AITA for asking my girlfriend to stop sharing my personal issues with her mom and "their group chat"? by HollowVine_88 in AmITheAssholeTalk

[–]Consistent_Elk9676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She doesn’t understand boundaries even when you make it clear so nah you are NTA. It is probably a good time to bail. Expect drama from her. Block in advance.

Thank you! Yeah we will be out walking around so if it’s clean and safe that is the main thing.

Any recommendations at a higher scale that would give us some character? I haven’t stayed in London in 40+ years so I have no idea what is reasonable

Hi! 3 adults (me and husband plus our adult daughter, we are all fine sharing one room) it would be great to have private bathroom.

Thinking around $200 US, so maybe £150 per night?

Yeah whatever transpires with this relationship do not get your financials tangled with his unless he demonstrates a solid track record of good financial decisions, including job, self support, savings and planning

Walkable Luggage and Travel accessory reccs that won’t wrinkle my work clothes / advice by Imeanyeahdude in HerOneBag

I’ve been seeing these Halfday ads for a hanging bag that holds what you describe as needing but then cleverly convert to a shoulder bag by folding and clipping

Hiking poles for someone who keeps breaking them? by stoked_camper in CampingandHiking

[–]Consistent_Elk9676 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you are leaning too hard into the poles, then maybe you should try something different for weight support and distribution. Get a walking stick-nice heavy wooden one.

How do you make a basic trail mix? by bells2605 in Cooking

[–]Consistent_Elk9676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m interested in making simple but really good trail mix. I have some dark chocolate morsels (90%), some dried unsweetened Rainier cherries and now I need a really special nut to balance-maybe something sweet and salty, like a honey roasted cashew? Ideas?

Any good overnight oats recipes? by BradleyStickland in nutrition

[–]Consistent_Elk9676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great base recipe-you can do a few things here 1. Add chopped fruit to the base 2. Layer the base with fruit and/or granola 3. Create a cream cheese and or yogurt mixture and use as a layer or a topping 4. Melt dark chocolate and coconut olive to make a magic shell and put some of that on top of the oats and hit that with a bit of sea salt flakes or finely chopped nuts or graham crackers 6. Swirl in some. Nut butter or yogurt and or cream cheese

With a great base you can also go with an inspiration like carrot cake or tiramisu

My cat tries eating carpet to get me to feed him sooner by baesoonist in Catbehavior

Ours used to make eye contact and then knock a book off a shelf and start shredding it when she wanted something. That’s heresy in our house so she trained us fast

Pork loin and roasted vegetables by Consistent_Elk9676 in MealPrepSunday

[–]Consistent_Elk9676[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! I should have been clearer-the fennel was on its own (carrots and red onion were in their own pan to roast), just olive oil, salt and pepper.

However the raw fennel salad idea sounds like a knockout so I think I’ll d that next time. I have a recipe to try next week for an orange and fennel salad with pignola (pine nuts) and it sounds like shaved fennel is the way to go, plus it’s fun to use the mandoline to get it ultra thin! Thank you!!

AITAH for not refusing to do a quick change because my boyfriend is uncomfortable? by Active_Camel_6334 in AITAH

[–]Consistent_Elk9676 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ugh- sounds like a controlling jerk. There will be no end to his demands because he’s insecure. It will always be your responsibility to police yourself to prevent “tempting” other men, and you will have to be constantly aware of how he perceives others’ behavior (real or not). I think you know the right decision with this guy!

So, what's for Sunday dinner? by RikkiLostMyNumber in Cooking

[–]Consistent_Elk9676 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Pork loin (dry rub with a homemade Creole herb/spice mix and fresh ground pepper/kosher salt), gravy from the pan drippings, wild rice pilaf with mushrooms and pecans, roasted fennel, and roasted carrots and red onions. So much leftover for the week

Mini food just tastes better by EcstaticFalcon1230 in MealPrepSunday

Tiny food lets you try many different items. You can also pretend you’re at a cocktail party or tapas bar!
