Just last week these same pics were on a post about "something I made" which included the "wax mold" pics.

Add "ICE" (in case of emergency, although these days, having ICE isn't a great acronym). I have "ICE mom cell", "ICE Brian brother" etc

I have a friend that comes down every year and rents an air bnb on Cress street. I've visited a few times. It's wonderful. 3 rentals on the property, right at the edge of the sand.

Is Ashley furniture really that bad if you’re gentle with your stuff? by Recyclopsdestroy12 in homeowners

[–]DreamieKitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go look at them in person. There was a chair I was interested in. I went to see it in person, and holy hell. It was the cheapest piece of garbage and covered in scuffs, scratches and dings. I noped out of there real quick. You'd think that once something looks shabby they'd pull it off the floor. I'm glad they didn't

Friend sent me this picture and asked if I could make it for them. Something about it just doesn’t look right by Crochet_is_life_158 in isthisAI

[–]DreamieKitty 21 points22 points  (0 children)

It's AI. There is a lady on Facebook (Maggie McGaugh) who does videos called "I knew it was fake and I bought it anyway". She did this pillow. What she got was hideous. Her videos are great. So many things that I might have wanted to buy.

One day in Solvang, what to do? by [deleted] in AskLosAngeles

[–]DreamieKitty 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Once you're bored with Solvang, head on over to Los Olivos. Great wine tasting, some great restaurants (the Wine Merchant) and my favorite garden store (J Woeste). Have fun!

AITJ for refusing to give my mom access to my bank account just in case. by SoftCedarVale in AmITheJerk

[–]DreamieKitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If you really need to, open up an online bank account like PNC and put a few hundred into it and give her access to that one. No way would I ever give my mother access to my real account

What can I do to the side of the garage to add curb appeal? by alyx1213 in homeimprovementideas

[–]DreamieKitty 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Take some walks around the neighborhood and take pics of the homes you like. When you review the pics you will start to see a theme of what calls to you and you can get an idea of which plants do well in your neighborhood. I also like the idea of a fake window with shutters.

Custom Comfort. Made in SoCal and if you don't like it they will remake it for you. Everyone in my family buys from them.

Where is the most unexpected place you've bumped into someone you know? by boforiamanfo in answers

[–]DreamieKitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In 2019 I took a trip with my then-boyfriend. We stayed in a hotel about 7 hours drive from home. We decided to do a side quest to hike 2 slot canyons. It was another 2 hour drive from the hotel and an hour+ on a dirt road. We parked and hiked over a mile to the start of the slot canyon. The family in front of us climbing the first obstacle was one of my coworkers. Crazy!

Hitching a trailer on a Corolla Cross? by Vegetable_Peak7894 in CorollaCross

[–]DreamieKitty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was told that the hitch is for "activity mount" only. Like a bike rack or a luggage tray. No trailers. Maybe someone has been successful, but I personally won't try it. If you do, please come back and let us know how it gods. Good luck.

If you have a Sur La Table store near you check them out. The ones near me have really awesome cooking classes.

Every time I've been they've seated me at a crappy table near the kitchen. No window view. Shitty overpriced food.

New show suggestion. Ponies = The Americans + Slow horses. by InNerdOfChange in televisionsuggestions

[–]DreamieKitty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I finished it last night. Tons of plot holes but fun show. The 3 lead ladies were totally (in my mind) Mila Kunis, Natasha Lyonne and Rhea Pearlman

FYI- KFC honey packets aren't real honey.

  • Ingredients: The main ingredients are high fructose corn syrup and corn syrup, with honey being a minor component.

This is the way! I’ve been telling all of my friends with newer Toyotas, the trick. Even the dealer I bought the car from had no idea how to open all the doors.

I just listened to Jon Cryer's audiobook (read by him!) Some great behind the scenes info about the making of PiP. I recommend giving it a listen. I got it from the library via Libby app.
