Nothing can ever replace post-its for reminders of tasks, sorry techies! Very impressive lady...but the lead photo is super distracting for how poorly it’s photoshopped like vaseline was smeared on an iphone camera. It’s kinda insulting to Heather.

Here here. We wake up and talk over breakfast, we have most weekends together, and at night we talk through dinner and sometimes up to an hour before passing out. If something important or hilarious happens, yeah we will text each other, but you should be able to go 10 hours without knowing your partner still loves…

That last picture looks fantastic. But, nothing will convince me to not use my instant pot to pressure cook (followed by quick broil) and have tender delicious ribs ready in 30 min.

It’s so wonderful that we are creating jobs for lawyers and financial advisors with student loan debt to help other students navigate student loan debt. What a robust economy!

Oh my god. This is the first event in my adult life that I am offended, hurt, and excluded by having not been invited to attend. I want it allllll.

I wasted $2,400 going on my employer’s insurance for a year when I was 25. My very small employer never explained the coverage or gave me any documents about my benefits, and I was too embarrassed to push for information since they were so dismissive any time I asked for anything. So I paid the $200 a month (not bad)…

Same advice to marrieds: do stuff alone! Being alone and doing things solo isn’t weird, whether it’s temporary or permanent. There would probably be less an “us v them” if marrieds and singles were all just going about their day the same.

The weirdest thing is that I am really into cooking and know my family had dinner together every night, but I can’t recall even one dish my mother made growing up. I think it means she was a good cook? I remember my dad making us eat tripe soup and being so miserable facing tripe soup or “getting the belt” so mom wins…

Oh yes I do something similar. Sometimes I get sick of having to eat vegetables because it takes effort to make them tasty and I just want a grilled cheese. So I take whatever fresh vegetables I have, maybe some flax or some fruit, and just throw it in a blender with some ice and water and chug it down before my meal.…

I’ve only been to two starred restaurants and both accommodated one person’s food restrictions but making substitutions of entire dishes of the tasting menu. They were presented as “This course is... and for you, we have made a special xyz. Enjoy.” I wouldn’t expect anything less.

January recommends you plant a photographer to capture the moment

We were told for decades that breathing classes were worth the time, now OBGYNs are saying they’re harmful. We’re told to do kegels, now we’re told not to. So when I hear someone recommending that on top of continuing to work through the entire pregnancy, preparing for a new family member, and dealing with…

that sounds so yummy right now...like a soba noodle with sesame dressing

I don’t care what it’s called, but I would be pretty annoyed if I went into a shop to purchase a cookie and was corrected that it’s not a gingerbread man but gingerbread person. Only because it’s annoying to correct someone on something you made up on a whim in the face of a lifetime of it being called a “gingerbread…

FINE I misread your tone, sorry. I admit I’m the douche here...I’m protective of my bed water petri dishes apparently

it’s personal when you @me with bitchy sarcasm

You may be a lost cause, but don’t chime in with other people how to raise their kids if you can’t read a post. I didn’t say anything about what my kids would learn. It’s also not your place to tell a mom who works 50+ hours a week that it’s a “disservice” to not ensure that her kid has access to the type of language…

You’re not clever. It’s not not normal to take a glass of water at your bedside during the week then travel for work or leisure and come back. Given that people are engaging in the topic of discussion demonstrates that fact.

“the lack of a motivating force to push you along”

But why is mouth spit also summarily dismissed? Our dishwasher sterilizes our glasses, we drink some filtered water out of it and leave the glass for a week, the water will always smell bad and be cloudy.
