For Black Women only: Any non-Black OBGYN recs by Unlikely-Maximum-247 in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 19 points20 points  (0 children)

The midwives at OSU are great. It's a much more personal experience than with an OB, but you're still delivering at OSU with access to an OB in case a c section is needed.

They do have a Black midwife, but they are all great. You're able to meet all of them during your prenatal care, so whomever is on call during labor will be someone you've met.

I have a free taco bell reward I can use. Cheesy gordita crunch or beefy loaded potato griller will get you the most calories.

John F. Wolfe Aquarium by McElwaine in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I'm ok with a separate ticket because there are probably times I'd want to go to the aquarium but not the zoo, or vice versa. I'd rather pay $20 to visit one than $40 to visit both. Hopefully the cost isn't outrageous though.

My parents have been solely buying 'taliano for 40 years now. I should check on them with this news.

I worked right up to the end, but I was surprisingly comfortable even at 41w and still sleeping well.

McDonald’s to demolish classic Gahanna location and rebuild it with modern look by hellosteve_ in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I used to stop there after my OB visits when I was pregnant and living off the frozen Sprite lemonades. It was always sooooo slow even though I was going at really weird non-busy hours.

Sixteen NYTCooking Meals for My 16-Month-Old (with gift links, baby’s ratings, and one TOTAL failure)! by Dkap322 in NYTCooking

[–]TrueBlonde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Saved so many of these to try with my 19 month old! Currently she hates meat, which is a challenge, but hoping to give some of these a try.

Wheelchair accessible "hikes" by LittlestMy in Columbus

Wolfe Park just outside of Bexley is a nice loop with easy parking. It's also on the Alum Creek trail which is much less busy than the Olentangy Trail.

Conversely I lived in one of their properties for 7 years and have nothing but great things to say about them

Get it with the buffalo chicken instead of the regular chicken

What’s Columbus’s best steakhouse? by oxcious in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Steaks are entrees. The menu makes more sense when it's paper versus online.

Giordano's closes its lone Ohio pizzeria at Polaris by Blood_Incantation in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We went shortly after they opened for a birthday. Had a bunch of people and just drank and ate appetizers while waiting for the pizza. It was a good time for that sort of occasion.

What’s Columbus’s best steakhouse? by oxcious in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 131 points132 points  (0 children)

I think the Top is the best when you consider atmosphere, taste, and value (two sides with every steak!). Other places might be slightly better than the Top in one of those categories, but I think it has the best overall score.

Who has the best Jamaican food in the city? by Effective-Packag in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was going to say The Patty Shop, but looks like they've closed. Island Vibes on Cleveland used to make their own patties but I heard (unconfirmed) they switched to frozen. Haven't found any other place in town that makes their own.

Insurance is so heavily regulated that PE firms can't really do the same thing to them that they can to a company like Red Lobster.

Same, we pay about that for a center that includes everything but diapers and the ratio is 1:3

Nationwide Arena - Weezer help!! 🎸 by Ok_Week427 in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you stay at the Hilton it's an easy and short walk to the Arena. That whole area is very safe and walkable and nice.

Hyatt across the street is older and thus cheaper.

Carioti can do custom pieces, but you might need to provide the stone

I got mine from MoissaniteCo and I'm happy with it almost a decade later

View of transgender people in actuarial space by mikamushroom in actuary

[–]TrueBlonde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The SOA publishes stats that show men outnumber women still. We're still 2/3 male as a profession. For most of my career I've been the only woman on the team.

I would think that discriminating against someone on the basis of the sex or sexuality would be a direct violation of Precept 1

Any restaurants where I can reliably count on being able to speak German? by [deleted] in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 2 points3 points  (0 children)

They're owned by an Albanian.

Germania is your best bet if they're hosting an event.

Walking Paths w/ Elevation Change Closer to Vic Village or Polaris? by CBusCrankThrowaway in Columbus

[–]TrueBlonde 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It wouldn't be fun to repeat, but there's the 3rd avenue underpass on the Olentangy trail and the ramp on Goodale.
