Here’s how the friend group meal delivery hack works.

So, this week on her night to make meals for four families including her own, Allison shopped for the ingredients and prepared a giant batch of — wait for it — breakfast pasta. More on that particular choice in a moment.
First, it’s important to note that while she delivers her homemade meal to each family on her night, on the other nights of the week, Allison’s family does absolutely nothing.

Her friends plan meals for her family, and then hand deliver them to her front door. That means less shopping, less cooking, and more leftovers. The mom also claims that her family saves money because they eat at home most nights, and always have leftovers.
Many commenters were not fans of a dish called breakfast pasta.
The merits of this friend group meal delivery hack aside, the aspect of this mom’s TikTok that most commenters found the most interesting was the meal that Allison picked that week.

Commenters said things like, “Someone making me breakfast pasta is the exact reason I wouldn’t sign up for something like this.”

“Breakfast pasta… did you get this recipe from Buddy the Elf?” questioned someone else.

And, hilariously (and relatably for many of us), other commenters joked about how large this creator’s social circle is.
“Step one: make friends,” one TikTok user noted. “People have three friends?” asked another more solitary person.
Other folks felt like this approach of prepping meals for multiple families was just too much work. “I don’t even want to cook for my own family,” commented one such person.

Meanwhile, even more commenters demanded to see this meal hack in action — and our faithful TikTok creator was only too happy to oblige.

When Allison’s friend Megan was about to arrive for her night of meal delivery, Allison took followers along as she greeted Megan, who was all too happy to show off her admittedly delicious looking hot dishes, at her minivan.

Many commenters couldn’t help but weigh in that on Megan’s night, it sure seemed like she had a lot of work to do fix all that food and then drive it around to three different houses.

“It is a bit of work to make and deliver the foods but so worth it to have dinner brought to you the other nights without lifting a finger,” the creator affirmed.
Meanwhile, if you want to follow along with Allison, she promises to share her breakfast pasta recipe soon. OK, we’ll be waiting! Here’s hoping that the creator redeems herself when she shares the controversial recipe.

What happened to Krayzie Bone?
Anthony is in the hospital because he suffers from an autoimmune condition known as sarcoidosis. The disease is inflammatory and causes the immune system to overreact to perceived threats, leading to pockets of inflamed tissue called granulomas.
Reports suggest that Anthony had a CAT scan that revealed one of his arteries was leaking into his lung, but surgery designed to stop the problem was not a success.

Now, reports suggest that Anthony is on a breathing machine and has been sedated.
This serious condition is genuinely worrisome, and it’s unclear when or if Anthony will ever wake up from his medically induced coma. As a result of his severe condition, many celebrities and others who knew Anthony well or were even just big fans have offered their thoughts and prayers following the news that he was hospitalized.

“Prayers to Krayzie, man!” LeBron James wrote in a post on Twitter.
DJ Paul, an accomplished musician in his own right, added an even lengthier statement. “Please pray for my brother Kray. We was just in the lab Wednesday recording, having fun, drinking his new IPA. This is unbelievable,” he wrote.
There are clearly many people invested in Anthony’s recovery, however long it may take.

The group has earned its reputation as one of the biggest names in hip hop, and worked with everyone from Tupac to Biggie over the course of their long career in the world of music.
Now, the group’s other members are worried about their friend, and hoping he can pull through following this hospitalization. Sarcoidosis is a serious illness, and it’s one that is difficult to treat because it is a disease of the autoimmune system. The coming days will be crucial in understanding where Anthony’s condition ultimately goes from here, and whether he’s able to make a recovery or not.

The call prompted Tom Toronto, president of Bergen County’s United Way, the company that runs Abigail’s residence, to speak out in her defense.
“She has a disorder. She has anxiety,” he explained to The Times. “She had a meltdown. Then the world we live in took over, and it became something entirely different than what it actually was.”

Abigail’s September 2023 comments were in response to Ijeoma’s July 2023 lawsuit against Abigail and Victoria’s Secret.

Ijeoma’s GoFundMe and additional content surrounding her initial video caused many people following the story to raise their eyebrows. Several users, including Kasko Xero Vlogs stated she was using the incident for fame and money.

The entrepreneur’s attorney also believed it’s her client’s “right” to discuss the situation however she sees fit, especially after being deemed a liar by many in the Milburn community.
