This hilarious daycare video shows the danger of telling your secrets to a toddler: They WILL tell everyone they know
Ah, kids. You spend so much time trying to coax that first “mama” out of your baby, and then all of a sudden they hit those toddler years and they just. Won’t. Shut. Up. Take it from the mom of the kid in this video, who decided to spill his guts at daycare and who serves as a reminder to toddler parents everywhere: tell them nothing you wouldn’t mind them repeating.
“My son’s daycare sent me this video,” the mom wrote in the caption. The video shows her son and another toddler sitting at a table, having a chat with one of their daycare supervisors.
“There’s period coming out of my mom’s ‘buddy,'” her son announces to the room. Then, seemingly remembering some key anatomy facts, he amends that statement: “My mom doesn’t have a ‘buddy.’ So, period comes out of her… out of her bum.”
All the props to the daycare worker, who not only managed to hold it together, but responded only with an extremely dignified, “Wow.” I would have been cry-laughing at this point, which is probably why I’m not a daycare worker.
Of course, the kiddo didn’t stop there. Mom had more personal business, and he was on a mission to tell it to the world.
“There’s hair and she has to shave her bum,” he continued, to which the poor daycare worker responded with a slightly more emphatic, “Oh. Wow.”
Undeterred, the toddler responds, very nonchalantly, “Yeah. She shaves it.”
Anyone who has a kid (or has ever interacted with one) knows that this kind of oversharing risk just comes with the territory. Kids have no filters, as the other moms in the comments showed.
“My son told his teacher and class, ‘My mom has to go to jail a lot,’ of course, he left out the Part that I work there as a correctional officer,” one commenter wrote. Another added, “My son once announced to everyone in the convenience store that I’m a lesbian which was odd because I’m not and I’m married to his dad.”
Italian submarine? Pastrami on rye? Classic BLT? Sandwiches are the perfect on-the-go lunch, park and picnic snack, not to mention, is a favorite meal option when you just don’t want to cook dinner that night. Good thing the Bay Area has some amazing delis. Here’s our must-stop spots whether you’re hitting up a play date or when you’re about to hit the road.
Clancey’s Market and Deli - Outer Sunset Clancey’s is a convenience store and deli and in true, old-school manner, doesn’t have a website but rather, uses Facebook instead. Our suggestion on what to nosh? Owner Sean and master sandwich maker Raul's "The Raging Cajun"—a must-try with cajun turkey and jalapenos. For the kids? Keep it classic with their BLT with avocado.
Submarine Center - West Portal This small, low-key Italian-style deli has perfected the combination of toasted bread and sauce—not too much and not too little. The roast beef is literally, "everyone's favorite."
Deli Board SF - SoMa What started as a catering business took off and became a very popular sandwich spot in the city. Their “Sando Boards” all come with pickles on the side (check out "The Board for daily specials). Our sando pick? The "Carlze"—Romanian pastrami, brisket, provolone, cherry peppers, pickles, cole slaw, Board sauce on a garlic french roll. And for the kids? The "Stephanie"—tuna salad, bacon, American cheeses, sprouts, pickles, Board sauce on a french roll.
Freddie’s Sandwiches - North Beach With more than 20 different sandwich combinations on the menu, there is definitely something for everyone here. The Italian Combo is a winner, being in North Beach and all. Picky eaters will love the simple ham and cheese that is big on flavor. We love their "Skip the line, order online" feature—clutch with hangry kids in tow.
Star Meats- Berkeley For quality meat on a roll, you can’t go wrong with a butcher shop and deli in one. Sandwiches change daily, depending on what's in store, and are available until sold out. Try the Raging Bull (turkey, salami and olives) on Sun., or the My Cousin Vinny (ham and mozzarella) on Tues. You can also call ahead to reserve a sandwich to guarantee you'll have your favorite before they sell out.
Cheese ‘N’ Stuff- Berkeley This East Bay deli is all about creating sandwiches that even the pickiest easter will love (there's a reason it's been voted 'Best Deli' since 1996!). Our favorite part? Sandwiches are stacked high with meat and cheese for the low price of $5. Now that’s hard to beat.
Luigi’s Italian Deli- Concord Luigi’s has been making sandwiches for over 40 years and is still going strong. We like the "Enrico Caruso" with roast beef and garlic mayo and the "Italian Dagwood" for a classic Italian sub while the kids will adore "Claire's Club Melt." They also have salads and fresh pasta which are equally delicious.
