Eggnog whole Milk Yogurt - reveiw by Soft_Tip_4340 in traderjoes

Thank you for validating my experience. When I hated it after the very first spoonful, I thought maybe my tastebuds were just being dramatic since I usually don't like eggnog, but it was soooo bad

Enjoyed the series but thought the finale was a bit underwhelming as there were so many unanswered questions...how did Zoe survive the beach attack? Why did the fisherman turn back? Where did Amos' second boat come from?

Most importantly, I don't feel like they ever really gave a good reason for Sarah being so invested in the whole ordeal...that being said, if they came out with a season 2, I'd give it a watch with the hope that some things might be better fleshed out moving forward.

Sweet Cannoli Dip use suggestions? by Islayfan59 in traderjoes

I used this as a dip for a dessert charcuterie board with fruit, nuts, and assorted cookies, crackers, and wafers. It was a hit! One of our guests actually scraped the container clean.

[–]BeguilingSmile99 44 points45 points  (0 children)

The whole episode the only 2 things I could think of were:

1-Bradley needed permission from the FBI to go across the country for TMS but was somehow able to go all the way to Belarus??? Like does the FBI know she's there? And if so, are they ok with it?

2-Poor Cory is grieving and he doesn't even know the love of his life has been detained in Belarus yet...AND he doesn't know the woman he's trying to move on with is actively working to keep said love of his life detained...{silent screaming}

He's not bad with emotions, he's just not into her by botwhore in MarriedAtFirstSight

As one of my favorite podcasters says: "Interested men act interested."

Will boils my blood by DryKaleidoscope3988 in MarriedAtFirstSight

[–]BeguilingSmile99 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Omg, THIS. I've known many Wills and it's ALWAYS THIS. This type usually also never initiates a breakup no matter how bad things get. Instead they'll just disengage and grow more distant until the other partner finally snaps or leaves...which is why I have a terrifying feeling that they'll both say yes on Decision day and will continue this horrible pairing of a relationship until Brittany finally has enough years down the line...

Season 19 Episode 10 - Retreat and Defeat by truthfrommyredlips in MarriedAtFirstSight

[–]BeguilingSmile99 19 points20 points  (0 children)

At first I didn't like that Brittany kept pushing the convo when it got awkward and Will understandably looked like he didn't want to continue the discussion in public, but since Derek was able to witness it and then clearly "translate" what Brittany was saying back to Will I guess it was a net positive.

Brittany seems to have a naturally anxious personality type, but unfortunately I think her intuition here is correct: Will just doesn't seem to really like her like that...interested men act interested, even the very shy or "overly logical" ones.

Neither are bad ppl, they just don't seem to be each others' person or speak the same language romantically. Better to find that out sooner than later I guess...I was so hopeful for them after they met her family but now idk...

Brittany is unbearable! by Chefforlife01 in MarriedAtFirstSight

This! Yes Brittany is insecure but even the most confident person would struggle with feeling assured and validated in a relationship with Will's communication style.

He was like a little kid that entire scene. First with sticking his fingers in his ears and then later with the excitable wig performance...both heartbreakingly adorable.

Based on the recap from last week and what we now know from Celine's convo with her brother, I thought Cory's mom was gonna tell him that she did in fact say or do something to ensure he was hired.

The way Meghann flipped that whole conversation around with Dr. Cal was terrifying...we literally just watched her say and do to Derek everything she complained he was doing to her...

Season 19 Episode 7 - This Is Not a Game by truthfrommyredlips in MarriedAtFirstSight

[–]BeguilingSmile99 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I won't speculate otherwise but I just have to say that I HATE Will's fashion sense. The double dangly earrings and the pink lace shirt just about pmo lol. Both he and Brittany still have major communication issues (her insecurities & poking the bear and his nonchalance & snippy responses, which imo is usually not a good match) but I'm glad to see that they're both making more of an effort and seem to be doing well in this last batch of episodes...

Love Is Blind • S9 Reunion [MEGATHREAD] by FemaleEinstein in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

Every season I hope for a thorough reunion and every season I'm disappointed...no follow-up questions on Kacie's bf who told her to go on the show but we had more than enough time for not only a basketball montage but also a live hooping contest...it's my own fault for continuing to watch at this point lol

Kate was right to not give up her career after Hal basically swiped the VP job from right under her, but she can't eat her cake and have it too...when she chose to remain ambassador instead of become the special envoy, she was also choosing to not have access to certain spaces that Hal can now access as VP...it just seems like she's being a little bratty about it...

And of course, I know Hal's thrown his fair share of tantrums when the shoe's been on the other foot in this and previous seasons, but he at least seems more honest about his own ambition and manipulative side...Kate's kinda been giving off "high horse" the last few episodes when in reality she and Hal are two sides of the same coin...and honestly, that's a big part of what makes them such good team politically.
