...But trying them on without knowing what to look for is the problem. A fitting is designed to show you what you need to look for and how a bra should fit. Sure, once you’ve been had a fitting and you’ve been shown you can make your own adjustments to fit size and shape at the time and might never need to go in for a…

I guess... but a good fitting should show you how you fit in various bra-styles and sizes and how to adjust your sizing depending. I’ve never gone into a bra fitting and then left being like “I have one size in all sizes and this is what I’m going to buy all the time forever.” I leave knowing what a good fit feels…

I slept with them for 3 nights in a hotel in Paris... Didn’t realize until the 3rd night and this after I’d done an inspection when I first arrived. It was the first 3 nights of a 14 day vacation. I barely slept again until like day 12 when I was reasonably sure they weren’t in my luggage... and even that was some…

Ha! That was my first reaction too...

Ha Yes! I still miss smarties before the natural die. They were so brightly coloured. Now they’re all pastel...

I mean, I guess... if you run into the mold problem. If not, you have perfect temp maple syrup whenever you need it. We keep ours in the fridge because Mr.Z662 is really into food safety... but I would leave it out no qualms. I grew up with it that way though...

Noooo! ‘Banana’ below has an uncle who produces maple syrup and says you can just skim the mold and boil it if that happens, FYI.

We luckily never had a mold issue... Glad to know if I do that I can just skim & boil...Maybe, just maybe, I can convince Mr.Z662 to leave it out. It’s always much more convenient at room temperature so whenever we are having pancakes I need to pull it out of the fridge and let it warm up.

Is this from personal experience? If so, that sucks hard. I’ve never had that happen with maple syrup... my mother still keeps it room temp in the cupboard - at minimum 34 years of no mold.

We keep our open maple syrup in the fridge - as per Mr.Z662s recommendation and he seems pretty passionate about it, so that’s where it goes. As a child we never once kept our maple syrup in the fridge. It was always in cupboard or just out on the counter. We used to get it from a family friend whose father produced…

Oh StillCopperboom... I’m so sorry to hear this :(. I know I told previously about some friends who had been trying for quite a bit of time. I also have several friends who have miscarried more than once. It is very common, but still heartbreaking. It’s early in your journey - try to keep your chin up, but definitely…

I wonder if I could get this to fly with her... I feel like she would be very upset she had to wear regular clothes to bed. But damn if that wouldn’t solve this problem!

Whyyyyyyyyyyyyy? What is going through their heads at these junctures?

Right? I get up at around 10min to 6. I get ready quickly (10 minutes)... generally having showered the night before (I hate doing that, but the almost 3yo means I have zero time to do that in the morning if I actually want *read: hope for* a decent sleep). I wrangle the kid up and get her dressed. That takes me…

Aww... I’m sorry to hear this. It can be hard. I have friends who were trying for almost 3 years, they were about to start IVF when it happened spontaneously. My best friend is expecting her first and it took 8 months. It’s a crap shoot.
Up to a year is considered normal. This does nothing to alleviate your feelings,…

Is this an unpopular opinion? I mean... I love the business card scene and will forever love the business card scene and I think Bale was great IN it. But it 100% it tried hard to be ‘inspired’ in both formats and it came off as a try-hard. 

There are so many things that are wrong with this post... but worst of all of them is “#swamp #thing.” No, junior, no... It’s #swampthing.

Agreed.

I am. But I really hate underwear lines and my thighs do not do well in any kind of spanx-style-anything. Always makes them look funny in tight clothing because there is some kind of thigh bulge or they roll up a bit. That said, it’s not like I always wear thongs. Only when called for. Today I’m wearing a pair of…

In part because this is GOOP, but also because this is SUCH an afterthought to appease investors, I just can’t trust that the fact checking will be valid. You can find a lot of BS online support for insubstantive health claims that parades as legitimate medical/scientific work. Without the proper skillset to vet this…
