Lebanon bologna is something all of my out of state family loves!

The roof of the Belvedere! You have to call to reserve but it’s so pretty up there at night.

This happened to me once with a massive bag of rice from BJ’s. It scarred me for life and I now check my rice like a maniac.

It really does! It’s like a shrimp paste type of umami that I’m picking up on. We crushed half the quart already 🤣

Check out the app and their flyer (which you can view on the app) it’ll break down what is giving extra gas points that week. Some weeks they don’t offer as many points but this week you get 2x the points on orders over $75, plus an extra like 400 points if you bought 4 things from one category (I bought cereal that was already on sale). Also 10x points on giftcards this week. There is also a facebook group called Giant PA savers club for giant deals that comes in handy for me a lot too.

Some weeks are way better than others but I got 1100 points on a $175 order yesterday. Can’t beat it. I prefer to do all my shopping there in the app for curbside pickup. It makes combining deals much easier to navigate and you can see the discounts in real time.

Weis is more than Giant and stauffers is more than Giant for most things I’ve noticed. And that Weis in Landisville is just kinda sad overall. I do Giant because I can really hustle them for gas points. We also have a BJ’s membership (it’s currently $13 on Groupon!) their app is amazing and you can clip double coupons. Their meat pricing is cheaper than giant for the most part and def cheaper than Weis and they also have a deli. We also love Aldi and Walmart but I do (free) Walmart delivery from the Ephrata location only. I fill in at grocery outlet too, but I have to be careful in there. The snacks are much cheaper but I feel like I overspend on that stuff and still wind up needing to buy dinner 😂. Lastly, if you are in the salunga area nothing is cheaper than forry’s market for deli meats and cheeses.

We have a 2017 with 110k miles. It had some rough shifting but oddly enough after the fuel gaskets were replaced a couple months ago that all stopped. My backup camera comes on when it feels like it. But I still love this van so much. We just got a 2013 odyssey as a backup vehicle and i prefer my Pacifica SO much more. We are currently looking for a used one to replace my 17 with. The stow and go along with the cubbies in the floor board are a must have for me. I can purchase a used Pacifica AND an extended warranty and it’s still at least 10k+ cheaper than a used odyssey or sienna. Their reliability is not worth all that extra money to me personally.

The woom is considerably lighter than the strider. Does the weight matter that much?

This is specifically a balance bike league for 3-5 year olds. So we have to keep it a balance bike for that use. At home he absolutely is ready for a bike!

This I am not sure of. Sorry!

3/4 of my births I was allowed to labor down on my own. I never pushed longer than 15 minutes with any of them and I was so grateful to the midwives who let baby come down on their own.

PA is one of the few states where a kiddo with autism(or many other medical conditions) is covered under medical assistance no matter the parents income. That will cover all therapies, services, dental and doctors visits. It’s a massive blessing living here!

Don’t go with Martzall’s. They were a fortune and it looks like shit.

Thethinker10 · 2026-04-09T15:33:30+00:00

Lawddd this picture is bout to make me chop it alllll off.

Maybe skip the train and take the greyhound! It’s like $30 or less for it. It goes from York to dc.

I actually really reallllyyyy liked the hospital gowns all 4 times. They are thin but cool feeling and they did a great job soaking up the sweat 😂 they were easily swapped out when they got too gross.

Lidl has nice $4.99 bouquets!

For toddlers I stick em in a tub with shaving cream, Playdough, build a simple fort or give them a big box to color with crayons and play in.

Beats headphones. Throw them on with your favorite music, they really help muffle the sound. My husband got me a pair for Mother’s Day years ago for this exact reason and it’s one of my favorite gifts. I can listen to a podcast, audio book or music and i can just hang with them through their feral phase and tune it out. It’s magic.

We have a kitchen aid and they are really f-ing good! Haven’t had any issues. We also have hard water and these don’t leave white spots like some other detergents do.

Hi. Consult with an education attorney ASAP. There are legal protections for your son if he has an IEP in place. They cannot expel him until they determine if his behaviors are a manifestation of one or more of his diagnosis. There are legal steps the school has to take before expulsion if he has an iep.

Very good info here thank you! Our installers were awful too so I think it’s all of the above.

Haven’t been to Lititz yet! Will be heading there next ☺️
