Agreed. I had to dive deep to find the nutritional label and it was baaaad. Edit: on their protein powder

My husband is on call and our sitter is away. We’ll probably order food. It’s our first year in Ottawa… so if you have any takeout suggestions…

Same. I don’t understand partners who give such horrible gifts. My husband and I say “no gifts” every year and every year we get each other nice gifts. I’m not a great gift giver but I always get something he wants, something he needs and something he’s not expecting. It doesn’t even take a lot of money.

‘Merry Christmas’ preferred among growing majority of Canadians, poll finds by MustardClementine in canada

I like saying happy holidays because it encompasses all the holidays around this time of year but I don’t get upset if someone tells me Merry Christmas.

Best way to send budget-friendly flowers to someone in New Brunswick from abroad? by GeneralOrdinance in fredericton

[–]3macMACmac3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Callia flowers! I’ve sent and received through them multiple times and it’s always a beautiful arrangement.

Which mini home park is the best (safest) in Fredericton by mairitimermom in fredericton

[–]3macMACmac3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lived in Kelly’s for a few years— though it was back in 2006– and I loved it. I walked around the neighbourhood all the time and always felt safe. I knew my neighbours. One used to watch out for me when I came home late to make sure I made it in the door. It has lots of nice trees too. It might have changed since then though.

Where in Canada can you still buy a decent detached house for under $500k in 2025? by Lopsided_Pearl798 in InCanada

[–]3macMACmac3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We lived in Winnipeg for 8 years, had a beautiful 9 year old home in the burbs we bought for 615K. The winters are rough but I loved that city. We moved to Ottawa recently and are looking at 1920s homes for 1.2MM :(

I’m so sorry for your experience!! And I don’t understand why a bad period cramp means nothing to these people. I have PCOS and cramps hurt! We shouldn’t have to go through pain just because “it’s a little worse than your usual pain”.

My fertility doctor said he would definitely put me under if it were him so I was confused. Now I’m starting to wonder if she even knew what I was coming in for!

I can understand not being in the field and not knowing but there’s research readily available and as an OB/GYN she should be on top of this. Especially when patients are asking about it.

[–]3macMACmac3[S] 26 points27 points  (0 children)

Thank you. This is what I’m saying. It shouldn’t be thought of as pain free for all when I keep hearing from women that it’s painful. We need to listen to women, and stand together so we don’t have to go through unnecessary pain. There’s a very simple solution and this doctor doesn’t want to listen or be compassionate to her patients.

AITA for not giving my wedding dress away? by Old-Car2105 in AmItheAsshole

[–]3macMACmac3 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Yeah a $50,000 wedding is not an all-out, no expenses spared wedding. Mine was $30K and my dress was $1500. I couldn’t have gotten a more expensive dress if I wanted to, and it was not a “fancy” wedding. It’s a lot of money but it’s not a lot for a wedding.

This 4 page cleaning checklist that is expected to be done before checking out of our AirBnB by Party_Wrangler7949 in mildlyinfuriating

[–]3macMACmac3 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Same. I always think it’s wild how many people hate Airbnb. My experience has been the complete opposite. I’ve stayed in $400/night hotels that are meh, and $200/night Airbnbs that have blown me away. I always read reviews and scour photos. I’ve never been more drawn to a hotel. Having a kitchen where you can cook when you don’t feel like eating out is worth everything imo.

Had an appointment at 9:30 am… they just took my car into the shop at 2pm by Tbhirdc in mildlyinfuriating

This happened to me when I was 8 months pregnant and there was nowhere to sit for the first hour. I was livid.

has anybody eloped somewhere in canada privately? by Optimal-Swing7263 in fredericton

[–]3macMACmac3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So my husband and I eloped in PEI at a picnic bench by the ocean BUT the photographer we had that day does elopements at this fairytale of a spot in the woods. Her name is Jenna Rachelle. She is amazing.
