EVERYTHING IS EXPENSIVE

Candle-gate continues on today's episode. Has Tyler replaced the one he broke yet? It's hard when he's been so busy on all the projects around the farm, including a pool!  Kelly and Lizz talk about all the tariff drama from last week and how it turned out to be nothing, at least for now. But there is still plenty to talk about in the car industry, specifically the used car market. Bottom line, everything is expensive right now.  Speaking of expensive, how is it you can have $75 worth of groceries and still not have an entire meal? It's time to normalize to having just a main dish for a meal and not all the sides. Kelly blames the three-compartment kid's plates and is ready to throw them all out.  Last week on the podcast, Kelly and Lizz talked about all the scary things in your food and home products that everyone on the internet tries to warn you about. It can all feel so overwhelming, so today they are sharing the simple switches they made that helped them sleep better at night.  There is big news for The Car Mom family as Kelly got her CPST recertification while doing some good in the community. But even bigger news, Lizz is in the process of getting her CPST certification as well! This leads right into a big Industry News story on the Consumer Reports infant car seat tests. Is it time to worry?  Finally, the biggest story of the day - The Car Mom Car of the Year top 4 finalists have been announced! Did your favorite make the cut?
