The mom, named Mandy, who goes by the username @twomomssquad, shared her scenario to TikTok in a two-part video series that has garnered 1.6 million views. Her family all have COVID and so Mandy turned to using online shopping app Instacart to get groceries. Her “essential” groceries included Pedialyte, popsicles, water and Gatorade, but she instead ended up with boxes and boxes of Hamburger Helper’s Beef Stroganoff. When an ordered item is out of stock, shoppers can pick a similar item to replace it, but Instacart also suggests an ideal replacement to the shopper....

Gov. Ron DeSantis’ administration then proceeded to assemble a council tasked with creating restrictions for public school libraries and to train school librarians to abide by the law. But as reported by The Daily Beast last week, some of those appointed to the group are conservative parents with a history of pushing for book bans. Candidates with years of teaching and experience were passed over for self-nominated candidates like Michelle Beavers, the website reported....

This matchup seems fitting, as these odds would probably seem upside-down any other year. But 2020, as we all know, has been quite different in many ways. And for coach Bill Belichick’s Patriots, it has been an abject failure. Usually dominant in the second half of the season, the Pats have lost two games in a row, scoring 15 points combined in the process, and they saw themselves eliminated from postseason contention for the first time in 11 years....

This will be the 119th matchup between the division rivals and their first meeting in 2020. The Vikings lead this historic series 60-56-2 and could very well push their all-time head-to-head record to five games above .500 this evening. Despite having two fewer wins than Chicago, the Vikings have been moving up while the Bears move down. Minnesota has won two games in a row and three of its past five, while Chicago has dropped its past three games after starting 5-1....

Sticking with one airline card is often a better bet. American Airlines is offering new AAdvantage cardholders a 5,000-mile bonus and a cross-country trip for 17,500 miles (but the card has a high $85 annual fee). Or consider sticking with a simple cash-back card, like American Express Blue or National City’s CashBuilder card. You can earn as much as $1,000 a year in cash rebates. And, with that kind of dough, you can buy a ticket almost any time, anywhere....

SAVINGOpportunities Lost CONSUMERS ARE LOSING $30 BILlion or more in interest by keeping too much money in low-paying savings accounts, says the Consumer Federation of America. Savers are stashing $1 trillion in bank savings accounts that average just 2.1 percent a year in interest. Even conservative investors could better without giving up their Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation protection, says Stephen Brobeck, the consumer group’s director. They could move their funds to a banks money-market deposit account, now paying better than 6 percent interest at hungrier institutions....

Haunted Wenger running into nemesis The 31-year-old is the same age as Laurent Koscielny, although the requirements of a full-back are different to a centre-back, with athleticism, stamina and positional sense arguably more crucial to the position. It may seem harsh to focus criticism on a player who puts full commitment into every game, but there have been times when wingers and even lower league opponents have looked far too good for Monreal....

Carl Mock, 40, of West Yellowstone, was transported to Eastern Idaho Regional Medical Center on April 15 with “severe injuries” after being attacked by the bear just south of Baker’s Hole Campground, roughly three miles north of West Yellowstone. News of his death was confirmed via an update to a GoFundMe page set up last week to raise money for his ongoing medical treatment. The campaign, launched after the attack by West Yellowstone resident Keith Johnson, initially said Mock required multiple surgeries and would likely face a “long recovery,” however the update, posted on April 17, said he had since passed away....

Third-placed Milan missed the opportunity to take advantage of Scudetto rivals Juventus and Roma playing each other later on Saturday as they battled to a disappointing 0-0 draw. Strikers Carlos Bacca and Gianluca Lapadula had efforts cleared off the line and Luca Antonelli struck the post as the hosts were frustrated after losing to Roma in their previous match.

The France-born defender signed for Ligue 1 side Montpellier from Auxerre in May, and has been getting attention after breaking into their first team. This included a call from the Bolivian Football Association about the possibility of a call-up to the national side, but unfortunately for the South American country, their eligibility information seems to incorrectly come from Football Manager. “Bolivia has contacted me,” Aguilar told Goal. “It’s something quite strange though (laughs)....

Prior to the team’s game against the New York Islanders, each player donned warmup jerseys honoring one of the team’s many legends (goaltender Carey Price wore Jacques Plante’s sweater, for example) and the franchise even invited a few of those legends to join in the festivities as well.
