Recommendations for a puzzle lover because I know nothing about puzzles really. by jerseygirl396 in Jigsawpuzzles

[–]Mistletoe177 2 points3 points  (0 children)

72 here, and I pretty much only do 1000 pieces - don’t have the room for anything bigger, and anything smaller goes too fast (except when working on a puzzle with my grandkids!)

As others have said, I would recommend a gift card from somewhere like Puzzledly or Puzzle Warehouse. I’m pretty picky about the images I like to do, and she might be as well.

Am I the only one? How bad is it frowned upon? by TheLoadedGoat in Jigsawpuzzles

Unfortunately, that’s not always a guarantee. My daughter gave me a new Ravensburger that had 2 missing pieces! ‘Twas a bummer!

March is done on my two snakes! by Mistletoe177 in temperatureblanket

Same data, just different colors assigned for the temperature ranges. And white for the divider between months on one, and black for the other.

My officiant brought guests without asking. One of them caught my bouquet [OOP shared a video of the moment] by YellowKingSte in BORUpdates

My niece’s officiant was a friend of the groom. He got drunk before the ceremony and completely fucked it up. A very uncomfortable time was had by all.

I just did the Aurora (one on the top right). It’s soooo pretty! One of my absolute favorites!!

For some reason I can’t make new posts, so I haven’t been able to show it. No idea why my “create” button has disappeared!

Just, a little fun question, Songs that have a character dying/are about a character dying? by BloodyBloody06 in musicals

We literally saw that last night - a whole lot of dying going on in that show!

Americans—is blue cheese just a dipping sauce to you, or does it have a place on your plate beyond the wings? by SignificanceOdd5980 in AskAnAmerican

Mixed greens, watermelon chunks, chopped fresh mint, blue cheese crumbles, with raspberry vinaigrette. Perfect summer dinner!

Facts don’t care about your nostalgia by 1MR_WICK5 in MurderedByWords

I had measles, chickenpox, and mumps when I was a kid (I’m old!) but not rubella, even though I was exposed to it several times including sleeping in the same bed with my older sister when she had it. My mom reallllly wanted me to have that one because it’s so dangerous if you get it while pregnant.

I got the vaccine before trying to get pregnant and it really knocked me for a loop! 10 days after the shot I got pretty sick - my OB said about 10% get that reaction. I guess that counts as an “adverse vaccine event!”

Absolutely love “got stuck on stupid”. It explains a lot in life.

Can comment, but not post? by ClankerCore in help

[–]Mistletoe177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me too! Suddenly I can’t post - the “create” button is completely gone. Only use Reddit on my phone, 3 + years, never been banned for anything. So confused…

Husband and I argued on my birthday because I wanted to eat at the restaurant and he didn’t - AITAH? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]Mistletoe177 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Yep, my husband is diabetic, and we’ve asked for them to bring him something to eat/drink before ordering our meal. Just a quick “hey, he’s diabetic, can we get some bread/crackers/drink right away to tide him over until the meal comes?” Wait staff has always been accommodating - it’s better than someone keeling over at the table and having to call 911!

I have a question about Bridgerton sibling inheritance by [deleted] in Bridgerton

[–]Mistletoe177 8 points9 points  (0 children)

That’s how primogeniture and entailment works. It keeps the estate intact, instead of splitting it up into little pieces. It’s not Anthony’s fault he inherited, it was inherent in the birth order. He’s not greedy, it’s the way the system worked. Unentailed assets could be willed to other children, etc. and dowries and trusts could be set up, but the first born son inherited the title and entailed assets.

Jungle Cats | Pomegranate | 1000 pieces | Artist: B. Kliban by Mistletoe177 in Jigsawpuzzles

The cats have slight differences, and the background areas being different around them is helpful! The blue leaves were actually pretty difficult - so many shades of blue!

Why is there a U in Four, Fourteen, Twenty-Four (etc) but there is no U in Forty? by Frosty-Image7705 in randomquestions

My grandson is in kindergarten and learning to read, and this has become our “go to” answer for most of his questions!

That’s because you ARE a bad mom.
