you will come out on top.

it's really funny because. Well, now you know this

because I touched on it briefly when you asked me

how I felt about or how my birthday was yesterday.

Okay.

And I said I was sad.

Yes. It was one of your first, sad birthdays.

Yeah.

I really don't think I've had a sad birthday where

I was ever in my head about age and such. And I

obviously have two kids and it's on my mind

whether I want a third or not, you know, So I was

sad about not knowing how I felt.

Sad about the unknown.

Yeah. But also feeling like it's a, I want to say

ticking time bomb. That's how it feels like to me

because I'm not 40 yet and I know you can have

kids later in life, but like, it's not my

preference. My body is not what it was in my 20s.

Yeah, but I mean, you had Zach and you were just

fine.

I know. Yes. but there's just all the typical

thoughts that you can imagine of getting older and

considering being pregnant again and not knowing

when you want that to happen, if that is what we

decide to do. so I guess my dad taking advice of

what I just said, I would send myself a reminder

that things will work out as they need, as they

should. And I shouldn't worry about it.

It kind of goes back into what you were saying So

you would, you'd say the same thing?

Yeah, pretty much.

Okay, so not like rapid fire, but some questions

what happened in the last year that you want to

carry with you into the next year?

you know, I got back into ultimate Frisbee. That

would be nice to to be able to continue, in some

way.

Okay, yeah, I somewhat expected that answer. What

is one thing you're grateful that happened this

past year

I am grateful actually that I taught my boy to

swim.

Excellent. Good answer, Good answer. Yay. What is

one lesson you'll carry into the next year? Did

you learn anything this last year of being 36?

Um,

more marriage wise. Communication can always be

better and that's always going to be a work in

progress.

Feel you there. what was your favorite memory from

this past year?

Favorite memory.

there's so many. I think a lot of them relate to

the sibling love,

the kiddos.

With the kiddos, there's just so many good.

You literally just told me that you had one of

your favorite vacations with your in law family.

Oh, uh, that's true. That was a good one.

There's a few good ones. Like I'm happy that I got

back into ultimate Frisbee. It's really funny, we

just got a bunch of random girls together and

played at regionals. But like we all made it to

nationals. So like that's pretty cool. Um, but

yeah, We've had some good vacations where I think

my expectations are just like better set. And I've

set either better boundaries or I'm um, just

trying to treat myself more. so okay, lots of

that.

okay.

What challenge taught you the most?

I mean that goes I think back to the communication

thing.

Jake, I'm happy. Keeps me honest about some

Things. And really, he can be a better fighter at

talking through when I am, not wanting to chat or

whatever.

he's persistent to work through it.

Yes.

Okay.

Yes.

homegirl. I'll tell you the challenge you're in

right now.

Oh, are you going to tell me?

Potty training with Emma.

Oh, my gosh. How did I forget about that one?

I don't know. But that is your challenge that you

are being tossed through. That you are still

learning.

Yes. Thank you. That's my answer.

You're so welcome. It was. It was a great answer,

though, with Jake, too. I'm glad he can work

through things. It is. It is really actually good.

I'm not being sarcastic.

No, yeah, no, I was trying to think of a better

way to say it. That Jake is also really good at,

helping me push through. And, like, that is what

I'm challenged with. Shutting down pretty much.

And I can be super stubborn. And he. Homeboy does

persevere.

Good on him. I, too, do the same things.

Got it.

What song do you think defined this year? Or show

or obsession? Something that you just maybe

listened to so much, probably because of Emma, or

just defined everything going on with you this

year.

Well, you know, it's funny. I re. I have

rediscovered, Demi Lovato's confident. It's so. I

get so amped. It's so fantastic.

Are you building your confidence?

Totally. But that's fantastic at the same time.

Wilson Phillips. Hold on. Also just hits, like,

it's so good. And then. Yeah, it's just like all

of Avril Lavigne's popular songs. Those are, uh.

That's my anthem these days, because that's with

my girl.

And yeah, Emma will sing them. M. Sing your ear

off with them.

So fabulous.

Okay, so to next year. What are you looking

forward to in the year of 37?

I do like, an odd numbered year once I hit 30.

Okay.

I mean, I'm not usually into odd numbers. Even

numbers, whatever. But once I hit 30.

Coming from the person who used to eat Skittles in

only even numbers of the right colors.

But, you know, now I. I'll eat all of them now.

You're on to odds. Apparently.

Yeah, it happened after 30. Like, 31. 33.

Okay. Those were the years.

Those apparently. I. I just like the sound of.

Feels right. 37.

So is there anything specifically you're looking

forward to?

I don't know. I want.

I look forward to Emma hopefully becoming potty

trained.

Yes, hopefully. Because, honestly, I feel like

that is a hindrance to wanting to travel any

place, because I have realized, even on some of

our smaller trips, that she's just gonna hold. It

sets her back, and so I. What's the point of

traveling if it's just gonna cause her pain? So

once I'm past that hurdle, then maybe I'll take a

cruise.

