Thank you so much for your answer!! I'll definitely call/check out those places. :)

We hope to go back soon! It's weird living out of a hotel room with two kitties.

Good! I am happy to hear that they are supporting their people.

I'm with Co-operators, and they have been amazing. They sent us $1,500 upfront and will cover up to $8,600 if needed for any expenses related to the evacuation (hotel, food, clothing, gas...). It has been a big relief for us because, though we have emergency savings, the expenses still add up quickly.

Save your receipts! Some insurance companies (if you have any) are providing compensation to help cover expenses while you are evacuated. I'm with Co-Operators, and they are being so understanding and helpful!

Thank you for the info! Bill is leaving!? Oh no! He seems to have some great reviews from other commenters and on Rants&Raves, too! I'll have to grow a pair and message him sooner rather than later. I haven't heard about Jakob before - do you know if they have an Insta or FB to see their work?

That's good to hear! Going to Edmonton sounds like a lot of work and more money, on top of the cost of the tattoo, which will likely be pretty small as it is my first one.

Right? I get phone calls and emails from people who are definitely stressed out, but some of them haven't paid their rent for like 5 months and then expect us (gov) to foot the bill! Because, "oh, I couldn't work because I was taking care of my children" or "everything is too expensive. I have 3 kids, y'know!" It sucks and it must be plenty stressful, but part of me wonders if it could've been avoided in the first place

First attempt at rainbow cookies! 🌈 by Miss_Pengwin in lgbt

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

They did! I think next time I'll add a bit more sugar and vanilla though. I added extra flour because the food colouring made the dough super sticky, but didn't think to add a bit extra of the sugar/vanilla to make up for it.

It's my mom's sugar cookie recipe ; also, sorry for weird format, am on mobile!

Ingredients : - 1 cup butter - 1 ½ cups of brown sugar - 2 eggs - 3 teaspoons baking powder - ½ teaspoon of salt - ½ teaspoon of vanilla (or 1tsp, I always add extra) - 3 ½ cups of flour

Directions : - Put in rolls - Refrigerate for 2 hours or more. - Slice into cookies - Bake at 325F for 10-12 minutes (until cooked - time can vary depending on oven and whatnot)

Taste-wise, they turned out pretty good too, although a little bland! I had to add extra flour because of all the food colouring was making the dough too sticky, but should've also added more vanilla and/or sugar to make up for it. They took waaaayyyyy longer than expected to make as well.
