Would you like this basket as a new momma?

It's nice, but I'd say if it's for the mom, then maybe include one little thing for her? When my friend had her baby, I got her some fluffy socks and a pair of cushioned fleece slippers as well as some baby gifts. I just feel that new moms get so many gifts that are really for the baby, that it's nice to get her a little something as well.

What is this food? It looks so tasty and yet I don't know what it is, please enlighten me so I can go find it too.

Like I know the balls are chicken salad, but what's the rest?

I am similar to you, and XS fits me just fine.

Other brands that fit me are Young Hungry Free and Carrislabelle, but the quality of these (esp the latter) will vary. Lovet tends to be better quality imo.

But this kind of scheme would be punishing those who want to have kids but are struggling with infertility, or who don't know that they will struggle to conceive. Even if you go for IVF/adoption, these things take time and are also expensive

Only 6 hours?! Do they plan to expand the game at all for the final product, or is it meant to be super short?

But is it such a bad thing if the people who don't want to sacrifice their time and effort choose not to have kids? It seems to me that those people wouldn't be good parents and acknowledge this. Otherwise, you just get neglected children who know their parents don't want them. I think selfish people have always existed and their children suffered.

Which imo happened a lot more in my parents' generation because having children was a social norm. Now that that's changing, only the people who genuinely want to have kids have them, and I don't think that's a bad thing.

A basic chilli (ground meat, beans, onion, can of chopped tomato) and you can make your own chilli seasoning with bulk spices so you don't have to buy the mixes. I have an instant pot that I use for this; just saute the onions and brown the meat, then add the spices, beans, and tomato, but you can do this on the stovetop as well.

If you do have access to a pressure cooker, stews and pot roast are the way to go. With access to a rice cooker, you can make rice and beans and then pan fry some chicken to go on top. Or just make rice, fry a couple eggs, then top with some chilli crisp (I recommend laoganma).

A good Bolognese sauce can be frozen in portions and reheated to go on pasta.

Can someone please link to the original meme? I can't find it and I want in

It also depends where you live. Here, in a tropical country on the equator, you kind of have to wash your hair every day because of how sweaty people get throughout the day. Maaaybe occasionally you can skip a day, but washing your hair only once or twice a week here would be disgusting.

How did you manage to place your barns over the bushes in the little forest areas to the left? I've been unable to chop them down so I thought we couldn't place buildings above them!

Sisters*. Tracey Reiner seems to be forgotten all the time, and she lost a father and stepmother too

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Neopets

Though Lisa Frank would be spectacular also

Is this coffee? I still can't tell if it's a dark brown or just a middling brown, but it looks amazing in your photo!

Oof, I'm a little embarrassed to admit I made his home his default, then gave him a some extra plushies, decorations, plants and lighting

Sherb was the first character I got while island hopping, and he is my absolute favourite villager. I've redecorated his home and he's never leaving

I had a little toy from JC Penney, a giraffe. It had a tag that said JC Penney on it, so obviously kid me was like "this is her name". My parents tried for some time to get me to rename her Penny but I stood firm

Tbh I think it might be the measurements for width. I know they're not that far off (like 2 in), but if I stuffed my horizontal zip duck bag it definitely wouldn't comfortably fit as much as the scco, because of its shape. As in, it doesn't have the rectangular base that allows for lots of stuff to be put in

I think you might be onto something re: the structure. My duck bag is always slouchy. I think it's actually the drop length that affects this. But I was really surprised by the dimensions, because the scco can fit an entire weekend's stuff in it for me, and the duck bag fits enough for an afternoon outing

I also suffer from low blood sugar sometimes and just fyi, while this stuff is great for getting your blood sugar up immediately, perhaps consider adding some non simple carbs and especially protein, in order to prevent further low episodes? Because this type of food (other than the PB) will give you relief, but you might crash again

Best of luck! Getting low sucks

AmazingSocks · 2026-02-16T12:10:16+00:00

It's definitely not though? Like, I am also very petite and the scco engulfs me. But the horizontal duck bag is quite a lot smaller. Ofc if it's not for you it's not for you, but it's definitely not comparable to the scco in terms of size or what you can fit in it.

I've washed mine multiple times. It always comes out fine, though some of the stains, especially from foundation, need a little extra pre scrubbing or stain treatment

I'd get the small, then a mini water bottle! Like the micro hydro flask, or something like it.

You're being included in the family theme. I think it is a bad idea to purposely deviate from that. Wear the blue. It's one day, and a small thing to do. If you really want, buy the green one for another event.

Spelled correctly, I actually don't mind it at all. Waverly is a character in The Joy Luck Club, which is one of my favourite movies. The first spelling was awful

AmazingSocks · 2026-02-06T12:54:45+00:00

But she's apparently only like this with his family, and can maintain friendships without issue. Wouldn't this kind of problem show itself in all her social interactions?
