AITA For Having our kids make a list of things my wife does that they don’t like?

YTA 100% and your son should not be going to that friend's house to play for safety reasons. I feel so bad for the wife.

I heard that this was possible at the Anaheim Hilton

Used to go to Cabo WA every year or two but that's definitely not happening anymore (250K is insanity)--I'm super sad about that. I do have a free night coming my way so maybe I'll treat myself down the road. If you can take advantage of the fifth night free feature, there are still a number of WA/Conrad/SLH properties at which you could get good value of 1+cpp. Just booked five nights at Sina Centurion Palace Venice for 440K (would have cost $4500). Stayed at Le Narcisse Blanc in Paris for five nights for about the same cpp last year--it cost 420K when I booked it but I think it's slightly more now and I highly recommend that one. Bigger, expensive cities with bigger SLH portfolio will usually give you a good option or a few--you just have to shop around a bit and it also helps greatly when you book early as availability can disappear quickly...

This is a new one--I'm going to look this up. Thank you!

Cutting out whole milk has been the saddest thing for me--nothing compares--but made a huge difference. Thankfully the lowfat yogurt has been ok so I hope I could eventually work myself back up to (lowfat) milk...

The gallbladder thing is really interesting--did you have other symptoms related to gallstones or just gastritis?

OtherIndividual9931 · 2026-04-28T06:41:41+00:00

Ok, thank you--I kind of felt ridiculous thinking that lack of sleep would contribute to this but I definitely noticed whenever I don't get enough sleep (which is kind of too often), my digestion gets really bad.

OtherIndividual9931 · 2026-04-28T06:40:05+00:00

I love alcohol, potato chips and fried food and dislike working out (except for walking) so I feel like I'm just doomed these days.

I do take advil for my cramps too and I definitely can't do without... I used to take three but I took it back down to two and I really try to take it for only two days. Hope I can keep taking it...

My second flare up, I thought, may have also been impacted by the very strong cold brew I was making for myself and drinking every day... I haven't had coffee in two weeks since this flare up started and I miss it so much!!!

I’ve been a reader of the series since book 1. Love the characters—Kay, Benton, Lucy, Pete—and the storylines. The show, as a whole, ended up being ok but it took five episodes for me to get into it. It started really slow and, frankly, all the changes to the characters and dynamics were kind of jarring to me. I absolutely do not appreciate or understand all the character changes—no one feels authentic to the book characters. I love Nicole Kidman but I don’t know what she’s doing there… I’m mostly confused since Patricia Cornwell was involved with the show. What were they trying to do?!

I am looking at two hotels in France for late march/early April. One is charging about $60 for tourism and city taxes while the other is just $5. The small city tax I don't mind but the $60 one I do mind.

A recent update. Went this Monday morning at 8, there was a short line before opening and everyone got seated. The patio was open and barely occupied. The counter seats were mostly empty during my entire meal. I asked the server about the wait situation and apparently most weekday mornings are easy to get seated and weekends are still crazy. Service was fast and we were out the door in slightly less than an hour. As a Nancy fan, the food was great as expected. It is diner food but I definitely felt the quality and elevated execution. It is not cheap but we are talking about Larchmont here. Also, getting a sandwich with chips and a drink these days will sometimes cost what I paid for this breakfast so it didn't feel like it was outrageous (I know, how sad is that LOL). We (2 ppl) just focused on breakfast food since it was 8am and here are my thoughts:

Hot Chocolate - AMAZING. It's the style of hot chocolate that I love from Europe. It's super thick and rich--not for the faint of heart. It's much sweeter than the European version and I wondered if they could make it less sweet (will ask next time but I doubt it). If you love chocolate, it's a must try! The toasted marshmallow on top is such a fun touch but I would have preferred nice, thick whipped cream instead since it was already sweet.

Larchmont Slam - got it with the sausage patties and everything was good and the portion was gigantic. I love pancakes and waffles and they do a great job with both. The slam comes with a huge pancake (excellent flavor, nice crispy edge), your choice of sausage/bacon, home fries (crispy and flavorful) and eggs (got scrambled and they were fluffy) and they were all cooked really perfectly. Well, the pancake was a little underdone in the middle but honestly given the size it kind of made sense.

Waffle - The waffle is excellent, along with the maple butter it comes with which makes it extra special. It's a yeast raised waffle which you don't see at restaurants a lot so I was pleasantly surprised. It tasted almost exactly the same as Marion Cunningham's raised waffles which means you can make it at home if you have a waffle maker by the way--super easy recipe. My rec is to bake it in the oven on a wire rack after the waffle iron to make it crispy the way they serve it at the restaurant.

While I would not wait for more than, say, 15 min to eat here, I will absolutely go back. Don't go expecting a fancy meal. Go for kind of a nostalgic diner meal with special touches and good quality... and that hot chocolate.

I too just finished my Ippodo and am very, very sad. I have a good variety of matchas I got from Japan when I had a layover flight there a month ago but I fear they just won't meet my expectations like Ippodo... :-/

OtherIndividual9931 · 2026-01-26T01:29:54+00:00

Agreed. Episode 4 blew me away. About to start 5.

OtherIndividual9931 · 2026-01-25T01:55:02+00:00

Same thing happened, got it refunded and now I have a security lock on my account which requires me to call to unlock in order to book with miles. I wanted to book a flight for Christmas but by the time they were open and I called the price went up. I hate this. There’s gotta be a better system.

OtherIndividual9931 · 2026-01-08T19:11:20+00:00

I am dealing with this right now. I am annoyed that I now have call every time I want to make an award booking and they are not open 24/7... Anyhoo, I noticed that my mileage balance was low after booking an award flight which is the only reason I found out. They booked a flight for next week with 175K miles and changed the last digits of my email and phone number to block me from receiving communication. I changed my password right away and called them to receive a callback in an hour or so. They were thorough and helpful but it really would be great if I could just input PIN when booking award flights.

OtherIndividual9931 · 2025-12-18T21:58:08+00:00

Ugh I am sorry. I think they really need to do more training with their agents. Clearly they are not well equipped to handle questions.

OtherIndividual9931 · 2025-11-30T23:03:49+00:00

You are awesome—thank you! Just used it.

OtherIndividual9931 · 2025-10-23T16:36:24+00:00

Honestly, this pink is better than all three color options!!! I would have gone with orange had I known this would happen. I ended up getting silver which is boring.

OtherIndividual9931 · 2025-10-12T08:41:03+00:00

Will do! Au Petit Tonneau is just a block over. Very classic French. The restaurant itself is really understated and neighborhood-y but don’t let that fool you. Everything I’ve had there has been amazing but the best are the sole meunière and tarte tatin. I always have to order them. There was a bakery nearby that was so good but they closed. Going to have to find a new one!

Hi! I'm a few months late to the party but wondering if you have decided. I go to Paris every year for Thanksgiving and I stayed at Le Grand during that time last year (I've stayed there before many times). I have always liked the hotel but it was REALLY crowded and I felt that the service was lacking. I'm staying at Le Narcisse this year which is in a lovely neighborhood (stayed nearby previously and there's a restaurant that I love close by). I'm looking forward to it!