Bara’s Deli- San Leandro Family run since 1986, Bara’s deli is a favorite with East Bay families (and touted as East Bay's best kept secret—until now that is). The sandwiches are piled high, and classics like the Ruben and BLT are always a great choice. For specialty subs, check out "The Godfather" (Italian) and customer-inspired creations like the "Bam Bam" (roast beef and gouda) and the "Mario Brother" (meatball). For kids, you can't go wrong with the "Ultimate Grilled Cheese"—a grilled ciabatta filled with provolone, cheddar, muenster and havarti.
Best Delis on the Peninsula
The Sandwich Spot- Redwood City Whether you choose the weekly special, an on-the-menu item or get your daily veggies allowance with the Mean Lean Veggie Machine, all of the sandwiches at this hip and cool Redwood City deli are downright delicious. Make a special trip on Wed. for "Coco’s Tri-Tip" special.
Little Luca Specialty Shop- South San Francisco While the deli is unassuming on the outside, this small, family-owned shop is a favorite and always draws a queue. The subs are big (enough to share between two people or more) and the secret sauce—garlic and hot pepper—which really makes these subs stand out from the rest.
Golden 9th Deli- San Mateo For a no-fuss ham and cheese on white bread that both kids and adults will love, Golden 9th is your place (not to mention one of the friendliest owners around). The cheese to meat to bread ratio is spot on and while you won’t get fancy sandwich combos here, you're guaranteed the best tasting classic sandwiches bar none.
Two Cousins Deli- Belmont This family-owned business delivers sandwiches that are plentiful, and the chip wall is stacked with your favorite kind. We love the "Ham Pachino" and "Veggie Time" but they can also make a simple turkey and swiss for the kiddos. Bonus: they have breakfast sandwiches too.
Ike’s Love and Sandwiches- San Jose This beloved sandwich spot with locations all over the Bay Area had to make our list. Every location has a slightly different menu, and we love the funky decor and creative names and combinations. The "Steph Curry" is a turkey and BBQ sauce sandwich, "Reading Rainbow" is all about the colorful veggies, and the "Matt Cain" has won a "Fanwich Award" for best sports sandwich.
Beach Hut Deli- Morgan Hill With locations all over California, the deli decor alone will transport you to a sandy beach with surfboards and palm trees no matter how far from the ocean you may be. The sandwiches are fantastic, with creative names like "Surfin’ Bird," "Beach Comber" and "Santa Cruz." Grab a seat outside under an umbrella and pretend you’re on vacation.
California Sourdough- San Jose This San Jose deli has a pretty big following, with their classic sandwiches costing a $10 flat rate. Whether it’s roast beef, pastrami, or turkey, there's something for everyone in the family. Leave your credit card at home, this is a cash-only deli.
Crust- Milpitas For those sandwich lovers who are all about hot, freshly baked sourdough bread, check out this deli located in Milpitas. Know as one of the best in town, choose the turkey and salami sandwich known as "The Royal," and for the kids, order the "Three Cheese Ultimate."
Rozmary Kitchen- San Rafael Catch these sandwiches at the farmer’s market on Thur. and Sun., or at Midwife and the Baker on Fri. The menu is small, with just five items but somehow covers all the cravings. The "K-Town" is a roast beef and poblano kimchi combo that will have you coming back for seconds while "Noni’s Eggplant" with eggplant, tomatoes and burrata is a refreshing as it sounds. You just can’t go wrong.
Picnicky’s- Vallejo For a sandwich that is made exactly how you want and perfectly packaged to eat on the go, stop by Picnicky’s before your next road trip. Of course their specialty sandwiches like the "Grand Salami" or "Mr. Cowboy" are well worth the drive to Vallejo—road trip or not.
Davey Jones Deli- Sausalito We love a menu that is grouped by type of meat or veggies. And best part? The ingredients are fresh, thoughtfully sourced and "will you make you strong like a lion." We like the "Vulcan Wrap" for vegans and the "Standard" for brisket lovers.
Michael’s Sourdough- Novato Freshly baked sourdough bread with its own starter is made daily at this North Bay deli, taking these sandwiches to a whole other level. With locations in Novato and San Rafael, we recommend trying the "Golden Gate" (turkey and ham combo), or the "Dusty Dog" with chicken and apple sausage with swiss cheese on sourdough bread.

Many traditional Halloween activities are being modified or are on hold this year. Even if you are planning on staying in there are many ways to celebrate. DoorDash wants to help make Halloween special especially for those who may need it most — parents.
