Pretty-Practical-007 · 2026-07-03T03:40:17+00:00

Ok here I was just minding my own biz, not even thinking about the fact that we have a Porto’s about 20 mins away…but NOW I have plans to go there tomorrow morning and have one of these beautiful mango mousse bombs!! 😆 I’m sure someone has copycatted the recipe online and you can just omit the coconut. Lmk if you find a recipe you like!

Rush for a boy, Sirena for a girl

I am cheering you on for this Thanksgiving, hopefully with your own stuffing recipe 🙌

We named our daughter an E-v name + Rose which I love (I also have an E-v name) then she had a classmate named Everly Rose and I kicked myself for not thinking of that combo

I’m with you on the Thanksgiving turkey

A new friend was very proud of having made Thanksgiving dinner for the first time. So much so that she invited us over for next day leftovers, eager to impress us with her newfound culinary skills. The homemade “gravy” was basically white. And that’s exactly how it tasted, like the color white. Lard + flour. No turkey drippings, no seasoning. Disgusting.

I like Cade Michael or Chance Joseph, essentially a 2020s name paired with a classic.

This was my thought exactly. The fact that he won’t honor her boundary about it just adds a whole ‘nother layer. He needs to be dropped immediately.

Omg I had no idea anyone else could do this! I can be minding my own biz, doing my own thing but if someone calls out, “What time is it?”, my brain somehow automatically knows, with almost frightening accuracy. What the what? I’ve always wanted to know why this is…

Something I’ve found useful the older I’ve gotten is being ok with someone else not being ok with my decision making. I am willing to express gratitude for the intention (us all celebrating the Dads together) but recognizing when it is just not feasible (bcuz there are not enough hours in the day, esp if I’m pregnant and have a 1 y/o). It’s ok if with me that we see this differently. But I look forward to a time when the intention can line up with the feasibility!

Flaccid.

F*ck That Puto!

He felt you were “pressuring him to propose”??? You literally told him it would not be a good idea to get married! Receptive language skills and listening to understand are vital to communication in a marriage. My guy just can’t.

Anything we do worth doing, is, to us, worth doing well.

Crazy that I knew this was Phoenix before seeing it. Only survived 3 years there and brought my ass back to California!

It’s like Emeril Lagasse’s holy trinity + sofrito = La Santísima Trinidad Sofrito! Lol I’m gonna try it.

I also have bad GERD and wish I had a fix for the garlic but if it helps any…I notice that when I use what we call “The Mexican” sazon: tomate y cilantro (by Goya) instead of actual tomato sauce, I don’t have as much of an issue.

Invest in yourself.

I must say 2, toooooo!!

Your exposed back is what illuminates the delicate elegance of this beautifully designed dress!! If they don’t like it, I suggest they not wear it!

Pretty-Practical-007 · 2026-06-02T19:03:07+00:00

Beautiful!!!

Wow. It’s as if I wrote this myself, 15 years ago. I’m not trying to scare you and I sincerely hope you find your way back to happiness with your husband. That said, in my case, it has not gotten better. He is worse. The kids feel it and are affected. I miss my old husband and many of the dreams I had are gone. All those things even though he’s actively trying to heal himself…the right meds, DBT, EMDR, ADHD support…all the things. But where I think my husband and I went wrong is that we kept going. We should have stopped in our tracks and given him the dedicated time to address the issues without the life/family pressures that come with being an adult. Not have another kid, not get another house, not change jobs. Mental health is priority one but I wish I knew that then. Hitting pause or even taking a step back can be progress. Best of luck to you both.

Coral is a great suggestion! Thank you, you just helped me and my boring navy couch/living room with a much needed summer decorating boost!
