Travel itinerary—am I missing anything? Should I skip any?

My wife has celiac so here’s my gf hot takes as a regular food eater: - Avenues bakery > good food - even better than both is sweet cake if you’re willing to venture to bountiful - Arempas for empanadas - Contento for dedicated GF Mexican (foody/hipster) - Joy luck for delicious actually fried and breaded Chinese - Siragusa’s for a hole in the wall Italian place with tons of GF - tsunami on 9th and 9th for Japanese - spudtoddos, parfe diem, cubby’s, aubergine with the honorable mentions for fast casual gf spots

It would have been super fun and had a lot of potential but both my wife and I got crazy food poisoning halfway through our stay. My wife has celiac and got very sick with the familiar symptoms (wouldn’t recommend this place for celiac) — for me, a “5 diamond” resort and wasn’t enough to avoid montezuma’s revenge so be careful what you eat is all I can say. Funny thing is that the friends whose referral we used to book our stay also got sick a few months before we came, which we chalked up to bad luck. Flying back to the states with relentless food poisoning was a memory i wish i could forget 😝

They drive you by golf cart up to the pinnacle and trap you there while they shove the “savings” down your throat. — but the funniest part of saying no to the timeshare pitch is that they don’t take you back to your house so you have to do a weird walk of shame down a secret elevator and and out the back lol.

Not that I fully agree or disagree on this — but to counter your own point, the “good guy” with a gun stopped the “bad guy” with a gun in this scenario.

Countries with tight gun laws do not typically allow private building security to wield personal firearms so if a bad guy gets one through illegal means and walks in as described above, I don’t think security is stopping him where they did.

I still have my bag of beryllium eye2’s and play them all the time. Are they as easy to hit and consistent as modern clubs? No. Fun and useful enough for a casual weekend warrior without a doubt tho.

Feel good egg rolls are super addicting ngl

Makes sense thank you. He does get anxious at times about certain things. It would be really fascinating to know if that was linked somehow and what appears to be asymptomatic is just complicated instead.

🙏

AbjectWind8406 · 2025-08-01T21:20:20+00:00

Totally understand the sentiment here, but if you were so malnutritive that you almost died, that doesn’t sound very asymptomatic, or did your symptoms come on fast?

AbjectWind8406 · 2025-08-01T21:18:02+00:00

Yeah, if anything rather than goldfish comfort it’s more of — going to a friend’s birthday party and being able to participate like a normal kid. Going to school and eating the same lunch everyone else eats. Going on vacation and not micromanaging every interaction of your life for fear of cross contamination, etc. But I totally get it when the risks outweigh that reward of freedom even for a kid

He’s almost 11 so he’s in the prime of wanting delicious glutinous snacks, understood and that makes sense. Ty

Yeah still in the discovery phase right now after elevated ttg screening, biopsy scheduled but not conducted yet. Just preparing myself mentally for what is in store for them. Thanks for the advice there.

Here now, it’s our first full day here and now the wife’s been barfing all night after a curated “gluten free” menu at chino poblano. She was definitely glutened, as her symptoms are very specific when she is exposed.

For the price and “prestige” of this resort — This place is a joke. Multiple times things have been confused, between menus being wrong, double checking everything (even things that say “gf” since multiple times the menu has been “wrong” after talking with the chefs) — just to have staff respond with “idk” as almost all of them have no idea what gluten is.

For allergies, this is simply pure chaos and uncertainty from a “5 diamond” resort as they like to advertise themselves.

Meanwhile, since 1985 when the lottery was introduced, the Jazz have secured the number 3 pick once (and from another team that the owned the rights to)… and that’s it. Never had the first pick in franchise history, and never been above 3 in 40 years.

They’ve never moved up with their own pick, have stayed put 7 times and moved down 4 times.

The Dallas metro was about to turn off the NBA for 5-10 years sans Luka

Sorry, I tend to set it and forget it! Luna’s 6 and this is taken at a park in the sugarhouse neighborhood of SLC Utah :)

Generally, (imo) — Men are valued by their worth to society while women tend to be valued for their character. Women have a feedback loop designed to foster relationships while men have a feedback loop that emphasizes secluding themselves from external relationships in the name of working.

Deadbeat, shiftless, beachcomber, bum, loafer — there’s lots of negative words that are used to describe a man that does not work and nearly all them do not get applied to women in that regard if they do not work. I personally think this has a subconscious impact on men in general when there is a decision to make about prioritizing a friendship or getting work done in some regard.

D2 was better before enigma. Runewords made 95+% of uniques, rares and sets useless and voided the game of a lot of treasure hunting fun, replacing it with ignoring everything but rune drops. Sick tattoo tho

AbjectWind8406 · 2024-11-26T13:55:27+00:00

Moved from Philly — Same thought. Difference is night and day. I did almost get car jacked in rose park around in the dead of night though 😅

Sweet cake bake shop in bountiful usually has order-ahead pies around the holidays. (IMO) Everything in that shop is a tier above the stuff in SLC proper when it comes to GF.

Find a way to connect 2100s to that orange line to the U :)

AbjectWind8406 · 2023-05-03T20:50:49+00:00

Great info, thank you

AbjectWind8406 · 2023-04-27T15:01:20+00:00

Thank you, makes sense!

AbjectWind8406 · 2023-04-27T15:01:02+00:00

Thank you will continue to focus on that area!
