wonderful_pistacios_secert_service.jpg

With a not so subtle wink and nod, Paramount Farms’ Wonderful Pistacios is out with a new spot that has a little fun with the Secret Service sex scandal which occurred earlier this year. The ad is one of four commercial launched this week

The other three feature 1970s disco phenomenon The Village People; Brobee, the little green monster and drummer from Yo Gabba Gabba! and Sparky and Victor from Tim Burton’s animated monster movie Frankenweenie.

n its fourth season, the Wonderful Pistachios Get Crackin’ commercials have a bit of fun highlighting how various individuals cracks open a pistachio in their own unique way.

The Secret Service do it. And get fired for it. Wait, what? You mean this happened in real life? Oh come on! You can’t blame a guy for getting his nuts handled once in a while.

Grandparents who build real relationships with their grandchildren aren’t the ones who try hardest — they’re the ones who are most genuinely themselves in those relationships, who don’t perform grandparenthood but simply show up as a person the child finds worth knowing, and children are extraordinarily accurate detectors of the difference between someone who is interested in them and someone who is interested in the idea of being close to them

Psychologists explain that happiness after 60 often arrives not as a feeling but as an absence. The absence of pretending. The absence of urgency. The absence of the persistent low-grade fear that you’re falling behind a race that never existed.

I raised my children the way I was raised — with high standards, clear expectations and not much room for emotional mess — and spent my 60s learning that what I’d experienced as good parenting they had experienced as a home where being imperfect was quietly dangerous, and that the distance my youngest maintains isn’t rudeness or ingratitude, it’s just the amount of space she needed to finally feel safe
