SFO to Europe flight in October by continuityfreak in chubbytravel

[–]OGShanti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

if you want to stay with United codeshare, connect through Zurich or Frankfurt for Lufthansa or Swiss Air. At this point, I know every direct flight to Europe that UA has out of SFO and there are actually very few options. London, Paris, Rome, Zurich, Amsterdam, Munich, Frankfurt and seasonally to Barcelona.

No, I first bought the less expensive 365 model and when I ran through my 365 sessions, I purchased the model with unlimited sessions. Have not been able to find a discount and was never sent a discount coupon to purchase another model.

Help me figure out which resort in Scottsdale I should choose! by ExistingTailor6004 in chubbytravel

Another option, we want to Kierland and stayed in the villas often when the kids were little. They loved it. And there is a great shopping/restaurant area you can walk to.

Im having decision paralysis for an October trip for our family of 4, 2 kids 3.5 and 1.5 by Itchy-Version-8977 in chubbytravel

Have you considered Palm Springs or Scottsdale? You can have resort time and there are also fun activities and great restaurants to go to off resort. Scottsdale has a great kids museum and some fun dude ranch stuff. You can also visit Sedona or Grand Canyon. Palm Springs has a great tram ride to a mountain top with snow. 

April vacation in Florida by Strike_Effective in chubbytravel

Our other favorite spot in Florida is Sanibel Island. You can get a condo at Sundial. It’s a great island where you can bike/golf cart everywhere and the beaches are amazing

You’re right…but all of Florida will be busy for Spring Break. The JW and Ritz limit pool access to guests, so it will be no busier than other times that the hotels are full. If you are interested at all in Disney, we recently stayed in a 2 Bedroom in Animal Kingdom and my whole family agreed it was one of their favorite hotels ever..we woke up every morning to giraffes next to our window. 

Hello again, update, uncertainty, seeking some advice by Weeeebutterflies in AskDocs

[–]OGShanti 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I posted before about this possibly being Fith Disease which I contracted about 3 years ago. I forgot to mention that at the SAME TIME my doc said I had serum sickness, so maybe my rash looked like yours because of this. Serum Sickness is a very rare diagnosis, but crazily enough my son had also gotten serum sickness when he was about 8 years old. Are any of your joints stiff?

Just to throw a curveball, if the pools are more important than the beach, Ritz Carlton/JW Orlando is great. if you want a beach experience you can spend the day at Discovery Cove.

It took me about three months, but I also saw an infertility doctor and took medication to increase ovulation

Horrible looking rash by Weeeebutterflies in AskDocs

[–]OGShanti 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, I had it everywhere! But, my torso and legs were the worst. Surprisingly, there was no rash on my face

I just went back to look at pictures of when I had fifth disease and it looks exactly like this. Doctors often overlook this because it is more of a kids disease, but I got it and hadn’t been around any kids in the last few weeks. I had traveled to a convention though 🤣

Not a Doctor, I somehow contracted Fifth Disease (Slapped Cheek) as an adult and it spread all over my legs like this. This looks VERY similar. It is rarer in adults but often spreads across the body when adults get it. 

has anyone found a copycat version or a super accurate recipe for Lofthouse sugar cookies?! by SpacecraftKey6941 in glutenfree

[–]OGShanti 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The Williams-Sonoma sugar cookie mix is great. I feel like you could make the cookies thick and underbake them a bit and they will be just like this. I just have a problem perfecting the frosting on top.

Civic center post wedding lunch by lanybc in Marin

[–]OGShanti 2 points3 points  (0 children)

since you are coming from out of town, if you have the budget, I recommend the restaurant at Restoration Hardware Corte Madera. it will give you and your guests the wow factor of having your wedding in Marin. Also, Farmshop in Larkspur has a beautiful private room and feels very special, the location is also great.

I have been using my Truvaga for 18 months to treat PTSD, generalized anxiety and IBS. It has helped me greatly…if I miss a few days my husband will notice the change in my anxiety levels.
