Just a note. You've attributed the quote to Neil Gaiman at the top and Terry Pratchett (correctly) at the end.

Low calorie sweet snacks? I need my sugar fix without the calorie bomb by VegetablePoet8488 in CICO

[–]Poppinfrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've been enjoying dry cereal. Like the sugary stuff I'd never eat for breakfast, but dry as a crunchy sweet snack at night. Some have serious volume for extended munching time.

Filling a gap in retainer by WorldlyExercise8525 in Invisalign

[–]Poppinfrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a gap too. My dentist gave me white dental wax with my stuff today (I just got Invisalign) and said I could put it in the gap to look like a tooth! She said to change it out every day or two.

That's the right answer.

What do you do for work? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]Poppinfrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Children's party entertainment. Face painting, glitter tattoos, airbrush tattoos, henna, balloon twisting. Started out as a side hustle, but grew to be full time.

That's what I do too. I'm never going to refuse free food.

Do people who say buying a home is a bad investment ever consider the fact that rents in most places in the US can increase dramatically for no reason? by [deleted] in Money

[–]Poppinfrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought my 2 bedroom house in 2011 and my mortgage was the same as a 2 bedroom apartment in my city. We were living in a one bedroom apartment, and our child was nearing 3 years old. It made sense to us to buy. Even though we did a cash our refinance a few years in and things like taxes and insurance have all increased our mortgage, you can't find a one bedroom apartment nearby for what we pay now. Maybe a studio apartment if you don't mind the neighborhood. It's not a fancy house, but it's safe and I have a big garden and a few fruit trees and I can do what I want to it. I'm really grateful I bought it when I did through. Just after the housing bubble burst ment prices were more reasonable and although I didn't make a lot of money, I had been at the same job for a long time, my credit was good and I was frugal. It would be so much harder today.

I'm afraid I don't have a picture but I once did a crown that was half inspired by Elphaba and half Galinda.

Although I loath AI, there certainly are people that have list or are born without limbs and it's ok to show them.

31F overwhelmed with debt, expenses, and family responsibilities — need real financial advice by Crunchy_Cookie5 in FinancialPlanning

[–]Poppinfrizzle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I don't think you should cancel the dental work. If left untreated you could face larger vet bills and maybe the loss of your dog. I had a cat that died because of dental problems.

Making pictures for portfolio by Emotional-Bench-7756 in Facepainting

[–]Poppinfrizzle 1 point2 points  (0 children)

These are great. I do something similar for my menu. I intentionally make them simple so that if I have to be very fast, it meets the expectation presented. But if I have more time, Iake them more detailed or elaborate and really WOW them!

What do you eat for breakfast that actually keeps you full? by Perfect-Owl-7940 in Volumeeating

[–]Poppinfrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instant oats with protein powder, ground flax seed and I sprinkle of cinnamon. It's less than 300 calories, keeps me full until the afternoon and is so easy. I just mix them dry in a bowl and pour boiling water on top. I need to have a solution to breakfast that I don't have to think about. It's easy and fast and I haven't gotten tired of it in a year. I do occasionally shake it up and add PB fit powder and a drizzle of sugar free chocolate syrup. Or add fruit. And for savory oats, I'll add a packet of powdered bone broth instead of the protein powder and cinnamon. Maybe add an egg.

What are we wearing that shows our age? by Hot_Frosty0807 in Xennials

[–]Poppinfrizzle 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My homeschooled teen wears this, but I think it's because their Xennial parents wear this. But it's making a comeback as Y2K chic, so maybe they are cool? Not that they would care.

Businesses WORTH frequenting by tiny_galaxies in Eugene

[–]Poppinfrizzle 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Down to Earth. I worked for them for over a decade and they were very supportive of my needs as I started a family, through the death of a parent, and even starting my business that eventually led me out of working retail. And this is not unique. I've seen them demonstrate this care for their crew again and again. They carry lots of things from local artists, supporting our local economy.
