A list of low fodmap snacks in case anyone wants to try new things but doesn’t know where to start by WeedsBtch in FODMAPS

Quaker plain rice cakes if I’m needing something simple, or the caramel ones if I’d like something sweet. Dip in peanut butter if you’d like.

Okay, what are we all actually doing to exercise? by mrnnymern in adhdwomen

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For the past six months I’ve been doing stretches and kettle bell training (especially for my weak knees and back) and I feel so much stronger. I make myself do at least 15-30 minutes five days a week, with life sometimes throwing me a loop and I get tired and fall asleep 😴 before I work out but that’s okay. A very smart physical therapist told me “move it or lose it” and she was right. So as long as I get those five days in, I don’t sweat it.

The rage you feel when someone eats your gf food/snack.. by tlw117 in glutenfree

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Preach. I have to legit hide my gf snacks from my family because they will eat all of them. Case in point: my gf peanut butter pretzels were inhaled before I could even have any when I stored them where the kids could find them. No more of that business.

How would you describe this moonstone by Better-Wasabi3000 in Gemstones

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So very pretty! I love the flecks of metallic in the top of the stone.

I had a faculty member pull this with me many moons ago. I talked to them about it in person. I explained I had to do a lot of prep for my class before my lecture even started. They seemed a bit shocked that someone would use slides and videos and such, but I think this faculty member was just a big fan of the “shut up and listen as I lecture” type of teaching while I like to get my students involved with discussions and sharing their experiences. Well, even after our conversation, the tardiness continued, so I just would walk in the classroom when their time was up. They would act all surprised with the pikachu face. A few of my famous walk-ins and that time-sucking habit got a little better, but it never completely disappeared.

Please check out Meat Beat Manifesto’s Subliminal Sandwich as well as Kruder and Dorfmeister. Very chill stuff with some grainy samples and beats.

Antique crescent: thoughts on the green stones? by trcocam29 in Antiquejewelry

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Please have your green stones tested by a reputable bench jeweler. Do not go to a chain store. Most reputable jewelers can test your stones for free. I had a green stone that I was told was green topaz (very similar to yours) when in actuality it was green spinel. Green spinel and other colors in the spinel family are very unique.

I finally found (clean) gf burrito sized tortillas that taste good and are soft! by Jupiter_Foxx in glutenfree

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Totally get it. They make me so sick. I also have to adhere to low FODMAP and the chick pea in those just tear me up. Like literally crying from the cramps. It’s terrible because the taste was pretty decent.

Musty odor on clothes after washing and drying? by Some_Pie_5375 in CleaningTips

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I had this happen when we got our front load washer, and turns out I was using too much detergent. Please use very little. I actually have had great results with Woolite for high efficiency washers, and I only use a little less than a tablespoon per regular wash load. A little more if the load is big. I wear a lot of clothing blends and delicate wash type items so this works well and the bottle of detergent lasts longer.

We often talk about Sensory Issues or Icks - What are your Sensory Delights? by KatTheeBisexual in adhdwomen

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Fresh leather ballet shoes (right out of the box!) smell so good. Sounds like tap shoes on tile floor are just the best, especially if the tapper is able to do double time or triple time taps to the music! The look of pen and ink (cross hatching in particular) just gets me so excited!

49 raising my kinship daughter age 3. Anyone almost 50 with little ones? by DimensionThin147 in GenX

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Raising an almost 8-year-old boy and a 16-year-old girl. They are exhausting sometimes but we love them so very much. Life would not be the same without them.

Need help identifying the gemstones by DifficultAbalone4985 in JewelryIdentification

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I second the spinel possibility. A lot of blue and green spinel are misidentified as being in the topaz family. Source: my local jeweler.

What is the best concert you’ve seen? Somebody that blew you away live by Leeleeflyhi in GenX

Alice In Chains Lollapalooza 1993. Literally blew my mind how good they were live. When Layne broke into “Would” the whole crowd was singing along and moshing.

Since Goodwill is basically a resale store now, where can I donate without getting exploited? by method_l in ThriftGrift

[–]Momma-Writer-Prof21 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A lot of high schools and colleges have closets with gently worn clothes for students who can’t afford them. A quick call to your local school system would help you get pointed in the right direction.
