Surprising Words

😆 What does a potato have to do with a winning team? It’s a Temu potato! Temu is the top-ranking breakout shopping app with more than 200 categories of products. The philosophy? Temu it: “Team up, price down.” While there is some concern over its Chinese ownership, its efficiency and product range seems to win out. I mean who doesn’t love a potato with personality?!

💥Coach Prime (Deion Sanders) fries his positive potato frequency into luxury frites! Granted, his Colorado Buffaloes took a 42-6 thrashing against the Oregon Ducks. Coach Prime simply accepted the reality, but reframed the rhetoric. “I believe in ya’ll, all ya’ll,” read his post-game instagram. He doesn’t throw shade, he just wears shades. I can’t wait to witness the resilience of this team! https://www.wsj.com/sports/football/deion-sanders-coach-prime-colorado-4816ddfe

 💚Let’s extend our team vibes from potato and prime, to another '“P”: Pickleball. What’s the key to a winning Pickleball Team? Ask South Floridians! Miami is considered the most pickle-ball obsessed city. https://www.solitairebliss.com/blog/states-most-obsessed-with-pickleball But, honestly, I can’t imagine that the West Palm area is that far behind. At the Palm Beach Gardens Tennis and Pickleball center they even run a sort of nightclub-like event with lights and music, called “XGLOsive Pickleball.” Plus, two international/world Pickleball tournaments are headed to this venue late this fall!

 😇 People! Could that be the highest purpose of any team? I know it’s the focus of one the favorite teams I’m a part of: The Vous Church Connect Corner! Come see us in the Miami Design District sometime—We just turned 8 😄 

✍️ Teaming up for help somebody succeed is so satisfying. A lot of our colleagues did that to help a friend win a much-deserved publishing contract with Amazon. If you’re into sci-fi or fantasy, why don’t you find out why “Troll” by Ashley C. Harris won this honor!
