This cannabis startup pioneered “rapid onset” gummies

Most people prefer to smoke cannabis but that isn’t an option if you’re at work or in public.

That’s why we were so excited when we found out about Mood’s new Rapid Onset THC Gummies. They can take effect in as little as 5 minutes without the need for a lighter, lingering smells or any coughing.

Nobody will ever know you’re enjoying some THC.

We recommend you try them out because they offer a 100% money-back guarantee. And for a limited time, you can receive 20% off with code FIRST20.

🐈 Adoptable Pet of the Week: Jay

Meet Jay! Jay is a handsome little man who is finally ready to venture off into his very own loving forever home. He initially came into the shelter as a very shy and nervous little guy who spent some time in a loving foster home while working on his socialization skills. He has made great strides and has blossomed into a typical active, social, and goofy kitten who is always on the go. He enjoys pets from his favorite people and absolutely LOVES being brushed! He is also a very food and treat motivated boy which is a great way to earn his trust. Most days you will find this energetic boy exploring his surroundings, chasing around his toys, zooming around the house with his kitty friends, and hopping up in his cat tree to get a good look at everything before he's off running around again. Jay is a resident at Coulee Region Humane Society »

Wild Child is a thoughtfully designed indoor play space mainly tailored to children under the age of 8, but also to those that have a little extra energy. With multiple climbing structures and energy exerting, interactive play areas, your littles are sure to be tuckered out after a couple hours here! Not only is this space designed for kiddos, but also with parents and caregivers needs in mind too. Let's face it, parenting is hard. There's no other way to say it, but we are here to help ease the weight of raising little humans. Come sit and relax, enjoy a coffee, meet some new friends.
