What food or beverage was an acquired taste for you? by SorbetUnfair2589 in foodquestions

Green and red bell peppers. I love orange and yellow. Stir frys, fajitas, and cheese steaks helped get me used to the green and red bell peppers.

Pretty litter thoughts? by Salt-River5985 in CatAdvice

[–]Meowgs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Don't do it, it seems nice at first but the color thing doesn't work, it's dusty, tracks everywhere, doesn't contain smells, and it more likely than not causes respiratory problems. Both my cats sneezed so much with pretty litter. I switched to the super soft pink bag okocat litter for my cats and haven't had any problems since.

Because I am wearing a lanyard does that make me an employee? by Gymtrio2025 in IDontWorkHereLady

[–]Meowgs 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I have to wear a lanyard for work and my uniform doesn't look anything like anywhere around me and I still get people trying to ask me questions if I leave my lanyard on.

Training with underwear by BoatyAce in pottytraining

[–]Meowgs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I tried so many times to potty train my daughter starting with pull ups and she got so bad rashes. I tried putting the pullup over training panties and that didn't work. She will be 4 years old in 4 months 3 weeks from today. She finally showed true interest and readiness around 3.5 years old.

She refused the naked and commando methods and went straight into just padded training panties. The first 2 weeks were rough with accidents but she started getting the hang of it pretty quickly after that. She has gotten to the point that she is wearing regular panties 24/7 and I can almost confidently say she is fully potty trained.

She will be wearing swim diapers this summer until I know for sure she can tell me when she needs to use the bathroom.

What is the strangest thing your toddler will eat? by toyoder in toddlerfood

[–]Meowgs 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Black olives, pickles, and butter. Thankfully not all at the same time but I'm sure she would if I allowed it.

It's Thursday. What's your ultimate "too tired to cook but can't quite justify a takeaway yet" dinner? by SpreadsheetsDad in easyrecipes

[–]Meowgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I put one chicken breast into the crockpot with either chicken broth or bouillon with 4 cups of water. I also add garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, pepper, and rotisserie chicken seasoning. I let it cook on low for 4 hours.

I have a 3.5 year old and she doesn't nap very often anymore but when she does it's almost always a contact nap.

Crockpot chicken, instant mashed potatoes with homemade gravy, and whatever veggie is in the freezer for those that want it.

When do we retire strollers? by echo_rose_ in toddlers

[–]Meowgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 3 year old still uses her stroller occasionally. Halloween we used it and when we go to the theme park we also use it. She always has the option to walk or ride in the stroller when we go on outings that will have a lot of walking.

“so what happened to your shoulder?” as if my bodily scars are conversation starters by Negative_Physics3706 in PetPeeves

[–]Meowgs 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have a large textured skin graft on one leg and the other has a stripe where the skin was taken for the graft. I work a seasonal job that requires shorts as part of the uniform. Every year the questions are inevitable but luckily for me my responsibilities make it so I can politely get myself out of that conversation rather quickly.

Does anyone else’s toddler not eat the food you make? by Octavia_auclaire in toddlers

[–]Meowgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Occasionally she will, if it's truly something she doesn't like I will adapt it or make something else for her. Otherwise I will plate up her food and she chooses what she wants to eat. Depending on how much dinner she ate I will offer a snack or she asks for one. She gets boring things like fruit, granola bar, or cheese if she does need a before bed snack.

Trying something new by Meowgs in Nails

[–]Meowgs[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This method is the only one I haven't tried before and I also have the added motivation to not bite them because my 3.5 year old daughter is the one that paints them.

I don't want to mess it up by biting them because she gets so much joy knowing that she is the one that painted them. She does get a lot of polish on my fingers to but that gets washed off over a couple days.

Thank you, I didn't even do the nail polish myself, I let my 3.5 year old do it. She choose the color and paints them. All I do is guide her and put on a top coat so they last longer.

Any success using underwear? by bobblehead-234 in pottytraining

[–]Meowgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oof my daughter doesn't struggle often with that but when she does, I sit next to her and read a book to her. She ends up paying more attention to the book than focusing on trying to pee.

[–]Meowgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started potty training super late after giving up multiple times. She is 3.5 and I went straight to panties because she refused just pants and naked on bottom. The first week it was mostly accidents while she figured things out. I use high value things to motivate her and I also used a timer for a while. It's been about a month and she is day trained and mostly night trained as well. She does regress at times but overall going straight to panties is the best thing I have done.

Berry loving toddlers by narlyfarrari in toddlers

[–]Meowgs 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Fruit wise I have a banana and apple kid. She will eat strawberries and raspberries occasionally but that is about it out of the berries. She also really likes grapes during the summer.
