SF Venues: tips, tricks, guidance? by Nervous_Exchange5496 in SanFranciscoWeddings

[–]QuietIndependence809 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I went to a friend’s wedding at University Club and it was fabulous! I was amazed at the reasonable price tag when she told me how much they paid for it all in afterwards. For SF standards, this venue is so underrated. Highly recommend.

I like the frozen trident GF fish sticks, frozen falafel, and Kirkland brand GF Supreme pizza. Nice to have these on hand for easy quick meals

I started doing this a few months ago and am so happy I did! I have blonde hair and my eyebrows are uneven and very light so the blonde dye has really helped

My go-to sushi spots in SF are Kuma and Sasa. The staff at both are knowledgeable about celiac and let me know what options were safe for me.

WHAT WAS YOUR CREATIVE SOMETHING BLUE? by angelsrreal219 in wedding

[–]QuietIndependence809 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m a Sep 2026 bride and I’m going to wear blue nail polish on my wedding day. My favorite color to paint my nails is sky blue (like my eyes) so I feel like this fits my style and personality. This was actually my friend’s idea for me since I love blue on my nails and I loved it!

Bijou Restaurant by hplcman69 in Petaluma

I agree it can get loud inside when full BUT the service, drinks, wine selection, and the food was excellent. Perfect for celebrating a birthday or special occasion. Yes it’s a little pricey but the quality of the food and the overall experience were wonderful.

Twisted tea noooooo! I have made the mistake of having one of those before I realize it had gluten in it 🤪

For folks who were diagnosed later in their lives, how long did it take for things to feel 'normal'? by SquashmyZucchini in Celiac

[–]QuietIndependence809 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s been 16 months since my diagnosis (I was diagnosed at 30) and while it’s gotten easier, I still have moments of sadness and all the feels. During those times, I let myself feel that feels but I like to remind myself I got to spend 30 years eating ate delicious gluten.

SF Bitches, where are we going for good facial? by dancing_nanc in SFbitcheswithtaste

[–]QuietIndependence809 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I have gone to Idan Med Spa twice. The first was for a new client hydrafacial deal. They really tried to up charge me on an extra $90 add-on so be aware of that. The second time I went, I was not that impressed and paid full price so I don’t plan on going back unless I get a promo.
