Hello. Welcome to Stories Podcast. I'm your host, Amanda Weldon. Today's story is called The Sorcerer's Chocolate, an adaptation of the story The Magic Bon Bons by L. Frank Baum, written for you by Daniel Hines. We have Stories Podcast merch available at storiespodcast.com/shop. We're also on Cameo for all of your personalized video message needs, and don't forget to follow us on Instagram @storiespodcast. If you send us a drawing of your favorite scene or character, we'll share it on our feed. Hang tight through this quick ad break, and then we'll start the show. It's always been hard to keep track of everything in our family. We have paper calendars and Post-Its, a calendar on the phone, and then I even have a planner too. My husband is the same way, all over the place, and it feels like we never know where we need to be and when we need to be there. Our new Skylight calendar has made it so much easier. It syncs your entire family's schedule onto a sleek digital display so you can focus on more important things, like spending time with your loved ones. Skylight Calendar is designed to bring families together for more time. This all-in-one digital smart calendar syncs seamlessly with Google Calendar, Apple Calendar, Outlook, and more, giving you customizable views for daily, weekly, or monthly planning. You can manage events, chores, and grocery lists while assigning colors for each of your family members, which is my favorite. I love color coding and making things beautiful, and this calendar is very good at that.
