10 Ways To Use Up Leftover Easter Eggs

10 Ways To Use Up Leftover Easter Eggs

If your kids got 5 million Easter eggs, like ours often do, try using up some of that chocolate in one of these recipes! Leftover Easter eggs? Leftover? Is there really such a thing? As organized as I am with list-making and food shopping (yes, I plan my food a week in advance, and will re-write my shopping list in aisle order), I purposely don’t organize myself well when it comes to Easter.…

I love using stuff up, like an entire lipstick or a box of food I don’t eat often. I’ve also got a lot of shit I don’t use anymore that sits in the back of my pantry. So I’m making a self challenge to use them all up!

I started writing a check list of all those things, and I’m actually kinda excited lol

There’s like 10 lipsticks in colors I’m not really into anymore, old RAW Meal powder with a few scoops left, different types of flour [this means I get to bake shit!], and a bunch of other random food products that are taking up room on my shelf. It’s going to be so satisfying to use up this stuff AND cross it off my check list! haha When did I get excited over this kind of stuff? :p

Thirteen-year-old spends parents’ $32,000 on amusement park rides

A 13-year-old boy in Chongqing, in south west China, squandered 210,000 yuan (approx. 32,000 US dollars) parents’ pension in just four months on fun and games, according to Chongqing Morning News on Thursday.

NOT KEPT IN A BANK

The money was meant to have been used for his parents’ pension, and represents almost 10 times the average annual disposable income in China.

The parents stored the money at home, a huge amount of money by Chinese standards, and carefully wrapped it in paper and stored it in safe secret place. But the boy, named Wu Di, discovered the hidden cash and reportedly spent it all on amusements parks and spas with his friends.

According to staff at the amusement parks, Wu reportedly spent up to 10,000 yuan (approx. 1,500 US dollars) each time he visited.

RIDING ROLLERCOASTERS WHILE OFF “SICK”

Wu seemed to have indulged in four months of pure pleasure. In order to play, he even used his father’s phone to text his teachers saying he was on “sick leave,” and then deleted the message thread in case that his father found it out.

Finally, Wu’s father found what his son was up to and took him to a local police station in the hope that the money could be retrieved.

TRYING TO GET THE MONEY BACK

At first Wu Di confessed to the police that he had started spending his parents’ money since February but a staff member at the amusement park Wu frequented said that Wu had actually started coming to the park playing from last December.  

Wu’s father, a 63-year-old man, told the Chongqing Morning News that the money came from a land requisition compensation case, and he had planned to use the money to support him and his wife as a pension for the rest of their lives but now it has all been used up.

With the help of local police, Wu’s father has retrieved 8,000 yuan (approx. 1,240 US dollars) but he has still a long way to go for the remaining sum.

WHAT THE EXPERTS THINK

Chen Ye, a lawyer from Chongqing Kangyu Law Firm, suggested that the family could take legal action. Chen argues that under Chinese law a 13-year-old should not be able to spend such a huge amount of money without his parents’ consent.

A professor in family education, Xiao Hengli, from the Chongqing Xiantong Family Education Research Center, believed the child’s behavior may result from his father spoiling him due to the large age gap between the child and his father. And he also advised that parents should give their children an appropriate view on consumption.
