Hey, remember when we wrote about Character AI? TLDR; it's a cool website where you can chit-chat with personas of celebs, fictional characters from movies and books, and brainy bots such as librarians and therapists 📚👩‍🏫. It was a hit, and here’s the latest scoop: Character AI just got a voice lift. Check it out!

Cookbook Chaos? There’s an App for That 📲

Ok, how many cookbooks do you own? And how many have you actually cooked your way through. I thought so.. 😭

Eat Your Books is website that helps you organize and search your cookbook collection. If you own a mountain of cookbooks or magazines and find it challenging to remember which recipe is in which book, this service can be a game-changer.

Users start with telling Eat Your Books which books and magazines they own. The service then creates your virtual library. Once your library is created, you can easily search through your collection with ingredient, recipe name, or other keywords.

Eat Your Books can be particularly useful for those who love to cook and have an extensive collection of culinary books but need help to manage them efficiently and digitally.

So, dive into your digital library and rediscover the joy of cooking with ease. Happy cooking!

One Bag to Rule Them All 🧳

While men ponder about the Roman Empire, women dream about that one travel bag to rule all bags 🤔. You know THAT ONE BAG - practical but not super ugly, can fit your laptop, your water bottle, has a front pocket for easy access, and space for myriad other things, but NOT a backpack, YET can become one if needed 🎒? Is it just me?

If you're with me, here it is: $20 bag on Amazon 💸.

It's ideal for travel ✈️, work 💼, school 🏫, made of water-repellent fabric. It can store your laptop, has a built-in USB port 🔋, multiple compartments to help organize essentials. For travel, it has a luggage strap so you can attach it to a rolling luggage, making airport navigation easier(you deserve that). The opening of the bag is wide and made durable with a steel frame.

Also, it has two water bottle pockets AND an option of carrying the bag like a backpack 🎒. All that for $20? Too good to pass on. Amazon reviewers say that they've had the bag for a while and it refuses to die 💪. This is the bag to be used and abused.
