Growing up means starting to love some boring old adult stuff!
Millennials and Gen X’ers are talking about all the stuff they thought was mind-numbingly boring as a kid, but they love now! Here’s the top 10:
1. Slicing into a perfectly ripe avocado.
2. Bird-watching.
3. Instant Pots.
4. Organizing. And, by extension, the Container Store.
5. Alone time. Sitting in silence . . . doing nothing.
6. Paying bills.
7. Checking items off to-do lists.
8. Puzzles. Some people even get amped about framing them afterward.
9. High-quality bedding. And spending time SLEEPING in that bedding.
10. Going to the grocery store or a place like CVS and getting a great deal on something. Someone said, “Swiping my loyalty card . . . and watching the total drop.”
11. Walking into a Costco.
12. Cleaning.
13. Yardwork.
14. Getting up early on a Saturday to go to the local farmer’s market.
15. Leftovers.
I’m surprised leftovers aren’t at number 1!