A cruise would be nice.

A cruise sounds lovely. And I want to go to

Hawaii. Like, I just. I don't know if that's.

I Us talking about Hawaii the other day. Brought

it back. yeah. And then also playing more

Ultimate.

Yes. Yes.

How do you want to grow as a person in this next

year?

I mean, I guess you kind of also said it for your

marriage, like, communication and not shutting him

out more, but still less.

I think my patience still needs to grow and will

always be a. Ah, challenge with kids. They will

always test your patience.

Yeah. Every year that the kids grow, too, comes

new. Yeah, New challenges, for sure.

Yeah.

What is your favorite berry if you had to choose

one and only one to eat for the rest of your life?

Oh, my gosh.

Angela's obsessed with berries. I saw these

canisters. They screamed her name at me because

she needed them in her life. And then I filled

them with berry

things, and that's basically if I.

It's been a berry good year for Angela.

Oh, my gosh. Is this all why you wanted to say

I snuck it in there? So choose a berry.

I still have chocolate, though.

In this scenario, you can have it however you want

it, but it is only one berry and one berry only,

man.

I don't know. I'm between the strawberry and the

blueberry, because those are what I'm eating.

Most of that is what I see you eat the most, but

you only get one.

Mmm. maybe blueberry, because there's more things

I can also mix it in, like blueberry muffins.

Blueberry waffles.

All right. She chose blueberry and I have

something.

Is this what you guessed? I would guess.

No. Oh, this. Oh, is a bowl that I'm holding up.

I saw you grab something from your kitchen, and I

thought it was a blue package, but I didn't.

It was a blue bowl, and I'm gonna have you. You

say you've tried one before, but we kept

forgetting, and so this was the perfect

opportunity.

It's a date.

It is a prune.

Oh, a prune.

Wait, is it a prune? It's a prune. I was like,

wait, is it a date? Garna, you confused me. It's a

prune.

I don't know what a date is.

Let me tell everyone. I had a prune the other day,

and I had, uh, asked Angela if she'd ever had one.

And I am waiting to share my experience. And so I

just need to know your experience of eating this

prune. So here you go. You got a prune. Do you

want multiples?

No, I'm okay.

That's pretty big.

I feel like I'm just happy it's not a cockroach or

something. It does not look appealing. If I had

just seen, like. What is that? Like a slug?

A wrinkly slug.

Has anyone seen a prune? I don't think I would

have guessed. This is a prune anyway. Okay. Smells

like a big raisin.

Wow. You just went for it. I think I bit mine in

half. Go. Bigger. Home.

Go.

Your face says things.

It's like it wants to be a raisin.

It's too big to be a raisin. It's worse. Do you

like raisins?

I love raisins. Okay. Do you not?

No, I like raisins.

It's just the, I don't know what terms to use for

fruit, but it's like the fleshy, like the body.

The body of it. There's so much of it.

I know. Like I said, you shoved it all in your

mouth. I took a bite of mine. I bit mine in half.

Could you eat a bunch of these.

In quarters?

Let me tell you my experience. I bit into this

thing, and I chewed it up, and I thought I was

eating a cockroach.

I'm glad you told me that after.

It's like the skin. When you bit it in half, the.

It's like the skin of it, like, burst, fell off

and cracked. And I. Yeah, assumed there's so much

mushy stuff inside, and it's kind of crunchy.

Ish. Not like crunchy like you just ate

a bug, but yeah, it It was very much like an

insect before because you said it looked like a

cockroach and it does. And then. But also it

didn't obviously taste like a cockroach. It tasted

fine. But let me tell you, I cannot have a prune

solely based off of texture because that, to me,

was eating a cockroach.

Ew. Well, thanks for that.

To end on a positive, my next

trip around the sun started off with a, uh, prune.

Prune, not date. To end on the positive, what is

your favorite part of your everyday?

You know, walking into my kids room. They share a

room and they just have the biggest smile on their

face. When I walk into that room, Zach's just

looking toward the door already, and he has just

like the cutest smile. And then Emma's just like

bouncing like, I'm ready.

Get out of this. Get out of this room. Ready for

the day.

Yeah, they're. But they're cute even before that

moment when I hear them on the baby monitor and

they play together before I go into that room.

They love to mirror each other in their cribs and

they'll hop, they'll throw their heads back and

then they'll come back and they're just giggling.

That's the cutest thing. That's my favorite so

far. Cute. But then also, I love at the end of the

day when Emma tells me, okay, bye. Have a great

nap. I'll see you when you wake up. It's just the

best.

She says it in like one full breath. Like that.

Yes. Every time before. Every time she falls

asleep.

It's so funny because Ace has been calling sleep

like bedtime a nap too. And I'm like, no, this is

just bed. I know.

I can't correct her anymore. Everything is a nap.

I'm like, I don't care. Just go to sleep. Yeah,

well, that was, uh, Angela interview.

Yeah, thanks. I didn't ask you any questions.

It wasn't about me. Bye.