In a new ‘Dash-oween” survey of 1,000 parents, DoorDash found 84% of parents admit to stealing their kids’ Halloween candy. To help parents treat themselves this year without the highly-awaited candy haul from trick or treating outings this Halloween, DoorDash and Mars Wrigley are partnering to give parents a treat of their own.
On Halloween, families can get a free “Parents Only” candy bundle exclusively through 16 DoorDash DashMarts, a new type of convenience store by DoorDash offering both household essentials and local restaurant favorites across the country.
Here’s how it works
Simply open up your DoorDash app and select DashMart
Select your ‘Parents Only’ bundle and check out
Use promo code ‘PARENTS” at checkout to get your ‘Parents Only’ candy bundle for free* while supplies last
Your order will be delivered to your door – and watch out for your Ding-Dong-Dasher with contactless delivery
DoorDash is also offering customers $5 off a purchase of $20 or more at all DashMarts and any eligible convenience store when they add candy to their cart. The promo will run from October 28 through Halloween (10/31) while supplies last.
The Dash-oween “Parents Only” promotion will be exclusively available in DashMart locations across 16 cities in the US – Chicago, Minneapolis, Columbus, Cincinnati, Dallas, Salt Lake City, the greater Phoenix area, Redwood City, CA, San Diego, Baltimore, Denver, Sacramento, Los Gatos, CA, Houston, Tempe, AZ, and Concord, CA.
Slurpees and croissants? 7-Eleven is rolling out a new line of fresh baked goods. This will be the first time a national convenience store chain offers fresh pastries baked in stores nationally with a guarantee that they were never previously frozen.
The new menu items that will be rolling out include:
Lemon Poppy Seed Muffins
Chocolate Croissants
Halloween Cut Out Cookies
Chocolate Bretzels
Salted Caramel Cookies
Select stores will get new equipment that will allow them to produce a fresh new line of baked goods in key markets. The pilot will start in parts of Long Island, Florida and Texas, with plans to roll out in all future newly-constructed stores and within existing stores that can accommodate the equipment.
Put your Amazon app away and take a trip to the bank, because the online retailer’s formerly cashless IRL stores are now accepting the green stuff. The brick-and-mortar stores are changing their payment options, depending on where you live.
In April, the cashless-to-cash Amazon Go transition rumors started swirling. A company spokesperson confirmed to CNBC, that Go stores would start accepting additional types of payment at some point in the future––and the future is now!

Following backlash against the cashless payment-only method, Amazon reconsidered its Go checkout model. Even though the ability to scan, bag and leave without spending half your day wrangling kids in the check-out line sounds like bliss to many of us mamas, it also excludes some customers. Anyone without access to an Amazon account or without a credit or debit card can’t use the high-tech stores.
According to recent reports, Amazon’s newest (and twelfth) Go store will open in New York City this week—and it will accept cash. The store, located in Brookfield Place mall in Lower Manhattan, will have “entry associates” who scan cash payers in. After shopping, these customers can check out with an employee, pay cash and get a paper receipt. And, of course, you can still use the cashless option.
As of now the NYC Amazon Go store is the only one of the retailer’s brick-and-mortar shops that will accept cash, but expect more stores to roll out this option over time.
Why shop every grocery aisle when you could just go to a Whole Foods convenience store? The Amazon-owned grocery chain recently rolled out a small-format grab-and-go version of its full-scale shopping experience.
Whole Foods Market Daily Shop isn’t your regular grocery retailer. The shop, adjacent to a full-sized Whole Foods Market, operates from 6 a.m. to 11 p.m. daily and features everything from a build-your-own acai bowl station to a coffee bar, snacks, sandwiches, soups, salads, drinks, seasonal kombuchas and so much more.
Along with dressed-up convenience store staples (such as grab-and-go picks), Whole Foods Market Daily Shop also sells dairy essentials, grocery must-haves, flowers, cut fruit, Whole Body best sellers and local and baked in house goodies. As of now, you can only visit the oh-so-convenient convenience store at one location, in Chelsea, New York City.
If you’re a New Yorker, or are visiting the Chelsea area, this store is so worth checking out—especially if you’re into eating local. According to a Whole Foods spokesperson, as told to CSP Daily News, “With a local focus, Whole Foods Market Daily Shop opens carrying Gotham Greens, Balthazar breads, new York Bagel, Dunwell Doughnuts, Dough Doughnuts, By the Way Bakery cakes, Lilly’s cookies and more.”
No word yet if more of Whole Foods convenience stores are in the works, but we sure hope so!
