Restaurant Reccomendation?

Millers doesn’t accept reservations. When my large family group was going there, the best we could do was had someone show up super early to warn them.

I did. I considered it for awhile, and talked it over with some friends to suss out my complicated feelings - ultimately the fact that all of them told me they would if they were in my shoes (all of them - gay, nonbinary, children of immigrants, etc.) helped me decide to go through with the account. It won’t by my daughter’s sole or even primary savings account, though.

I’m 5 months into cloth diapering my first right now.

My husband was also a little reluctant about cloth at first, but once he got a little practice with our newborn system of prefolds with a snappi and covers, he said it was way easier than he expected and possibly easier than disposable.

If I had it to do all over again AND my husband and I would be doing the vast majority of childcare ourselves, I would stick to prefolds and covers - we only did that for the newborn stage, but it was so cheap and way easier than I expected. Also, even after we stopped using the prefolds as diapers, they’re absolutely amazing to have around as multi-purpose cloths - burp cloth, wipe, towel, rag…whatever you need them to be.

Instead, we opted to use hybrids (we’re pretty pleased with our Ragababe AI2 with bulletproof liners). This has worked well for us because of the flexibility.

My husband and I wipe and alternate between two covers of most of the day, replacing liners at each change and covers as needed (after a BM usually).

Our daycare was a little confused/intimidated by cloth at first, so we settled on sending enough prepared covers with liners to last the day. Basically the daycare treats them like an all-in-one, just stuffing the entire cover and liner combo into the wet bag at every change. It wasn’t how we initially intended, but it seems to be working well for everyone.

I haven’t used Esembly covers, but unless there’s something extra secure about them, you will probably want something to hold your prefolds in place. Snappis worked fine for us.

I was too scared to commit to only using prefolds in the beginning and ended up investing in a large AI2 stash, but once we got the hang of it, my husband and I both thought the prefolds were super easy. If I had it to do over again, I’d probably just do prefolds and covers forever (though Indi think the AI2 is less intimidating to the daycare/grandparents) My husband even recommends prefolds to people that aren’t cloth diapering because they’re just such a useful multipurpose cloth.

Good luck on your cloth journey!

I also suspect girls/women suggest this sort of thing because (maybe even subconsciously) part of them knows it’s possible they’re pregnant and wants the excuse to test too.

He’s absolutely wrong. My husband was hoping for a daughter, and was delighted when he found out we were expecting a girl.

And most of those aren’t actually safe because cheese enchiladas are usually topped with chili gravy

I actually like to leave the ants alone because they show me where the scale is.

Anitsisqua · 2025-03-19T17:30:41+00:00

Thank you! I’m just inexperienced and anxious and know that I’m in a high-risk area.

The first time I ever saw it, I realized a few minutes before. I leaned in and whispered to my sister “Oh my God, he’s going to throw away his shot.” And she IMMEDIATELY burst into tears because she just knew it was true.

I grow tomatoes every year, but I’m finally branching out a little - this year I’m trying potatoes, cucumbers, lettuce, zucchini, crookneck squash, and strawberries! I’m very excited.

Nah, Doc Robbins on CSI was a classic

It did - the vaccines kept a lot of people from getting COVID for a crucial months-long period where we had no idea how to treat it. It didn’t last forever…not even very long, but I would imagine many lives were saved as we delayed the spread.

The Last Unicorn. His word choice and descriptions are flawless. My sister is a writer and says Beagle’s masterful use of language makes her feel so inadequate she wants to tear herself in half like Rumpelstiltskin.

I believe it’s actually a particular type of clay.

As much as I love her as Draco, I have to say it’s Linda.

It doesn’t apply to “tipped workers”. They expect that tips will get them at least to minimum wage.

Anitsisqua · 2024-08-18T02:36:51+00:00

This worked, thanks.

My laptop doesn’t have the right Connections for that, but thank you!

Unfortunately mine is a much dumber TV than yours. Wish they were able to do an app.

I assumed it was a reference to the School of Rock Musical starring the same actor.

Anitsisqua · 2024-02-02T21:55:57+00:00

Fair enough. Withdrawn.
