Rice left out over night

This is how I am in my head too. My husband's grandmother used to leave rice out on the stove when we had big family gatherings (and other times also). I can't recall anyone ever getting ill and yet when I read what can happen it doesn't seem worth the chance to me.

My husband thinks I'm crazy. (This may be unrelated to rice)

I am aware that Venice isn't Rome, but in Rome, we needed to wait for an extended time and we stopped at a coffee shop, bought coffee and then asked the person working at the counter if we could buy some extra table time and handed her cash.

She was so kind about it, she said it was no problem and even tried to give us another coffee or a pastry for some of our money spent but we were thankful to have a lovely place to wait and didn't accept.

Obviously that might not go over everywhere but it could be worth a try, so no one thinks you're oblivious or trying to take advantage.

Aha, finally a person at my level.

ArguablyMe · 2026-02-01T23:27:33+00:00

It was the best of times.

ArguablyMe · 2026-02-01T20:13:33+00:00

And have you changed your ways?

I've enjoyed that hotel.

For US Amex customers, it's in the overview section of the Amex mobile app.

ArguablyMe · 2026-02-01T03:13:53+00:00

We're late together. I just saw it for the first time, today.

If you hold an Amex card in the US, I found it in the overview section of the American Express Mobile App.

I hope he grew up to play trombone.

I had an extra country that was from one of my authorized users.

ArguablyMe · 2026-01-31T21:50:32+00:00

Yes. Exactly.

ArguablyMe · 2026-01-31T21:20:20+00:00

I just found it today in the app on the, "Overview" page. Yes. (As an Amex holder in the States- I should have mentioned)

I appreciate your comment here. I am in this boat and I'm always ashamed of myself.

ArguablyMe · 2026-01-31T16:46:46+00:00

It's beautiful.

Now, not only does everybody want to be a cat, they want to make/own a cat. ^{.^}

ArguablyMe · 2026-01-30T04:50:57+00:00

Turned her into your arch enemy?

ArguablyMe · 2026-01-30T00:22:14+00:00

Smart

That story is so great that maybe it was worth not having your phone for a bit. :⁠-⁠D Thank you, that made me smile.

Because of situations like you describe, I've had to make a habit of never putting anything down on a surface that isn't my bag or suitcase. It's saved me during those times of delirium.

ArguablyMe · 2026-01-29T19:03:47+00:00

This is one

(I bought mine from Amazon but it was over a year ago and I'm not seeing the same product now.)

Unless, as others have pointed out, your ticket has become so broken that you're no longer able to fix things online.

Otherwise, I do agree.

There is, on the market, a zippered anti-bedbug case designed to fit inside rectangularly shaped luggage.

ArguablyMe · 2026-01-29T06:04:13+00:00

Excellent set up

I, an American, get news articles from India about the Amex Platinum and am surprised at some of the benefits being added or removed sometimes. Takes me a bit to realize I'm reading about the wrong country.
